The spindle-synchronization characteristics can be controlled by the
Mode Select command using the RPL bits in byte 17 of the Rigid Disc
Geometry page.
In the default mode, all drives arbitrate during startup to see which drive
will be the synchronized master. When the drives are calibrating their
heads, they each check for a reference signal pulse. The drive that
becomes ready first checks for the reference signal, and when it does
not detect a pulse, it takes over as the master and begins sending
reference pulses. All other drives synchronize their spindles to the
reference signal as they in turn become ready.
