Reliability  
Wear-Leveling algorithm  
The controller supports static/dynamic wear leveling. When the host writes data, the controller will find and use the block  
with the lowest erase count among the free blocks. This is known as dynamic wear leveling. When the free blocks' erase  
count is higher than the data blocks', it will activate the static wear leveling, replacing the not so frequently used user  
blocks with the high erase count free blocks.  
ECC algorithm  
The controller use BCH8 ECC algorithm per 512 bytes. BCH8 can correct up to 8 random error bits within 512 data  
bytes.  
Bad-block management  
When the flash encounters ECC failed, program fail or erase fail, the controller will mark the block as bad block to  
prevent the used of this block and caused data lost later on.

READ MULTIPLE (C4h)  
This command performs similarly to the Read Sectors command. Interrupts are not generated on each sector, but on the  
transfer of a block which contains the number of sectors defined by a Set Multiple command.  
READ MULTIPLE EXT (29h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command performs similarly to the Read Sectors command. Interrupts are  
not generated on each sector, but on the transfer of a block which contains the number of sectors defined by a Set Multiple  
command.  
READ SECTOR(S) (20h/21h)  
This command reads 1 to 256 sectors as specified in the Sector Count register from sectors which is set by Sector number  
register. A sector count of 0 requests 256 sectors. The transfer beings specified in the Sector Number register.  
READ SECTOR(S) EXT (24h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command reads 1 to 65536 sectors as specified in the Sector Count register  
from sectors which is set by Sector number register. A sector count of zero requests 65536 sectors. The transfer beings  
specified in the Sector Number register.  
READ VERIFY SECTOR(S) (40h/41h)  
This command verifies one or more sectors on the drive by transferring data from the flash media to the data buffer in the  
drive and verifying that the ECC is correct. This command is identical to the Read Sectors command, except that DRQ is  
never set and no data is transferred to the host.  
READ VERIFY SECTOR(S) EXT (42h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command verifies one or more sectors on the drive by transferring data from  
the flash media to the data buffer in the drive and verifying that the ECC is correct. This command is identical to the Read

RECALIBRATE (10h)  
The current drive performs no processing if it receives this command. It is supported for backward compatibility with  
previous devices.  
SECURITY DISABLE PASSWORD (F6h)  
Disables any previously set user password and cancels the lock. The host transfers 512 bytes of data, as shown in the  
following table, to the drive. The transferred data contains a user or master password, which the drive compares with the  
saved password. If they match, the drive cancels the lock. The master password is still saved. It is re-enabled by issuing  
the SECURITY SET PASSWORD command to re-set a user password.  
SECURITY ERASE PREPARE (F3h)  
This command shall be issued immediately before the Security Erase Unit command to enable erasing and unlocking.  
This command prevents accidental loss of data on the drive.  
SECURITY ERASE UNIT (F4h)  
The host uses this command to transfer 512 bytes of data, as shown in the following table, to the drive. The transferred  
data contains a user or master password, which the drive compares with the saved password. If they match, the drive  
deletes user data, disables the user password, and cancels the lock. The master password is still saved. It is re-enabled  
by issuing the SECURITY SET PASSWORD command to re-set a user password.  
SECURITY FREEZE LOCK (F5h)  
Causes the drive to enter Frozen mode. Once this command has been executed, the following commands to update a lock  
result in the Aborted Command error:  
• SECURITY SET PASSWORD  
• SECURITY UNLOCK  
• SECURITY DISABLE PASSWORD  
• SECURITY ERASE PREPARE  
• SECURITY ERASE UNIT  
The drive exits from Frozen mode upon a power-off or hard reset. If the SECURITY FREEZE LOCK command is issued  
when the drive is placed in Frozen mode, the drive executes the command, staying in Frozen mode.

SMART ENABL OPERATIONS  
Enables the SMART function. This setting is maintained when the power is turned off and then back on. Once the SMART  
function is enabled, subsequent SMART ENABLE OPERATIONS commands do not affect any parameters.  
SMART DISABLE OPERATIONS  
Disables the SMART function. Upon receiving the command, the drive disables all SMART operations. This setting is  
maintained when the power is turned off and then back on.  
Once this command has been received, all SMART commands other than SMART ENABLE OPERATIONS are aborted  
with the Aborted Command error.  
This command disables all SMART capabilities including any and all timer and event count functions related exclusively to  
this feature. After command acceptance, this controller will disable all SMART operations. SMART data in no longer be  
monitored or saved. The state of SMART is preserved across power cycles.  
SMART RETURN STATUS  
Reports the drive reliability status.  
Values reported when a predicted defect has not been detected:  
Cylinder Low register: 4Fh  
Cylinder High register: C2h  
Values reported when a predicted defect has been detected:  
Cylinder Low register: F4h

SMART ENABLE/DISABLE AUTOMATIC OFF-LINE  
Enables (when Sector Count register = “F8h”) or disables (Sector Count register = “00h”) the automatic off-line data  
collection function. The automatic collection is disabled if a value of “00h” is set in the Sector Count register before a  
subcommand is issued. If automatic collection is disabled, the drive can still save attribute information during normal  
operation, such as during the power-on/off sequence or error correction sequence. The automatic collection function is  
enabled if a value of “F8h” is set in the Sector Count register before the command is issued. Values other than “00h” and  
“F8h” are vendor-specific.

clear BSY and return the interrupt immediately.  
STANDBY IMMEDIATE (E0h)  
This command causes the drive to set BSY, enter the Sleep mode (which corresponds to the ATA “Standby” Mode), clear  
BSY and return the interrupt immediately.  
WRITE BUFFER (E8h)  
This command enables the host to write the contents of one 512-byte block of data to the device’s buffer.  
WRITE DMA (CAh)  
Write data to sectors during Ultra DMA and Multiword DMA transfer. Use the SET FEATURES command to specify the  
mode value.  
WRITE DMA EXT (35h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. Write data to sectors during Ultra DMA and Multiword DMA transfer. Use the SET  
FEATURES command to specify the mode value.  
WRITE DMA FUA EXT (3Dh)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command provides the same function as the WRITE DMA EXT command  
except that regardless of whether volatile and/or non-volatile write caching in the device is enabled or not, the user data  
shall be written to non-volatile media before command completion is reported.  
WRITE FPDMA QUEUED (61h)  
NCQ feature set mandatory 48-bit command. This command causes data to be transferred from the host to the device.  
WRITE MULTIPLE (C5h)  
This command is similar to the Write Sectors command. Interrupts are not presented on each sector, but on the transfer of  
a block which contains the number of sectors defined by Set Multiple command.

WRITE MULTIPLE EXT (39h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command is similar to the Write Sectors command. Interrupts are not  
presented on each sector, but on the transfer of a block which contains the number of sectors defined by Set Multiple  
command.  
WRITE MULTIPLE FUA EXT (CEh)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. This command provides the same functionality as the WRITE MULTIPLE EXT  
command except that regardless of whether volatile and/or non-volatile write caching in the device is enabled or not, the  
user data shall be written to non-volatile media before command completion is reported.  
WRITE SECTOR(S) (30h/31h)  
Write data to a specified number of sectors (1 to 256, as specified with the Sector Count register) from the specified  
address. Specify “00h” to write 256 sectors.  
WRITE SECTOR(S) EXT (34h)  
48-bit feature set mandatory command. Write data to a specified number of sectors (1 to 65536, as specified with the  
Sector Count register) from the specified address. Specify “00h” to write 65536 sectors.
