Datasheet
The head number of the last transferred sector. (L=0)
LBA mode, this register contains current LBA bits 24 - 27. (L=1)
H
The cylinder number of the last transferred sector. (L=0)
In LBA mode, this register contains current LBA bits 8-15 (Low), 16-23 (High).
(L=1)
Cylinder High/Low
The sector number of the last transferred sector. (L=0)
In LBA mode, this register contains current LBA bits 0 - 7. (L=1)
Sector Number
The number of requested sectors not transferred. This will be zero, unless an
unrecoverable error occurs.

Figure 90. Read Sectors Command (20h/21h)
The Read Sectors command reads one or more sectors of data from disk media, then transfers the data
from the device to the host.
The sectors are transferred through the Data Register 16 bits at a time.
If an uncorrectable error occurs, the read will be terminated at the failing sector.
