This command specifies the the maximum address in a range of actual drive capacity. The values set in CY,
HD, SN registers indicate the maximum address that can be accessed. In CHS mode, the value of Read Native
Max Address command should be set in HD, SN register. Otherwise, the value shall be ignored and the value of
Read Max Address command will be used. If an LBA bit (DRV / HD register bit 6) is set, the value in LBA mode
shall be set. If the address exceeding the set value is accessed , “ ABORT ERROR “ error will be reported. This
set value affects the values of WORD 1, 54, 57, 58, 60, 61, 100-103 of IDENTIFY DEVICE command.
