Sending IDENTIFY DEVICE COMMAND - ATA PASS THROUGH on raid - SSD

Question

My aim is to detect Solid State Drives in systems with raid configuration. Using smartmontools' following command I observe bit 434 (217) shows value 1 for SSD: smartctl -i -r ataioctl,2 /dev/csmi0,0

Attempting to read the same 512 bytes of data I am trying to send IDENTIFY DEVICE commands in following 2 ways:

Method 1 fails with DeviceIoControl() set GetLastError() as 87 (ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER), Can you help me in understanding what could be wrong and am I on the right track?

Method 2 has info->IoctlHeader.ReturnCode = 3 which means CSMI_SAS_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.(CSMI buffer provided is too small)

///////// Method 1 /////////

handle = CreateFile(L"\\\\.\\PhysicalDrive0",

                    NULL,
                    NULL);
if (handle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{ 
    printf("Unable to open handle to device , Error %u\n", GetLastError());         
    return 1;
}

//Allocate memory for ATA_PASS_THROUGH_EX and clear the contents 
pATAData = (PATA_PASS_THROUGH_EX) VirtualAlloc(NULL, dataSize, MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);
