Hi,
In Windows we can open and read storage meidias by using the call  
CreateFile() and ReadFile() respecively. The device name is passed as a  
string to the CreateFile() call, as an example "PhysicalDrive1". Create  
file returns  a handle of type "HANDLE". can I use this handle in asio in  
order to read a device file?

Thanks,
  Lloyd
