Class 8 - Mass Storage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a very versatile device class that will support a large number
of storage devices. This can be removable
media (e.g. ZIP), external floppies, 6-in-1 card readers, FLASH Pen drives,
external USB harddisc and most cameras. Various internal protocols may be
used however, so it is worth checking the full class ID first. RISC OS 5
currently supports USB Mass Storage devices that use the SCSI protocol.

Class 9 - HUB
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This class is the most common one as it will be found on virtually
every computer supporting USB. Any interface card with more than
one USB port on it contains a Hub and further Hubs can be cascaded
to allow more devices to be connected.

Class 10 - Data Interface Class
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This class contains a wide range of devices that can be used for
streaming data, such as webcams. Many different protocols exist in
this class and many devices will use Vendor-Specific protocols.

Class 255 - Vendor-Specific
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This class contains devices that do not fall into any other
class, or devices with the vendor-specific interface and/or
protocol. Availability of a RISC OS driver for such a device
should not be taken for granted and will be largely dependent
on the cooperation of the manufacturer.
