This bit is only used with the MODE SENSE command. This bit is reserved with the MODE SELECT command. A PS bit value of 1 indicates that the disk drive is capable of saving the page in a non-volatile vendor specific location. The number of physical tracks per cylinder. The number of spare locations within a notch. The drive does not have any alternate tracks. The number of tracks reserved for defect handling. The number of Physical Block Address sectors per track. The value depends on the Notch value selected in the Notch and Partitions page. This value is the current disk sector size. The number of physical sectors between the last logical sector on one track and the first logical sector on the next track within a cylinder. The number of physical sectors between the last logical sector on one cylinder and the first logical sector on the next cylinder. The drive does not use soft sector formatting. The drive supports hard sector formatting only. The drive does not support removable logical media. A Surface bit value of 0 indicates that the drive allocates progressive addresses to all logical blocks within a cylinder prior to allocating addresses on the next cylinder. 5-68 Maxtor Atlas 10K V 5. 14. 3 Rigid Disk Geometry Page (04h) The Rigid Disk Geometry Page describes the drive geometry.

This bit is only used with the MODE SENSE command. [. . . ] TRACK ­ One of the many concentric magnetic circle patterns written on a disk surface as a guide for storing and reading data. TRACK DENSITY ­ How closely the tracks are packed on a disk surface. The number is specified as tracks per inch (TPI). TRACK-TO-TRACK SEEK TIME ­ The time required for the read/write heads to move to an adjacent track. [. . . ]
