If error recovery is completed by rewriting the data to the data block, alternate
block allocation is not performed for this data block. The data block is removed
as the target of AWRE processing.

Sectors to be made AWRE shall be following:
•
the sector where the error occurs and the latter sectors and,
•
the sectors whose data are logically continual and stored in Cache,
•
the sectors which will be processed in this Write command and,
•
the sectors which locate between erroneous Servo -1 and +1 (including Split

6.3.3 Error recovery processing control
The INIT can, by specifying the MODE SELECT parameters, can control the
error recovery processing (retries) of the HDD with respect to each type of error
related to the disk drive.
error recovery processing (retries) of the HDD with respect to each type of error
related to the disk drive.
Table 6.7 shows the types of error and the method of specifying the number of
retries for those errors. for those items where the INIT can specify the number of
retries, normally, it is recommended that the default value or a greater number of
times be specified. If a value smaller than the default value is specified, and
commands are terminated abnormally without error recovery processing
succeeding, the INIT should reset the corresponding MODE SELECT parameters
at the default value, then reexecute the original commands.

The MODE SELECT parameters related to disk drive error recovery processing
which the INIT can specify are shown below. See the description of the MODE

parameter. The INIT can issue the MODE SELECT or MODE SELECT
