A device in Active idle mode may take longer to complete the execution of a command because it must activate that circuitry. The head is unloaded onto the ramp position. The spindle motor is rotating at full speed. Standby The device interface is capable of accepting commands. The spindle motor is stopped. All circuitry but the host interface is in power saving mode. The execution of commands is delayed until the spindle becomes ready. Sleep The device requires a soft reset or a hard reset to be activated. All electronics, including spindle motor and host interface, are shut off. 4.4.2.2 Mode transition time From To Standby Idle Table 10.

Performance
The device is capable of responding immediately to idle media access
requests. All electronic components remain powered and the full frequency
servo remains operational.
Active idle
The device is capable of responding immediately to media access requests.
Some circuitry—including servo system and R/W electronics—is in power
saving mode. The head is parked near the mid-diameter the disk without
servoing.
A device in Active idle mode may take longer to complete the execution of a
command because it must activate that circuitry.
Low power idle
The head is unloaded onto the ramp position. The spindle motor is rotating at
full speed.
Standby
The device interface is capable of accepting commands. The spindle motor is
stopped. All circuitry but the host interface is in power saving mode.
The execution of commands is delayed until the spindle becomes ready.
Sleep
The device requires a soft reset or a hard reset to be activated. All electronics,
including spindle motor and host interface, are shut off.

4.4.2.3
Operating mode at power on
The device goes into Idle mode after power on or hard reset as an initial state. Initial state may be changed to
Standby mode using pin C on the interface connector. Refer to section 7.10 on page 53, "Drive address setting" for
details.
4.4.2.4
Adaptive power save control
The transient timing from Performance Idle mode to Active Idle mode and Active Idle mode to Low Power Idle
mode is controlled adaptively according to the access pattern of the host system.
The transient timing from Low
Power Idle mode to Standby mode is also controlled adaptively, if it is allowed by Set Features Enable Advanced
Power Management subcommand.
