HARDWARE ERROR
. Indicates that the drive detected a non-recoverable hardware failure not related
to the tape (for example, controller failure , device failure, parity error, etc).While performing the
command or during a self-test . If a previously acknowledged write-type operation was the cause, the
valid bit is set. The error code in sense byte 16 will indicate the specific problem. Refer to the error code
table in the diagnostics clause for more information.
03 00
PERIPHERAL DEVICE WRITE FAULT - Drive electronics did not report successful completion to a
Write operation.
3F 01
MICROCODE HAS BEEN CHANGED – Illegal firmware code is reprogrammed.
44 00
INTERNAL TARGET FAILURE - Any unexpected internal error
CONDITIONS INDICATING A NON-RECOVERABLE HARDWARE FAILURE. REFER TO THE FIELD
REPLACEABLE UNIT CODE FIELD (SENSE BYTE 14) TO DETERMINE WHICH PART OF THE
DRIVE IS FAILING. HOST SHOULD ISSUE SEND DIAGNOSTICS WITH THE SELF-TEST BIT SET TO
THOROUGHLY TEST THE DRIVE. THIS SENSE INFORMATION COULD ALSO BE RETURNED
AFTER A SEND DIAGNOSTICS COMMAND ENDS WITH A CHECK CONDITIONSTATUS. HOST
SHOULD ISSUE RECEIVE DIAGNOSTICS RESULTS FOR MORE DETAILS. POSSIBLE CAUSES:
BUFFER OVERRUN/ UNDER-RUN, FORMAT VIOLATION, MECHANICAL STATUS TIME-OUT,
INTERNAL DATA PARITY ERROR, BYTE COUNT MISMATCH, INCORRECT MICROPROCESSOR
OPERATION, UNEXPECTED ATAPI PROTOCOL CHIP INTERRUPT.

ILLEGAL REQUEST
. Indicates that there was an illegal parameter in the Command
Descriptor Block or in the additional parameters supplied as data for some commands. If

Reserved. Refer to the Field Pointer (Bytes 15-17) to identify the illegal bit or field.
25 00
LOGICAL UNIT NOT SUPPORTED - The error indicates that the LUNTRN field
in the Identify message was not ZERO.
26 00
INVALID FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST - Test Number,
Configuration Number Header, or Field in the Parameter List was invalid or selected
Diagnostic test is not Host assessable.
26 01
PARAMETER NOT SUPPORTED - Unsupported page requested. Refer to the Field
Pointer (Bytes 15-17) to identify the illegal bit or field.
26 02
PARAMETER VALUE INVALID
2C 00
2C 00 COMMAND SEQUENCE ERROR - Write Buffer command when tape is inserted and not at BOT.
