We would like a sample application written in C that reads and writes using CreateFile and [\\\\.\\PHYSICALDRIVE0][1]. This will give raw access to the drive. And then moves to sector 33 and/or sector 32. Then, it should make sure how many bytes / sector the drive is by asking it, and then reads/writes up to 512 bytes there (if the sector size is 512 bytes, which it usually is, but once again, ask the drive..) We will aslo provide bonuses for: 1) Reading without admin rights if at all possible 2) Notes on Vista compatibility 3) Additional notes on other "hidden" locations where data can be hidden. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
