The library could easily be used for devices supporting the Opalite and Pyrite
SSCs, not just the Opal SSC. With some effort, I suspect that Enterprise SSC
could also be supported. So, a broader name might indeed be useful.
The full names of the specifications are:
TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class: Opal
TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class: Opalite
TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class: Pyrite
TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class: Enterprise
