The “Address Format Before Conversion” field in byte 4 and the “Address Format After
Conversion” field in byte 5 are the same values as the codes which show the expression format for
address information specified by the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command parameters. The “Address
Format After Conversion” field shows the expression format of the address information reported in
bytes 6 to 13 of this response data. “Address format” codes are as shown below.
Code Address Format
0 0 0 Logical Block Address Format
1 0 0 Byte Distance from the Index Format
1 0 1 Physical Sector Address Format
The description of address information shown in bytes 6 to 13 is the same as the description
specifications in the D List transferred from the INIT by the FORMAT UNIT command. For
details, see the description of the FORMAT UNIT command (Section 3.3.1). Furthermore, When
the logical block format is used, the address is shown in bytes 6 to 9 and zero is reported in the
remaining byte positions. However, when the address information specified in the “SEND
DIAGNOSTIC command points to a position on the disk media which is not used as physical data
blocks, X ‘FFFFFFFF 00000000’ is reported as the logical block address after conversion.
