ROGRAMMABLE DRIVE CAPACITY
Using the Mode Select command, the drive can change its capacity to something less than maximum. See the Mode Select
(6) parameter list table in the SAS Interface Manual, part number 100293071. A value of zero in the Number of Blocks field
indicates that the drive will not change the capacity it is currently formatted to have. A number other than zero and less than
the maximum number of LBAs in the Number of Blocks field changes the total drive capacity to the value in the Number of
Blocks field. A value greater than the maximum number of LBAs is rounded down to the maximum capacity.
