Issues resolved since version 1.29
Improved read disturb handling at the end of life of the NAND flash
Corrected the SMART attribute range floor to be set to 1 for all attributes
Reduced the time required to wake up from sleep & standby
Fixed an issue that required the first non-data command after reset to be IDENTIFY
Increased the number of bad blocks that can be handled, thus improving NAND flash end of life
behavior
Fixed ClearSMART behavior to match the description in the SRM
Added Enhanced Security Erase methods supporting military erase protocols
Fixed a rare condition that could cause the drive to reset and clear the data
Fixed a condition in which a drive could hang if repeatedly rebooted without sufficient time to
recover between cycles
Updated flash configuration settings for Intel/Micron 25nm flash support
Improved the SATA behavior with respect to the CONT signal in order to work around limitations
with some hosts
Reduced the drive boot time when it was shutdown using the STANDBY IMMEDIATE command
Improved FW efficiency for performance improvements of up to 5%
Fixed SMART Attribute 194 to correctly display negative numbers in the normalized data field
