*1 The ODD control firmware is stored on the flash ROM and can be downloaded from the host with
the WRITE BUFFER command. However, if any problem occurs during downloading, such as
power failure, downloading is interrupted and the microcodes in the control firmware may be
damaged. To download microcode data again in such a case, the ODD starts the emergency
download firmware that simply supports only the WRITE BUFFER command and other basic
commands.
