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→
↓byte
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

Famous quotes containing the words write and/or long:

    I always write a good first line, but I have trouble in writing the others.
    Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

    A woman drew her long black hair out tight
    And fiddled whisper music on those strings
    And bats with baby faces in the violet light
    Whistled, and beat their wings
    And crawled head downward down a blackened wall....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
