6.5 Write Cache
If Write Cache is enabled, there is a possibility that data transferred
from the host with the Write Cache enable command is not
completely written on disk media before the normal end interrupt is
issued.
If an unrecoverable error occurs while multiple commands that are
targets of write caching are received, the host has difficulty
determining which command caused the error. (An error report is
not issued to the host if automatic alternating processing for the
error is performed normally.) Therefore, the host cannot execute a
retry for the unrecoverable error while Write Cache is enabled. Be
very careful on this point when using this function.
If a write error occurs, an abort response is sent to all subsequent
commands.
