The drive internally uses 40 bytes of ECC on all data read or writes. The 4-byte mode of operation is
provided via an emulation technique. As a consequence of this emulation it is recommended that 40 byte
ECC mode is used for all tests to confirm the operation of the
ECC hardware of the drive. Unexpected
results may occur if such testing is performed using 4-byte mode.
