Hi,
I have to access CD sectors on a multi-session CD-R as
well as single session CD-RW under win2000.
SCSI passthrough is not a reliable method.
Solution is to write a scsi class driver.
So what do I need to get started. Please suggest links.
How much time will it take to write such a driver. Is it
possible to quickly fix such a driver to show some results.
Thanks.

There are a couple commecial SCSI class drivers available, from OSR and from
StorageCraft. I've seen the one from OSR, it is a significant piece of
work, especially since all the rules of interfacing with the OS for a class
driver are not well specified.

Assuming you are a solid DDK developer, I suspect you can get something
together in 18 months to two years, maybe longer if you need to support more
than one revision of the OS (i.e. 2000, XP, 2003).

Hi,
Thanks Maxim.
Would just stripping down the CDROM/CLASSPNP work.
Also how much time do you think a newbie like me (fast),
would take in that case.
regards.
