Mac OS X supports an ATA or SCSI device with a stack of drivers that manage the services used by the system from the device. This technology also provides applications with access to specific device functionality based on the peripheral type of the device. This session covers how applications can access the functionality provided by such devices through the use of file systems, BSD nodes, IORegistry, and both system and custom user clients. Partition schemes and filters are also discussed.
