If you plug the device directly into a Linux system, run lsusb -v & look for 
your device, you'd see several fields listed under its interface descriptor.

    Interface Descriptor:
      ...
      bInterfaceClass         8 Mass Storage
      bInterfaceSubClass      6 SCSI
      bInterfaceProtocol     80 Bulk (Zip)

SRSS implements 8/6/80 & 8/5/80.
