Table 5–33 Read-Write Error Recovery Page — Field Descriptions (continued)

Default

Field Value Description

Read Retry Count 4 Specifies the number of retries attempted for a failed read operation.

Correction Span 170 Specifies the maximum number of bits in a data sector that the

drive is allowed to correct. A value less than the default value can

cause an otherwise correctable error to be reported as

uncorrectable. If the initiator specifies a value larger than the default

value, the drive automatically rounds down the number to the

default value. A value of 0 causes the drive to use the default value.

The drive ignores any value placed in this field.

Head Offset Count 0 Not supported by the drive.

Data Strobe Offset 0 Not supported by the drive.

Count

Write Retry Count 8 Specifies the number of retries attempted for a failed write

operation.

Recovery Time Limit 0 Specifies the maximum time, in milliseconds, that a retry is

attempted on a failed sector during a read or write operation. When

the value is 0, it means that there is no time limit. The mimum

permissible value, however, is 100 milliseconds.

NOTE: Fully supported and temporary fields are underlined. Unsupported and ignored fields are

not underlined. The PS bit is underlined, meaning it will be set on a MODE SENSE

command, since the page is savable
