how to get logical drives and driveinfo in asp.net using C#

DropDownlist Binding to LogicalDrives in asp.net






Step1) Create a ASP.NET Empty WebSite using VB.NET 4.0/4.5
Step 2)  Add new Page name it as Default.aspx
Step3) Add DropDownList and Label


    add event handler for OnSelectedIndexChanged and Autopostback set to true.otheriwise post back will not occur when selection changes in DropDownList
 
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true" OnSelectedIndexChanged="DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged">
            <asp:ListItem Selected="True">Select Logical Drive</asp:ListItem>
        </asp:DropDownList>
        <br />
        <br />
        <asp:Label ID="lblMsg" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>


Step 4)  Add a Method to get LogicalDrives
        String() GetLogicalDrives()       
        {
           
            Return System.Environment.GetLogicalDrives()
        }
 Step 5) Add a method to get DriveInfo

Private Function GetDriveInfo(drive As [String]) As [String]
    Dim str As String = "Drive not Ready"
    Try
        Dim dInfo As New DriveInfo(drive)

        If dInfo.IsReady Then
            str = "<b>AvailableFreeSpace</b>:" + Get_Size_in_KB_MB_GB(CULng(dInfo.AvailableFreeSpace), 0) + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>TotalFreeSpace</b>:" + Get_Size_in_KB_MB_GB(CULng(dInfo.TotalFreeSpace), 0) + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>TotalSize</b>:" + Get_Size_in_KB_MB_GB(CULng(dInfo.TotalSize), 0) + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>VolumeLabel</b>:" + dInfo.VolumeLabel + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>RootDirectory</b>:" + dInfo.RootDirectory + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>Name</b>:" + dInfo.Name + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>DriveType</b>:" + dInfo.DriveType + "<br/>"
            str += "<b>DriveFormat</b>:" + dInfo.DriveFormat + "<br/>"
        End If
    Catch ex As Exception
    End Try
    Return str
End Function

      
 
Step 6)  Bind Logical Drives Array to DropDownList

DropDownList1.DataSource = GetLogicalDrives()
DropDownList1.DataBind()

Step 7) Add Default value to DropDownList
                DropDownList1.Items.Insert(0,"Select Logical Drive")
Step 8) Add Code for DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged
            ListItem item=DropDownList1.SelectedItem
            lblMsg.Text=GetDriveInfo(item.Text)


Step 9) Convert Bytes to KB,MB,GB in C#
 
Private sizeArry As [String]() = New [String]() {"Byes", "KB", "MB", "GB"}
Private Function Get_Size_in_KB_MB_GB(sizebytes As ULong, index As Integer) As [String]

    If sizebytes < 1000 Then
        Return sizebytes + sizeArry(index)
    Else

        Return Get_Size_in_KB_MB_GB(sizebytes / 1024, System.Threading.Interlocked.Increment(index))
    End If

End Function

 
Step 10) Run the WebPage  Default.aspx
