SED models will support the RevertSP feature which erases all data in all bands on the device and returns the contents of all SPs (Security
Providers) on the device to their original factory state. In order to execute the RevertSP method the unique PSID (Physical Secure ID)
printed on the drive label must be provided. PSID is not electronically accessible and can only be manually read from the drive label or
scanned in via the 2D barcode.

The ATA SECURITY ERASE UNIT command shall support both the Normal and Enhanced erase modes with the following modifications/
additions:
• Normal Erase: Normal erase shall be accomplished by changing the media encryption key for the drive followed by an overwrite opera-
tion that repeatedly writes a single sector containing random data to the entire drive. The write operation shall bypass the media encryp-
tion. On reading back the overwritten sectors, the host will receive a decrypted version, using the new encryption key, of the random
data sector (the returned data will not match what was written).
• Enhanced Erase: Enhanced erase shall be accomplished by changing the media encryption key for the drive.
