Notes:
[1]
If the Disable Page Out (DPO) bit is set to one, no data is cached. The DPO bit is only meaningful if the
RCD bit of Mode Select Page 8 is set false (caching enabled).
[2]
A Force Unit Access (FUA) bit of one indicates that the Write command shall not return Good status until
the logical blocks have actually been written on the media. The FUA bit is only meaningful if the WCE bit
of Mode Sense page 8 is true.
[3]
The Logical Block Address field specifies the starting logical block address at which the target shall read
data from its medium. It also specifies the starting logical block address at which the Xor result data is to
be written to the medium.
[4]
The Transfer Length field specifies the number of blocks to be read from the XPWrite target medium for
the Xor operation. It also specifies the number of blocks to be written to the medium after the Xor opera-
tion.
