Согласно всезнающему Google, это флаги команд чтения данных SCSI:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI_Read_Commands

"Disable Page Out (DPO) allows the initiator to warn the target that the
data being read is unlikely to be requested again soon and so is not
worth keeping in the target's data cache.
Force Unit Access (FUA) tells the target to fetch the data from the
media surface and to not use a cached copy."

Т.е., рекомендация устройству не сохранять считанное в своём кэше (DPO),
и требование прочитать данные с устройства, даже если они есть в кэше
(FUA).
