Ack. > We should get an async event as soon as the media disappears. Well - the without a request the drive has no transaction handle to contact the host. And we don't always have a physcial SCSI bus - e.g. USB devices can't contact the host without the host issuing a transfer. If you want media change events earlier we have to explizitly ask the devices. -- B.Walter BWCT http://www.bwct.de bernd_at_bwct.de info_at_bwct.deReceived on Mon Mar 28 2005 - 11:40:45 UTC
