When the BSY bit is 1 or the DRQ bit is 1 (the device is requesting the data
transfer) and the host system writes to the command register, the correct device
operation is not guaranteed.

5.3.1 Command code and parameters

Table 5.3 lists the supported commands, command code and the registers that
needed parameters are written.
