Deskstar 7K160 Hard Disk Drive Specification

There are two ways to access the log pages: using SMART READ/WRITE LOG and READ/WRITE LOG EXT.
Both sets of commands access the same log pages and provide the same capabilities.
The log directory for log pages E0h and E1h should report a length of one. The length of log page E1h does not
indicate the length of an SCT data transfer.
If SMART is supported, but not enabled, the drive supports SMART READ/WRITE LOG for Log page E0h and
E1h.
If security is enabled and password has not been issued to unlock the device, all SCT commands will fail.
10.22.0.1 Capability definition
Capability Identification is performed by issuing Identify Device command. Word 206 of Identify Data is used to
determine if SCT is enabled and which SCT Action Codes are supported.
10.22.0.2 SCT Command Nesting and intermingling with Standard commands
In general, standard ATA commands can be intermingled with SCT Commands but SCT commands cannot be
nested. SCT commands that do not require a follow-on data transfer operation never have an issue with being
intermixed with any ATA commands or each other. SCT commands that do require data transfer, on the other hand,
may not be nested; that is, if a key command that requires a data transfer is issued, all data transfer - to or from the
host - must complete before another SCT command is issued. In most cases, however, ATA read/write commands
may be inserted in between SCT data transfers, that is, between complete SMART Read Log/Write Log commands.
Furthermore, any reset (power-on, software or hardware) will cause the SCT command to be aborted.
10.22.0.3 Resets
In an SCT command is executing, any reset including Soft Reset, Hard Reset, COMRESET, and Power-On Reset
all cause the command to be terminated. This could result in partial command execution or data loss. There is no
indication once the drive becomes ready that the previous command was terminated.
10.22.1 SCT Command Protocol
Command Tansport
SCT Command Transport occurs when a 512-byte data packet (called "Key Sector") is created and the written to
SMART or extended log page E0h. The key sector specifies Action and Function Codes along with the parameters
that are required to perform the action.
