Field Description
Identifier
Length
Specifies the length in bytes of the Identifier field. If the value of the Allocation
Length field in the CDB is too small to transfer all of the identifier, the length is
not adjusted to reflect the truncation. The identifier length is initially set to 0.
Only a successful SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER command changes the value of the
identifier.
Identifier The value reported is the last value written by a successful SET DEVICE
IDENTIFIER command. Only a successful SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER
command changes the value of the identifier. The identifier value persists through
resets, power cycles, media WRITE operations, and media replacement.
