+parameters on any device that uses a SCSI command set.  Such devices
+include CD/DVD drives (irrespective of transport), SCSI and ATAPI tape
+drives, and SCSI enclosures.  A small set of commands associated with
+starting and stopping the media, loading and unloading removable media
+and some other housekeeping functions can also be sent with this utility.")
