    Barracuda 4XL Product Manual, Rev. B “miss”, all data transfers to the host are in accordance with “buffer-full” ratio rules. On a cache “hit” the drive ignores the “buffer-full” ratio rules. See explanations associated with Mode page 02h (disconnect/reconnect control) in the SCSI Interface Product Manual (part number 77738479). The following is a simplified description of a read operation with cache operation enabled: Case A - A Read command is received and the first logical block (LB) is already in cache: 1.
