The Translate Address Page allows the initiator to translate a logical sector address, 
physical address, or physical bytes for an index address into any one of the other 
formats. The address to be translated is passed to the drive with the SEND 
DIAGNOSTIC command, and the results are returned to the initiator by the 
RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command. 

Table 5-159 shows the format of the Translate Address Page that is returned in 
response to a RECEIVE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS command, and Table 5-160 
contains a description of the data fields. Multiple translated addresses are returned if 
the logical sector size is greater than 512 bytes (more than one physical data sector).

Table 5-159   

Note:

Bytes 6 through 13: One set of these bytes is required for each 
sector per Logical Block Address.
