Abstract

High level commands for a disk drive are processed by a task manager program that parses them into low level subcommands (e.g., SCSI commands). The low level subcommands are. then presented to the command execution means of the disk drive for execution. The parsing or sub tasking of a high level command into a number of low level commands permits the efficient handling of subcommands that must be deferred until other subcommands are executed and of third party XOR operations.
