=======================================================

samiel at darkstar:~$ sg_raw /dev/sr0 be 00 ff ff ff ff 00 00 01 10 00 00 
--outfile=tdb_data.bin
SCSI Status: Check Condition

Sense Information:
Fixed format, current; Sense key: Illegal Request
Additional sense: Unaligned write command
=======================================================

Is it my test right and enough?
