9.0 Deviations from standard
The drive conforms to the referenced specifications, with the exception of the deviations described below.
The interface conforms to the Working Document of Information Technology, AT Attachment with Packet Interface
Extension (ATA/ATAPI-6) Revision 3b, dated 26 February 2002, with the following deviation:
Write Verify
S.M.A.R.T. Return Status
WRITE VERIFY command does not include read verification after write
operation. The function is the same as WRITE SECTORS command.
S.M.A.R.T. RETURN STATUS subcommand does not check advisory
attributes. This means that the device will not report a threshold exceeded
condition unless the prefailure attributes exceed their corresponding
thresholds. For example, a Power-On Hours Attribute never results in a
negative reliability status.
