    Seagate ST11R, an 8-bit ISA RLL hard disk controller produced in 1990. A disk controller is a controller circuit that enables a CPU to communicate with a hard disk, floppy disk or other kind of disk drive. It also provides an interface between the disk drive and the bus connecting it to the rest of the system. [1] [2] Early disk controllers ...

    Enhanced Small Disk Interface (ESDI) was an attempt to minimize controller design time by supporting multiple data rates with a standard data encoding scheme; this was usually negotiated automatically by the disk drive and controller; most of the time, however, 15 or 20 megabit ESDI disk drives were not downward compatible (i.e. a 15 or 20 ...

    Connecting such a drive to a host with an ATA-5 or earlier interface will limit the usable capacity to the maximum of the interface. Some operating systems, including Windows XP pre-SP1, and Windows 2000 pre-SP3, disable LBA48 by default, requiring the user to take extra steps to use the entire capacity of an ATA drive larger than about 137 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_adapter

    In computer hardware a host controller, host adapter or host bus adapter (HBA) connects a computer system bus which acts as the host system to other network and storage devices. [1] The terms are primarily used to refer to devices for connecting SCSI , SAS , NVMe , Fibre Channel and SATA devices. [ 2 ]

    Once the Windows device drivers are installed, a special USB command is sent to the device to “switch” it to modem mode. [6] [unreliable source] Ozerocdoff: It temporarily disables ZeroCD for USB Option WWAN modem. The new USB Option WWAN modem devices support a CD-ROM device, which holds the needed Windows device driver to use the WWAN modem.
