Figure 125. Read Long Command (22h/23h)

The Read Long command reads the designated one sector of data and the ECC bytes from disk media
and then transfers the data and ECC bytes from the device to the host.
After 512 bytes of data have been transferred, the device will keep setting DRQ=1 to indicate that the
device is ready to transfer the ECC bytes to the host. The data is transferred 16 bits at a time; the ECC
bytes are transferred 8 bits at a time. The number of ECC bytes is 4 or 52 according to setting of Set
Feature option. The default setting is 4 bytes of ECC data.
The command makes a single attempt to read the data and does not check the data using ECC. What-
ever is read is returned to the host.
