Many of the SCSI commands cause data to be transferred between the initiator and
the drive. The content and characteristics of this data are command-dependent. Table
5-8 lists the information transmitted for all of the commands.

5-8 lists the information transmitted for all of the commands.
The “Length in CDB” column of Table 5-8 identifies the Command Descriptor
Block field used by the drive to determine how much command-related data are to
be transferred. The units (bytes or logical blocks) for the different Length fields are
implied by the Length Field Name as shown in Table 5-7:

The DATA OUT column in Table 5-8 lists the information passed to the drive by the
initiator as part of the command. The DATA IN column lists the information sent to
the initiator by the drive.
initiator as part of the command. The DATA IN column lists the information sent to
the initiator by the drive.
Numbers in parentheses after an item indicate the item’s length in bytes. In some cases,
additional length information is communicated during the DATA phase. For example,
a FORMAT UNIT Defect List Header contains a Defect List Length field that
contains the total length of the Defect Descriptors that follow the Defect List Header.
Table 5-8 does not include these cases.
