B10.1.3.1 Pass all WHQL tests - See B1.3.
See “Storage Controllers and Devices” in the HCT documentation.
B10.1.3.2 - See B10.1.3.1, B10.1.4.7 B10.1.3.3 - See B10.1.3.1 B10.1.4.1 DELETED – See B1.4.4 B10.1.4.2 Bootable controller supports El Torito No Emulation mode; option ROM supports INT 13h Extensions
SCSI host adapters with boot ROMs must support the current No Emulation mode of the “El Torito”–Bootable CD-ROM Format Specification, Version 1.0 and the BIOS Boot Specification, Version 1.01.
The INT 13h Extensions ensure correct support for high-capacity drives, and consistent drive-letter mapping between real mode and protected mode. Support for the fixed-disk access subset of INT 13h Extensions must be provided in the system BIOS and in any option ROMs for storage devices that include BIOS support. The INT 13h Extensions are defined in the “Layered Block Device Drivers” section of the Windows DDK.
The intent of the requirement for media status notification is for devices to support the commands of the implemented bus interface so the operating system can detect when a media event has taken place. The requirements for removable storage devices are defined in the following table; they apply either to single LUN devices or to devices that are part of a Multiple LUN device.
A CD-R/RW drive must support the following Get Event/Status Notification commands:
Operational Change Request/Notification
External Request
Media Request
Device Busy
The following list shows the required specifications for implementing media status notification, depending on device type.
