FUAbit == "True", if 0xD8(FUA) is supported by the drive, so, sptd.Cdb[1] = 1 << 3 = 1*2*2*2 = 8.
Tested PX-W5224A
Code: Select all
CacheExplorer 0.8 - spath@cdfreaks.com
Drive on H is PLEXTOR CD-R PX-W5224A 1.04
[+] Buffer size: 2048 kB, read cache is enabled
[+] Supported read commands: BEh A8h(FUA) 28h(FUA) D8h
According to src, if it support fua, show "D8h(FUA)".
If a plextor drive that supported fua exists, I'll code it.

Some people there have "[+] Supported read commands: BEh A8h(FUA) 28h(FUA) D4h(FUA) D5h(FUA) D8h(FUA)" even with PX-760A 1.06 (maybe no more FUA for 0xD8 in 1.07 firmware?)

Code: Select all
void InitSPTDStructureForREAD(unsigned char CDBLength, unsigned int NbSectors)
{
// fill in sptd structure
sptd.Length = sizeof(sptd);
sptd.PathId = 0; // SCSI card ID will be filled in automatically
sptd.TargetId = 0; // SCSI target ID will also be filled in
sptd.Lun = 0; // SCSI lun ID will also be filled in
sptd.CdbLength = CDBLength; // CDB size
sptd.SenseInfoLength = 0; // Don't return any sense data
sptd.DataIn = SCSI_IOCTL_DATA_IN; // There will be data from drive
sptd.DataTransferLength = 2448 * NbSectors; // Size of data
sptd.TimeOutValue = 60; // SCSI timeout value
sptd.DataBuffer = (PVOID)(DataBuf);
sptd.SenseInfoOffset = 0;
}
I understood that CacheExplorer doesn't use senseinfo.
http://forum.duplexsecure.com/showpost. … ostcount=2
To make it short: this tool uses SPTI interface in "unreliable" manner: it sends
IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT requests without specifying sense info buffer and uses REQUEST SENSE command in case of error. It is not a good way to work with SPTI - it may be ok only if you know device returns no error.
For proper operation on all Windows platforms IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT must specify non-zero SenseInfoOffset and SenseInfoLength in SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT structure.
I think so.
If CacheExplorer uses a sense info and specifies ReadD4, ReadD5 ReadD8(FUA), it will probably return a sense info below.
Code: Select all
ScsiStatus: 02-CHECK_CONDITION
SenseData Key:Asc:Ascq 05:24:00, ILLEGAL_REQUEST - INVALID FIELD IN CDB

Every real Plextor drive I own supports D8h (FUA).

I don’t know whether it supports D8h(FUA) from this post.
Please use -i command and show "[+] Supported read commands:"

Probably you need XP/2003 to get D8h(FUA).

Final test would be running DIC from an elevated command prompt line in these OS with UAC. I don't think that SPTI has changed so much in order to disable the D8h(FUA) command.

Does your PX-755 supports D4h(FUA) D5h(FUA) too?

It is repeated, CacheExplorer uses SPTI interface in "unreliable" manner.(= it has a defect.)
This tool doesn't get sense data, so an error doesn't show even if it failed to read.
In other words it is displayed when supported in spite of what doesn’t support it.
Probably you need XP/2003 to get D8h(FUA).
If so, I can code it but I can't test. Because I don't have already WinXP
