Table 178 Write Stream PIO Command (3Bh)
This command writes from 1 to 65536 sectors as specified in the Sector Count register. A sector count of 0
requests 65536 sectors.
If the Write Continuous bit is set to one, the device shall not stop execution of the command due to errors. If
the WC bit is set to one and errors occur in the transfer or writing of the data, the device shall continue to transfer
the amount of data requested and then provide ending status with the BSY bit cleared to zero, the SE bit set to
one, the ERR bit cleared to zero, and the type of error, IDNF, or ABRT, reported in the error log. If the WC bit is
set to one and the Command Completion Time Limit expires, the device shall stop execution of the command
and provide ending status with BSY bit cleared to zero, the SE bit set to one, the ERR bit cleared to zero, and
report the fact that the Command Completion Time Limit expired by setting the CCTO bit in the error log to one,
In all cases, the device shall attempt to transfer the amount of data requested within the Command Completion
Time Limit event if some data transferred is in error.
