Table 114 Read Multiple Ext Command (29h)
The Read Multiple Ext command reads one or more sectors of data from disk media, and then transfers the data
from the device to the host.
The sectors are transferred through the Data Register 16 bits at a time. Command execution is identical to the
Read Sector(s) command except that an interrupt is generated for each block (as defined by the Set Multiple
command) instead of for each sector.
