VDSBusTypeUnknown:  Bus type is unknown.

VDSBusTypeScsi:  Disk resides on a SCSI bus.

VDSBusTypeAtapi:  Disk resides on an AT Attachment Packet Interface (ATAPI) bus. For more information on this bus type, see [ANSI/INCITS-397-2005].

VDSBusTypeAta:  Disk resides on an AT Attached (ATA) bus. For more information on this bus type, see [ANSI/INCITS-451-2008].

VDSBusType1394:  Disk resides on an IEEE 1394 bus. For more information, see [IEEE1394-2008].

VDSBusTypeSsa:  Disk resides on a serial storage architecture (SSA) bus. For more information on this bus type, see [IEEE-SSA].

VDSBusTypeFibre:  Disk resides on a fiber channel bus.

VDSBusTypeUsb:  Disk resides on a universal serial bus (USB).

VDSBusTypeRAID:  Disk resides on a RAID bus.

VDSBusTypeiScsi:  Disk resides on an iSCSI bus.

VDSBusTypeSas:  Disk resides on a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) bus. For more information on this bus type, see [ANSI/INCITS-457-2010].

VDSBusTypeSata:  Disk resides on a Serial ATA (SATA) bus. For more information on this bus type, see [SATA-3.0].

VDSBusTypeSd:  Disk resides on a secure digital (SD) bus.

VDSBusTypeMmc:  Indicates a multimedia card (MMC) bus type. For information on multimedia cards, which are a flash memory card standard, see [JEDEC-MO227-A].

VDSBusTypeMax:  Maximum bus type value. Note that this value does not identify a particular bus type; rather, it serves as an end value of the enumeration.<7>

VDSBusTypeVirtual:  The disk SHOULD<8> reside on a virtual bus

VDSBusTypeFileBackedVirtual:  Disk is backed by a file.

VDSBusTypeSpaces:  The disk SHOULD<9> be backed by Storage Spaces.

VDSBusTypeMaxReserved:  Maximum reserved bus type value. Bus type values below this range are reserved.
