Error information
(32) SECURITY ERASE UNIT (F4h)
This command erases all user data. This command also invalidates the user
password and releases the lock function.
The host transfers the 512-byte data shown in Table 5.15 to the device. The
device compares the user password or master password in the transferred data
with the user password or master password already set. The device erases user
data, invalidates the user password, and releases the lock function if the
passwords are the same.
Although this command invalidates the user password, the master password is
retained. To recover the master password, issue the SECURITY SET
PASSWORD command and reset the user password.
