5.4 Command Protocol
C141-E104-02EN 5-87
Note that the host does not need to read the Status register for the
reading of a single sector or the last sector in multiple-sector
reading. If the timing to read the Status register does not meet
above condition, normal data transfer operation is not guaranteed.
When the host new command even if the device requests the data
transfer (setting in DRQ bit), the correct device operation is not
guaranteed.
