Table 175 Write Sector(s) Command (30h/31h)
The Write Sector(s) command transfers one or more sectors from the host to the device,and then the data is
written to the disk media.
The sectors are transferred through the Data Register 16 bits at a time.
If an uncorrectable error occurs, the write will be terminated at the failing sector.
