I've seen a few programs that are actually able to detect
a hard-disk's brand/model.
Eg,  Conners AP540, Maxtor MT1200 etc....  

Is that possible using some interrupts? Can someone give
me some source for doing that?

Thanks.

Allen

PS: pls kindly send a copy of the source to my email account too.
    I've lots of trouble getting into newsgroups 'cos of slow 
    connection.
