Years ago I developed a Hard Disk Drive diagnostic program "SCSIPython" while working for a disk drive company. When I left that company,and realized that these routines would never be used by the company, I released it as Open Source. Since then I have maintained this code, and enhanced it with the various versions of Python that have been released after V1.5. I find that with each update my code becomes more robust,with added features. Also As I moved from company to company I made certain that they knew that this code was Open Source,and only proprietary methods will be excluded, when I signed the standard intellectual property forms.
