The Write (6) command is only 6 bytes long and is a legacy from early SCSI days. Its use is restricted to 21-bit LBAs. The CDB structure is:
bit→ ↓byte |
7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | Operation code = 0Ah | |||||||
1 | Reserved | LBA | ||||||
2 | LBA | |||||||
3 | LBA | |||||||
4 | Transfer length | |||||||
5 | Control |
