Hi,

I would like to send SCSI read command in user mode.

Is it possible in WINDOWS?

thanks in advance,

Sure... simply get a handle via CreateFile, then use ReadFile\WriteFile all
day long. I guarantee they will send SCSI READ and WRITE. Now if you want to
do a READ CAPACITY or MODE SENSE/SELECT you will have to either settle, and
determine what you need, to find the SCSI and STORAGE IOCTL commands that
are availble. Beyond that you will have to use SCSI pass through, and create
your own CDB to pass to DeviceIoControl.

Nope, you have to be an admin to acquire the handle to the physical drive,
or use the SetupApi DLL and to use CreateFile. You can do it from a service,
which the user app then connects to via a pipe.
