SCSI Write Commands - Write Long (10)

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→

Famous quotes containing the words write and/or long:

    “No man’s thoughts are new, but the style of their expression is the never-failing novelty which cheers and refreshes men. If we were to answer the question, whether the mass of men, as we know them, talk as the standard authors and reviewers write, or rather as this man writes, we should say that he alone begins to write their language at all.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The long high tent of growing and making, wired-off
    Wood tables past which crowds shuffle, eyeing the scrubbed
    spaced
    Extrusions of earth....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
