Normally, I am going to work with that hard disk in solaris. But sometimes, I need to take some data from that hard disk into another computers which run windows.
So the fact of using special drivers for windows so it can read the hard disk is not very viable. Because that means I will have to install those drivers in every windows machine I use.
I'm gonna study this NAS box solution, and if it doesn't work, I will just use a fat32 file system. Anyways it's just a data hard disk. I dont want to install any operating systems on it.
Thank you all for your help. Tomorrow I will tell you how the experiment finished.
Regards!

hdio(7I) Ioctl Requests hdio(7I)
NAME
hdio - SMD and IPI disk control operations
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/hdio.h>
DESCRIPTION
Note - The SMC and IPI drivers have been discontinued. dkio(7I) is now the preferred method for retrieving disk information.
The SMD and IPI disk drivers supplied with this release support a set of ioctl(2) requests for diagnostics and bad sector information.
Basic to these ioctl() requests are the definitions in <sys/hdio.h>.
IOCTLS
HDKIOCGTYPE The argument is a pointer to a hdk_type structure (described below). This ioctl() gets specific information from the hard
disk.
HDKIOCSTYPE The argument is a pointer to a hdk_type structure (described below). This ioctl() sets specific information about the hard
disk.
/*
* Used for drive info
*/
struct hdk_type {
ushort_t hdkt_hsect; /* hard sector count (read only) */
ushort_t hdkt_promrev; /* prom revision (read only) */
uchar_t hdkt_drtype; /* drive type (ctlr specific) */
uchar_t hdkt_drstat; /* drive status (ctlr specific, ro) */
};
HDKIOCGBAD The argument is a pointer to a hdk_badmap structure (described below). This ioctl() is used to get the bad sector map from
the disk.
HDKIOCSBAD The argument is a pointer to a hdk_badmap structure (described below). This ioctl() is used to set the bad sector map on
the disk.
/*
* Used for bad sector map
*/
struct hdk_badmap {
caddr_t hdkb_bufaddr; /* address of user's map buffer */
};
HDKIOCGDIAG The argument is a pointer to a hdk_diag structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the most recent command that failed
along with the sector and error number from the hard disk.
/*
* Used for disk diagnostics
*/
struct hdk_diag {
ushort_t hdkd_errcmd; /* most recent command in error */
daddr_t hdkd_errsect; /* most recent sector in error */
uchar_t hdkd_errno; /* most recent error number */
uchar_t hdkd_severe; /* severity of most recent error */
};
