Formatted capacity    

*One Gbyte equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment 

and formatting.

2.2.1

LBA mode

When addressing these drives in LBA mode, all blocks (sectors) are consecutively numbered from 0 to n–1, 
where n is the number of guaranteed sectors as defined above.

See Section 4.3.1, "Identify Device command" (words 60-61 and 100-103) for additional information about 48-
bit addressing support of drives with capacities over 137 Gbytes.

2.3

Default logical geometry   

LBA mode

 

When addressing these drives in LBA mode, all blocks (sectors) are consecutively numbered from 0 to n–1, 
where n is the number of guaranteed sectors as defined above.
