IOCTL_DISK_DELETE_SECTORS (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This IOCTL deletes a specified range of sectors. This is used by the FAL to indicate that the sectors are no longer needed. The sectors are then recycled in the proper manner. For example, this IOCTL should be called by a file system on sectors that are no longer used when a file is deleted.
