ATA-ATAPI.COM also provides the C source code for the three ATA/ATAPI drivers: ATADRVR, ADVDRVR and MINDRVR. ATADRVR is used by ATACT and ATADEMO. ADVDRVR is used by ATAMDT. MINDRVR is ideal for use in embedded systems. The source code of these drivers is free and in the public domain with no restrictions on how they are used. Use these drivers to create your own testing programs.

ATADEMO ATADEMO is able to execute any ATA/ATAPI command, using the standard ATA/ATAPI command protocols, from keyboard input or script file input. Perform write/read tests with data compare using only a few simple commands. Script files support IF/ELSE logic, CALL/RETURN for subroutines, WHILE loops, built-in and user defined variables and much more.

Additional Information About Our Testing Products

System requirements: ATACT, ATADEMO and ATAMDT are DOS real mode programs. These are typically run from a DOS boot floppy, bootable CD or bootable USB drive.

ATA Controllers supported: These programs access the ATA controller and drive hardware directly. Currently only ATA host controllers that use the traditional ATA programming interface are supported - see the T13 document INCITS 370-2004 (1510D): ATA Host Adapter Standards.

License: ATACT, ATADEMO and ATAMDT have a site license.

Our Free ATA Driver Products

Program Description Devices Tested Current Version Price
ATADRVR ATADRVR is a basic low level I/O driver for ATA/ATAPI. It supports all the ATA/ATAPI command protocols for PIO and DMA (both ISA bus DMA and PCI Bus Mastering DMA). ATADRVR also supports all four PCMCIA PC Card ATA interface modes. ATADRVR supports one or two ATA/ATAPI devices on the same ATA channel. ATADRVR was developed using Borland C 4.5x for execution in DOS real mode.

All standard ATA/ATAPI PIO and DMA protcols are supported using ATA controllers operating in traditional/legacy (ISA), PCI Bus Mastering (PATA or SATA) and PC Card ATA I/O, Memory and TrueIDE modes. 16M FREE
ADVDRVR ADVDRVR is a basic low level I/O driver for ATA/ATAPI. It supports up to eight devices on up to eight ATA controllers. All PIO and PCI Bus Mastering DMA command protocols are supported. ADVDRVR was developed using Borland C 4.5x for execution in DOS real mode.
