Detailed information about ASPI devices (HDD, CD, scanner,tape
drive) and ASPI device features.
Host N, Target N, LUN
N
Information
about ASPI device on Host N, Target N and LUN N.
Device Name: Vendor and
name of the ASPI device.
Size: Real size of ASPI
device.
Device Type: ASPI device
type (HDD, CD drive, scanner, tape drive).
Physical Interface:
Physical interface of ASPI device (SCSI, ATAPI, IEEE, Fibre
Channel, Serial ATAPI, USB).
Geometry: Heads, Sectors,
Tracks: Logical number of heads, sectors per track and
tracks. It has nothing to do with physical HDD parameters.
Compatibility:
Compatibility of the device with the certain SCSI standard.
Vendor Specific: Any text
information provide by the vendor.
Read Retry Count: Number of
read retries if the first attempt fails.
Write Retry Count: Number
of write retries if the first attempt fails.
Serial Number: Unique
serial number.
Controller Revision:
Firmware revision number.
Disk Marketing Size: The
marketing size much more than real size. In one 'computer' megabyte
of 1048576 bytes, but in one 'marketing' (used by HDD
manufacturers) of 1000000 bytes.
Buffer Size: Buffer size of
the ASPI device (you shouldn't mix it up with disk cache). Part of
the buffer can be used for system purposes, and its real size can
be smaller.
Rotation Rate: Specifies
the speed where the medium rotates in RPM.
Device Temperature: Current
temperature of ASPI device.
Logical Drives: List of
logical drives mapped to physical drive.
Location: Host, Target,
LUN: Device logical address (host number, device number,
logical unit number).
Manager ID: SCSI manager
identifier.
Adapter ID: SCSI controller
identifier.
Manufacture Date: ASPI
device manufacture date.
Start/Stop Count: Number of
start/stop cycles.
Ext. Self-Test Time: Time
in seconds that the device requires to complete an extended
self-test.
Bus Width: Device bus
width.
Address Width: Device
address width.
Location: Vendor and name
of controller.
