Adaptec ASPI layer updated - enables tagged queuing commands


A while ago Adaptec released a new version of their ASPI layer and since November 23rd we can find another updated version on their website:


ASPI drivers version v4.71.2:

Updated ASPI drivers version 4.71.2 for Windows 98, NT 4, Me, 2000 and XP. Includes ASPICHK version checking utility. Adaptec provides this software without charge and as a courtesy to Adaptec product users but offers no technical support regarding this software.

The change in 4.72 from earlier versions is that it enables tagged queuing for read/write commands.


Note that this latest ASPI version does not work anymore for Windows 95. You can download this latest version and read the install method here.

why all this fuss about aspi? you know how many programmes on your harddisc rely on it? probably none. I have 3: cdr identifier and clony/scout. audiograbber uses another method, although it could also use aspi, but not a good idea, not very stable. so all the fuss because of three progs? besides, there are possible conflicts between aspi and other programmes, like winoncd 5/audiograbber. so here's my advice: remove aspi altogether, you don't need it
Except that CDRWin won't work without it. ;)
Feurio also likes a good aspi-layer
And i like Feurio for my audio cd's ;)
CDEX needs an aspi layer as well.
So too do both discdump and burnatonce, two of my favourite proggies (both freeware). Mind you, both probably work best with the 4.6 version of aspi.
They say - all habits die hard. That's why I still stay with the the v.4.6
