"I wanna to know the
fundamental "why"."

...because the IOCTL isn't implemented?


"or how can I get a disk(whatever,ATA,SCSI,USB )'s real size(including
additional sectors) in a easy way in windows 2000, just like there is such a
function,"

Sorry, I don't know.

I'm not asking a official document to tell me, hi dude, Minimum supported client of IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX is Windows XP, it is not supported by W2k, I asked the question here because I wanna to know the fundamental "why".

Still thank you,friend!
