Attributes Summary

Data type Name and description
character Capabilities
Attribute that specifies the list of device capabilities. This is a character attribute that allows you to enter any value you want. However, you should enter only the values listed in this description. You can enter more than one of these values. Possible values are Unknown, Other, Sequential Access, Random Access, Supports Writing, Encryption, Compression, Supports Removeable Media, Manual Cleaning, Automatic Cleaning, SMART Notification, Supports Dual Sided Media (which means the device can automatically access both sides of dual-sided media; it does not read only one side and then require the media to be manually flipped), and Predismount Eject Not Required (which means media does not have to be explicitly ejected from the device before being accessed by a picker).
character CompressionMethod
Attribute that specifies the free-form string specifying the algorithm or tool used by the device to support compression. If you cannot describe the compression scheme, use the following words: "Unknown" (it is not known whether the device supports compression), "Compressed" (the device supports compression but its compression scheme is not known or not disclosed), or "Not Compressed" (the device does not support compression).
decimal DefaultBlockSize
Attribute that specifies the default block size, in bytes, for the device.
character DriveInterfaceType
Attribute that specifies the interface type of the media drive. Examples are SCSI and SATA;
integer DriveSCSITargetID
Attribute that specifies the SCSI identification number of the media drive;
decimal DriveSize
Attribute that specifies the size of the media drive in Gigabytes (GB). To calculate the size, multiply the number of cylinders, the tracks in each cylinder, the sectors in each track, and the gigabytes in each sector.;
decimal MaxBlockSize
Attribute that specifies the maximum block size, in bytes, for media accessed by the device.
decimal MaxMediaSize
Attribute that specifies the maximum size (in kilobytes) of media supported by the device. In this context, a kilobyte is defined as one byte multiplied by 1000 (NOT one byte multiplied by 1024).
enumeration MediaType
Attribute that specifies the type of media. Values are Removable media (0), which means cartridge and disk-based storage devices that can be used to move data easily between computers (for example, floppy disks, compact disks, flash memory cards, and external storage devices, such as USB flash drives); Fixed hard disk (1), which means unremovable media; and Unknown (2). No default value.
decimal MinBlockSize
Attribute that specifies the minimum block size, in bytes, for media accessed by the device.
integer NumberOfMediaSupported
Attribute that specifies the maximum number of individual media devices that the device can support or that can be inserted into the device.
