jchd Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Jon, FYI, DriveGetType correctly detects a set of 8 15Krpm SAS drives organized as 2 RAID arrays (Raid6 and Raid1) hooked to a top-notch Areca RAID controller (not a very common setup which I thought was worth testing). In fact I was merely testing Areca driver compliance with Win7 C: Fixed non SSD RAID D: Fixed non SSD RAID E: CDROM non SSD ATAPI F: Removable non SSD USB G: Removable non SSD USB This wonderful site allows debugging and testing regular expressions (many flavors available).

trancexx Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I get SSD string returned for every of the drives on XP SP2 installed few hours ago from the DELL's reinstallation CD on a computer bought in Montenegro the other day and currently used on a boat in some third country . I won't have access to that comp after today so if you want me to test something Jon make it today. There are two drives one SSD and other which is not. SSD which I had in my purse is mine and I connected it using red cable after kind gentlemans that make me company for the past few weeks unscrewed side panel of this rather ordinarily looking PC chassis. ♡♡♡ . eMyvnE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireFox Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) It works fine for me on both Win7 64 bits computers (detects SSDs and non SSDs). Edited August 5, 2013 by FireFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Posted August 5, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2013 I get SSD string returned for every of the drives on XP SP2 installed few hours ago from the DELL's reinstallation CD on a computer bought in Montenegro the other day and currently used on a boat in some third country .

SSD which I had in my purse is mine and I connected it using red cable after kind gentlemans that make me company for the past few weeks unscrewed side panel of this rather ordinarily looking PC chassis. Weird. I can foresee some situation where SSD isn't returned on some older SSDs (it's not a totally exact science on older drives). But for it to definately return SSD is unexplained. Could you try a couple of tests please: 1. Try using a physical disk number rather than a volume name (DriveGetType(0, 2) DriveGetType(1, 2) etc) 2. The "backup" check for SSD only works as administrator, so if you logon using a non admin account then that check will not fire, so see what output that gives. Cheers.

Administrators Jon Posted August 5, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2013 Ignore that, the first check only works on Win7+, it's probably crapping out on XP. I'll change it so that it only runs the 2nd check on XP.

Cheers.Using physical disk number I get two "SSD" strings. If that number represents what I think it is then that's consistent with the earlier results. There is only one account and that's mine (admin). If I use drive letters like originally I did then "SSD" is returned even for H: (with or without backslash) too which is DVD RW drive. C: is SSD and XP is on F: which is on non-SSD. edit: And help file examples look kind of weird, they miss "open this script" and instead have some undefined thing at that place. I took screenshot and when and if I figure out how to upload it from there I will post it. Damn thing won't connect to my phone.

trancexx Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Just to say that I was extremely intrigued by advertised ability to chech for SSD drives because I'm not familiar with any completely reliable way on how to do it. ♡♡♡ . eMyvnE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wraithdu Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 You mean the setup where there's a normal notebook HDD, then a small (32 gig-ish) SSD in some kind of RAID configuration that's used as a cache drive through Intel's RST? Then yes, I have access to some HP 9470m's with that setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich071 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 It correctly profiled a Seagate Hybrid drive along with a 3TB GPT data drive under Win7 x64. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Robertson Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Same as floppies: disk and head(s). No moving parts, are you sure? Floppies aren't optical disks. They are magnetic, like an HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchd Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Still they have a rotor motor spinning them and a motor to place head(s) at the required place. Optical or magnetic or hydro-plutonic is just a technological variation and many HDD are not magnetic only.

BrewManNH Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Don't forget that CD/DVD drives focus the laser by moving the laser module up and down inside the assembly that holds it.
