EDIT: Added code to print drive letter.
Check if this example works for you. It uses WMI.
Console.WriteLine("Manufacturer: {0}", queryObj["Manufacturer"]);
...
Console.WriteLine(" Name: {0}", c["Name"]); // here it will print drive letter
The full code sample:
namespace WMISample
{
using System;
using System.Management;
public class MyWMIQuery
{
public static void Main()
{
try
{
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher =
new ManagementObjectSearcher("root\\CIMV2",
"SELECT * FROM Win32_DiskDrive");
foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get())
{
Console.WriteLine("DeviceID: {0}", queryObj["DeviceID"]);
Console.WriteLine("PNPDeviceID: {0}", queryObj["PNPDeviceID"]);
Console.WriteLine("Manufacturer: {0}", queryObj["Manufacturer"]);
Console.WriteLine("Model: {0}", queryObj["Model"]);
foreach (ManagementObject b in queryObj.GetRelated("Win32_DiskPartition"))
{
Console.WriteLine(" Name: {0}", b["Name"]);
foreach (ManagementBaseObject c in b.GetRelated("Win32_LogicalDisk"))
{
Console.WriteLine(" Name: {0}", c["Name"]); // here it will print drive letter
}
}
// ...
Console.WriteLine("--------------------------------------------");
}
}
catch (ManagementException e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.StackTrace);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
I think those properties should help you distinguish genuine USB drives from the others. Test with several pen drives to check if the values are the same. See full reference for Win32_DiskDrive properties here:
