Is there a SATA interface monitoring software tool?

Question

reverse engineering

Is it possible to see the low-level information exchange between the OS and the SATA device without using a hardware protocol analyzer?

Answer 1

If you just need to see which process writes what and where, then you need the Procmon utility from the SysinternalsSuite package. If you need to somehow influence the transmitted data, then here on Habré there is a detailed article about the development of the MiniFilter driver for the file system: https://habr.com/post/176739/
