Open-AudIT

Dear all,
The windows set 'SATA' Disk to 'SCSI' DIskDrive's interface type . So OA get the 'SATA' interface tyep with 'SCSI ' .
But if you see the PNPDeviceID , you can see the value is IDE\somedata or SCSI\somedata .
So if this is possible . we add some flow controls with interface_type and pnpdeviceid , then we can insert the correct value to DB. ( Although just decide it is/isn't SATA )

If anyone have finish this or has another idea , please tell me , Thank you.

Oh, I am wrong .
I try to update my DB record and sucess with few records.
So I check it again .
I found if I have SATA type hard_drive , PNPDeviceID is not very correct with SCSI or IDE .
Maybe it has something I missed.
It still need help.

I think I see what you mean. For example a Dell Optiplex GX620 with 80Gb SATA drive reports...

... this seems to suggest that the drive is actually IDE (which it obviously is not).
I am unsure how we work round this, because presumably the OS treats the drive as IDE, and therefore WMI reports it as such. Ideas anybody?
