4.1.2 Identify Device command

The Identify Device command (command code EC

) transfers information about the drive to the host following

power up. The data is organized as a single 512-byte block of data, whose contents are shown in the Table 7

on page 30. All reserved bits or words should be set to zero. Parameters listed with an “x” are drive-specific or

vary with the state of the drive. See Section 2.0 on page 3 for default parameter settings.

The following commands contain drive-specific features that may not be included in the Draft ATA-7 Standard.
