The Power Condition Page controls disk drive Power Management functions. Power
Management provides three sub-states of UNIT READY:

• ACTIVE: This is the state of highest power consumption for the disk

drive. A media access command is acted upon immediately by the drive.

• IDLE: This is a state of lower power consumption for the disk drive. A

media access command is acted upon after a delay of approximately one
second.

• STANDBY: This is the state of lowest power consumption for the disk

drive. A media access command is delayed by approximately 10 seconds
before being acted upon.

Note that in all three sub-states, the drive remains READY.
Table 5-78 shows the data format of the page. Table 5-79 contains a description of the
Power Condition Page fields.
