+The sg3_utils package contains low level utilities for devices that use a SCSI
+command set. Apart from SCSI parallel interface (SPI) devices, the SCSI
+command set is used by ATAPI devices (CD/DVDs and tapes), USB mass storage
+devices, Fibre Channel disks, IEEE 1394 storage devices (that use the "SBP"
+protocol), SAS, iSCSI and FCoE devices (amongst others).
