+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+For the NVMe device given, sends the wdc vendor unique drive log
+request and saves the result to a file.
+
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe
+character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex:
+/dev/nvme0n1).
+
+This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature.
+Results for any other device are undefined.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-o <FILE>::
+--output-file=<FILE>::
+ Output file; defaults to device serial number followed by "drive_log" suffix

+# nvme wdc drive-log /dev/nvme0
+------------
+* Gets the drive log from the device and saves to defined file in current directory (e.g. testSTM00019F3F9drive_log.bin):
++
+------------
+# nvme wdc drive-log /dev/nvme0 -o test
+------------
