5.3 Host Commands

*2)

Advanced Power Management (APM)

The host writes the Sector Count field with the desired power management level
and executes this command with the Features field X '05', and then Advanced
Power Management is enabled.

The drive automatically shifts to power saving mode up to the specified APM level
when the drive does not receive any commands for a specific time. The sequence in
which the power management level shifts is from Active Idle to Low Power Idle to
Standby. The Mode-2 level requires the longest shifting time, depending on the APM
level settings. The settings of the APM level revert to their default values (Mode-1)
when power-on or COMRESET occurs for the drive
