Is there a way to perform low level read/write to disk using python. For example, read 1 byte starting at some given position.

Open the raw disk device as a file, seek to the position, and read. – Barmar Jul 02 '19 at 01:46

You should google a question and come up with some solution before asking a question here. Googling "read byte from file python" just gave me a handful of links explaining how to do it, including StackOverflow explanations, as well as the documentation on the Python site with what you need. – Grismar Jul 02 '19 at 02:29

Just open disk path for binary read ("rb"), seek
to position and then read(n)
where n is number of bytes.
