- No Deallocate After Sanitize: - If set, then the controller shall not deallocate any logical - blocks as a result of successfully completing the sanitize - operation. If cleared, then the controller should deallocate - logical blocks as a result of successfully completing the - sanitize operation. This bit shall be ignored if the Sanitize - Action field is set to 001b (i.e., Exit Failure Mode). + No Deallocate After Sanitize: + If set, then the controller shall not deallocate any logical + blocks as a result of successfully completing the sanitize + operation.

- Overwrite Invert Pattern Between Passes: - If set, then the Overwrite Pattern shall be inverted between - passes. If cleared, then the overwrite pattern shall not be - inverted between passes.

- Overwrite Pass Count: - This field specifies the number of overwrite passes (i.e., - how many times the media is to be overwritten) using the data - from the Overwrite Pattern field of this command. A value of 0 - specifies 16 overwrite passes.
