Int 13/AX=1700h

Future Domain SCSI CONTROLLER - GET INQUIRY INFO FROM SCSI DEVICE

AX = 1700h
CL = length of buffer
DL = hard drive ID
ES:BX -> buffer for info (see #00243)

Return:
CF clear if successful
CH = number of bytes returned in buffer???
CF set on error
AH = status code (see #00234 at AH=01h)

Notes: This function is not available with 8-bit controller ROM versions < 7.0. Information block bytes 5-n are vendor-specific in older SCSI devices. The TMC-950 does not support any Future Domain BIOS calls; instead, it provides a full CAM implementation (see INT 4F/AX=8100h)
