Abstract
A disk controller and associated method where conventional disk drive size files stored in the host computer are replaced with a drive size list maintained in the disk drive device controller. The disk size list structure permits the controller to do the disk drive sizing and provides a simplified list of disk drive size ranges that can be applied to all disk drives on the system regardless of disk drive make, model, or manufacturer. A disk drive size list can be generated from the existing disk drive configuration and maintained and updated with a minimum of user interaction.
