Hey all,

Yet another request... (I appreciate all the help).
Is there a way that, through a batch file, I can determine the operating mode of a hard drive?
Device Manager will show me if I go to properties of the IDE Controller, but, how do I gather this info?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Batch or even VBS that outputs to file would work ok for the application that I need it for.

Thanks in Advance.

Its simple registry keys.

Further inspection points me to this key containing the info that I need: Unfortunatly there is no Table that I have found that will tell me what hex or decimal value = what mode... but I guess I might be able to grab that from trial/error

thanks all
