4.2.4 Cache function The ODD supports read cache and MO write cache. The read cache consists of the read-ahead cache and the LRU cache that reads write data remaining in the data buffer. The read-ahead cache enables data transfer at almost the same speed as the effective transfer speed during continuous read operation without causing delays resulting from rotation latency.
Host Interface • Data read before power-off • Data stored before media is mounted All buffer data is discarded when: • The power is turned off. • The media is ejected. • A FORMAT UNIT command is received. • The ODD is in standby mode. Buffer data may be discarded when: •...
4.2.6.1 Active mode In active mode, all circuits are enabled and the time for command processing is minimized. 4.2.6.2 Pre-idle mode In pre-idle mode, the read and write circuits are in stopped state. The ODD can receive a command from the host, but since some circuits are stopped, the command requires an additional 20 ms to access the media.
Host Interface 4.2.6.6 Power mode transition The power mode transition is shown in Figure 4.3. Media insertion Idle The ODD enters idle mode because it receives no command within a specified time. The ODD enters standby mode based on the standby timer. The ODD enters active mode because it receives a media access command.
4.2.7 LED indications The ODD notifies the operator of a serious error by turning on or blinking an LED. Table 4.2 lists the LED indications and the corresponding operations.
