Drive Info...

[nagasrikanth]

Hi guys...This is my first post in this thread..Im really new to VB.Net..

welll..Just now i would like to create a project where in it will shows all the drives in the system and the free space,used space,Volume name etc..

I want to develop the same in the asp.net with the help of vb.net..

now,If u come to my problem,I have the information that how to gather the data using File system objects which requires libraries,i dont think that every user of my application will have it (or is it enough,if the dll was registered in the server as it is a web app)..
and one more thing that was really bothering me is.."im not getting correct IDEA on how to present the same in the front end..."

Can u guys please suggest me on the same..


Thanx & regards
Srikanth.

This will get your hard drive info. Check out the other classes in the ManagementClass (WMI).

Dim objMan As New Management.ManagementClass("Win32_DiskDrive")
Dim objCol As Management.ManagementObjectCollection = objMan.GetInstances
Dim objItem As Management.ManagementObject
For Each objItem In objCol
    Dim pi As Management.PropertyDataCollection = objItem.Properties
    Dim p As Management.PropertyData
    For Each p In pi
        Console.WriteLine(p.Name & " : " & Convert.ToString(p.Value))
    Next
Next
