Method to send IO commands to different ports of an HDD connected to a SAS controller.

[P Krish]

Hello,
I am looking for ways to independently connect to the different ports of a SAS drive.

Is there a windows mechanism similar to SCSI passthrough mechanism where we can specify the ports, so we can have a different path from application to each port to perform I/O operation?

Is there a way to use GET_Initiator() command to achieve this?

In Linux we are able to create two nexus to each drive port. How can we achieve this in Windows?

Thanks.
