GeneralRetrieve the Name of a Disk Drive Pin
Mark Sanders28-Jan-03 5:30
Mark Sanders28-Jan-03 5:30 
Here is the situation:
I am writing an application that needs to detect a specific USB MMC card reader connected to the computer. I need to do this so that I can make the default save path for my application automatically be the card reader.

Possible Solution to Try:
An idea that I have is to check each drive on the computer and when the name of the drive matches the name of the reader I will know I have the right drive. I don't know how to get the name of the drive programatically but on my Windows XP Pro Machine I...

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. Right click on the reader (labeled "Removable Disk (F)")
3. Select Properties.
4. Select the Hardware tab from the Removable Disk Properties.
5. Under the hardware tab there will be a list of "All disk drives:". In this list the specific name of the reader is listed as "eUSB Secure Digital USB Device."

"eUSB Secure Digital USB Device" is the name that I need. This name is also displayed under "Disk Drives" in the "Device Manager".

Suggestions:
1. Do you think this is a good idea to try?
2. Do you know how to do an part of the above proposal programatically?

I would like to stay in C# as much as possible but I have a feeling this is only going to be able to be done using the Windows API or some other non-.NET way.

Thank you for your help. Smile | :)
