Table 124 Security Disable Password Command (F6h)
The Security Disable Password command disables the security mode feature (device lock function).
The Security Disable Password command requests a transfer of a single sector of data from the host including
information specified in Table 123 on the page 181. Then the device checks the transferred password. If the
User Password or Master Password matches the given password, the device disables the security mode feature
(device lock function). This command does not change the Master Password which may be re-activated later by
setting User Password. This command should be executed in device unlock mode.
When security is disabled and the Identifier bit is set to User, then the device shall return command aborted.
