Write Long (10)
The Write Long command allows for Error Correcting Code (ECC). The data sent from the initiator will include ECC fields as well as real data. The Byte Transfer Length field tells the target how much data will need to be returned when the data is subsequently retrieved with a Read Long command. The CDB structure is:
| bit→ ↓byte |
7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | Operation code = 3Fh | |||||||

Famous quotes containing the words write and/or long:
“I have discovered the most exciting, the most arduous literary form of all, the most difficult to master, the most pregnant in curious possibilities. I mean the advertisement.... It is far easier to write ten passably effective Sonnets, good enough to take in the not too inquiring critic, than one effective advertisement that will take in a few thousand of the uncritical buying public.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“He that outlives a wife whom he has long loved, sees himself disjoined from the only mind that has the same hopes, and fears, and interest; from the only companion with whom he has shared much good and evil; and with whom he could set his mind at liberty, to retrace the past or anticipate the future. The continuity of being is lacerated; the settled course of sentiment and action is stopped; and life stands suspended and motionless.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
