On Windows I am able to sent SCSI passthrough to devices using win32file.DeviceIOControl(..), on UN*X I can do it using fnctl.ioctl(…).
I have been searching for something equivalent in OSX that would allow me to send the IOCTL commands using only native python.
I would to send commands to hard drives specifically, not USB devices.
Is there anyway to do it without writing a Kernel Extension or any other code using only standard python libraries?
I saw this blog post recently talking about using SCSI passthrough under OS X. Looks like it isn’t as easy as Windows or Unix
