Question

In C# how do you detect is a specific drive is a Hard Drive, Network Drive, CDRom, or floppy?

Answer 1

DriveInfo.DriveType should work for you.

DriveInfo[] allDrives = DriveInfo.GetDrives();

foreach (DriveInfo d in allDrives)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Drive {0}", d.Name);
    Console.WriteLine("  File type: {0}", d.DriveType);
}
