a. Qualifier, Device Type Code, Version
These fields are the same as those in the previously mentioned standard INQUIRY data.
b. Support
This field indicates the value defined below.
"Support" Bit 2 1 0
If the "Support" field contains "000b", all data after byte 1 is not valid. One possible reason for
"support" being "000b" is the device server's inability to retrieve information stored on the media.
When this is the case, a subsequent request for command support data may be successful.
