This command writes the desired head and
cylinder of the selected drive with a FFh pattern.
To remain host backward compatible, the SDP3B
FlashDisk expects a sector buffer of data from the
host to follow the command with the same
protocol as the Write Sector(s) command although
the information in the buffer is not used by the
SDP3B FlashDisk. If LBA=1 then the number of
sectors to format is taken from the Sec Cnt register
(0=256).

The Identify Drive command enables the host to
receive parameter information from the SDP3B
FlashDisk. This command has the same protocol
as the Read Sector(s) command. The parameter
words in the buffer have the arrangement and
meanings defined in Table 6-3. All reserved bits or
words are zero. Table 6-3 is the definition for each
field in the Identify Drive Information.
