11.42.3  Device Attribute Thresholds Data Structure 
The following defines the 512 bytes that make up the Attribute Threshold information. This data structure is 
accessed by the host in its entirety using the SMART Read Attribute Thresholds. All multi-byte fields shown in 
these data structures follow the ATA/ATAPI-7 specification for byte ordering, namely that the least significant 
byte occupies the lowest numbered byte address location in the field. 
The  sequence of active Attribute Thresholds  will appear  in the same  order  as their  corresponding Attribute 
Values. 
Data Structure Revision Number

11.42.3.1    Data Structure Revision Number 
This value is the same as the value used in the Device Attributes Values Data Structure. 
11.42.3.2    Individual Thresholds Data Structure 
The following defines the 12 bytes that make up the information for each Threshold entry in the Device Attribute 
Thresholds Data Structure. Attribute entries in the Individual Threshold Data Structure are in the same order and 
correspond to the entries in the Individual Attribute Data Structure.

These values are preset at the factory and are not meant to be changeable. 
11.42.3.5    Data Structure Checksum 
The Data Structure Checksum is the 2‘s compliment of the result of a simple 8-bit addition of the first 511 bytes 
in the data structure.
