Probably should be fine then although from my experience of asking
about this stuff on their newsgroup I'm not sure even /they/ know what
they are doing. Either way it's best to doubt everything in my
experience with this stuff.

I note the following from the documentation:

"Only Plug and Play drivers can issue IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY
requests. Legacy drivers should use IOCTL_SCSI_GET_INQUIRY_DATA and
IOCTL_SCSI_GET_CAPABILITIES to get inquiry and capabilities data."

I'm not entirely sure what this means but I'm investigating it on the
various devices I have on my system. One or more of them might be plug
and play and might produce a better result.
