Set Max ADDRESS (F9h) The Set Max ADDRESS command overwrites the max LBA/CYL of HDD in a range of actual device capacities. Once the device receives this command, all accesses beyond that LBA/CYL are rejected by setting the ABORT bit in the status register. Identify the device command and Identify the device DMA command returns the LBA/CYL which is set via this command as a default value. This command implement SET MAX security extension commands as subcommands. But regardless of Feature register value, the case this command is immediately preceded by a Read Native Max ADDRESS command, it is interpreted as a Set Max ADDRESS command. The Read Native Max ADDRESS command should be issued and completed immediately prior to issuing the Set Max ADDRESS command. If it is not, this command is interpreted as a Set Max security extension command which is designated by feature register. If Set Max security mode is in the Locked or Frozen, the Set Max ADDRESS command is aborted. For more information, see Section 11.9.2, "Set Max security extension commands" on page 95. In CHS mode, Cylinder High, Cylinder Low specify the maximum cylinder number. The Head number of DEVICE/HEAD and Sector Number are ignored. The default value (see default CHS in Identify device information) is used for that. In LBA mode, the Head number of DEVICE/HEAD , the Cylinder High, the Cylinder Low, and the Sector Number specify the max LBA. This command will set this LBA as the max LBA of the device.
