read_sectors Method

Reads data from sectors of a disk.

Syntax

def read_sectors(volume_handle: int, starting_sector: int, sector_count: int, buffer: bytes) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method reads data from sectors of the disk identified by VolumeHandle.

The value passed for VolumeHandle must be a volume handle obtained from the open_volume method; refer to its documentation for more information.

The StartingSector parameter specifies which sector to begin reading data from.

The SectorCount parameter specifies how many sectors of data to read.

The data from the disk is read into Buffer, which must be large enough to contain all of the requested data; i.e., SectorCount * SectorSize, where SectorSize is the value returned by get_sector_size.
