Figure 95. Page 0C (Notch Parameters)
The notch page contains parameters for variable number of blocks per cylinder. Each section of the logical
unit with a different number of blocks per cylinder is referred as a notch. The only field that is changeable
is Active Notch field.
!
ND of one means that the drive is a notched drive.
!
LPN of zero means that the notches are based upon physical parameters of the drive (cylinder #), not
logical parameters.
!
Maximum Number of Notches is the number of notches the drive can support.
!
Active Notch indicates to which notch subsequent MODE SELECT/SENSE command parameters
pertain. A value of 0 is used for parameter values which apply to all notches. Values from 1 to the
maximum value depending on the model specify the notch number, where notch 1 is the outermost
notch. The following mode parameters are based on the current active notch:
