Set Features command
This command controls the implementation of various features that the drive supports. When the drive receives this command, it sets BSY, checks
the contents of the Features register, clears BSY and generates an interrupt. If the value in the register does not represent a feature that the drive
supports, the command is aborted. Power-on default has the read look-ahead and write caching features enabled.
The acceptable values for the Features register are defined as follows::
B

Word 93

1 = 80-conductor cable detected, CBLID above VIH
0 = 40-conductor cable detected, CBLID below VIL
