+For SCSI devices this toggles the value of the GLTSD (Global Logging Target
+Saving Disabled) bit in the Control mode page. Some disk manufacturers
+by default set this bit which inhibits error counters, power up hours and
+other useful data being placed in non-volatile store. This means these values
+will probably be reset to zero the next time the device is power cycled.
+If the GLTSD bit is set then a warning is issued when \'smartctl \-a\' is
+run. Use \fIon\fP to clear this bit and hence enable saving counters
+to non-volatile store. For extreme streaming video type applications
+you might consider setting it to \fIoff\fP.
