The WRITE BUFFER command writes the data from the host computer into the data
buffer memory in the controller. This command is also used for downloading of the
controller microcode.
This command can be used in conjunction with the READ BUFFER command (see
6.13) as a diagnostic function for testing the controller's data buffer memory and the
SCSI bus. This command does not cause the controller to access the medium on
logical unit except for the case of
“
Device Unique mode
”
or
“
Download Microcode and
Save
”
.
The function of this command is determined by the Mode field as follows.
