Hi,

On the HGST SS300 (SAS SSD), smartctl won't display the drive physical block size if the drive just went through a soft reset (tested on r5031) :

root@rescue:~# smartctl -i /dev/sg22 | grep -i block
Logical block size:   512 bytes
Physical block size:  4096 bytes
root@rescue:~# sg_reset -d /dev/sg22
root@rescue:~# smartctl -i /dev/sg22 | grep -i block
Logical block size:   512 bytes
root@rescue:~# 

If we try to read the capacity using another tool, a Unit Attention is raised on the first command issued after the reset :

root@rescue:~# sg_reset -d /dev/sg22
root@rescue:~# sg_readcap -l /dev/sg22
read capacity (16):  Fixed format, current;  Sense key: Unit Attention
 Additional sense: Bus device reset function occurred
READ CAPACITY (16) failed: Unit attention
root@rescue:~# sg_readcap -l /dev/sg22
Read Capacity results:
   Protection: prot_en=0, p_type=0, p_i_exponent=0
   Logical block provisioning: lbpme=1, lbprz=1
   Last logical block address=781422767 (0x2e9390af), Number of logical blocks=781422768
   Logical block length=512 bytes
   Logical blocks per physical block exponent=3 [so physical block length=4096 bytes]
   Lowest aligned logical block address=0
Hence:
   Device size: 400088457216 bytes, 381554.1 MiB, 400.09 GB

I enclosed the output of "smartctl -r scsiioctl -i /dev/sg22", and it looks like smartctl will fallback to a READ CAPACITY(10) when the first READ CAPACITY(16) failed :

>>>> do_scsi_cmnd_io: sg_io_ver=3
 [read capacity(16): 9e 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 ]
  scsi_status=0x2, sg_transport_status=0x0, sg_driver_status=0x8
  sg_info=0x1  sg_duration=4 milliseconds  resid=32
  status=2: sense_key=6 asc=29 ascq=3
scsiGetSize: READ CAPACITY(16) failed, res=8
>>>> do_scsi_cmnd_io: sg_io_ver=3
 [read capacity(10): 25 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ]
  scsi_status=0x0, sg_transport_status=0x0, sg_driver_status=0x0
  sg_info=0x0  sg_duration=0 milliseconds  resid=0

This could probably be fixed by retrying the READ CAPACITY(16) when a Unit Attention is raised, but I don't know if this specific case is easy to detect ?

Feel free to ask if you need more details.

Request to add Kingston KC600 series to drivedb.

Hello, I would like to report that the Corsair SSD and HDD Cloning kit identified as [0x0984:0x0301 (0x0201)] is working with the option -d sat. It is another variant of the Apricorn SATA Wire (2.5") but with Corsair logo. The test was performed on Windows 10. Thank you,
