HI, I have a question. The HDIO_DRIVE_TASK can not return data on the PIO or DMA protocol ? Only the HDIO_DRIVE_CMD and HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE can do that ? Because HDIO_DRIVE_TASK with the WIN_IDENTIFY command for example returns 0, so ioctl was executed successful, but no data can be found in the additional 512 bytes. Thanks Kantor ____________________________________________________________________________________ Luggage? GPS? Comic books? Check out fitting gifts for grads at Yahoo!
