It am reading it to say (for the commands that support it) that bit 6 should be on. LBA28 Bits 24-26 are bits 0-3, using "Read Sectors" as an example.

While this is on the second page, hopefully most will read this. I have no intention of giving the software out. Some of the regulars maybe. I have learned from this project, that if you don't have the discipline to build this yourself you can only do more harm than good.

Anyone care to shed some light on WD smart log? I have started looking into it and I am trying to narrow down the meaning of the highlighted hex values.
I am thinking of attacking this programatically, writing the buffer out to file while DRQ after each request. I would then check for error and recalibrate the drive, re-enable writing to the log, then incrementing the value. If nothing else, I will end up with a lot of random junk that I can then begin to decipher. I am not looking for exact values or anything like that, I want to figure it out for myself. Just looking for any possible problems with my approach.

Nevermind.. I was able to search the output of several runs and found the information I was looking for.
