Features 66H and CCH can be used to enable and disable whether the Power On Reset (POR) Defaults will be set when a soft reset occurs. The default setting is to revert to the POR defaults when a soft reset occurs.

The Sector Count Register is loaded with the number of sectors per block. The current version of the card supports only a block size of 1 sector per block.
