.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
allows a user or system administrator to issue commands to and otherwise
|
|
control devices which reside on standard IDE and ATA controllers. It is
|
|
used by specifying
|
|
a device to manipulate, the command to perform, and any arguments
|
|
the command may require.
|
|
.Sh DEVICE COMMANDS
|
|
The following commands may be used on IDE and ATA devices. Note
|
|
that not all devices support all commands.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm identify

|
revision strings, and the device's capabilities.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm idle
|
|

|
power than Active mode.

|
.Pp

|
.Nm standby

.Pp
|
|

|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm sleep
|

less power than Standby mode, but requires a device reset to resume

|
used with caution.
