I need options for API's that handle file systems. I know Dokan, do you know others?

Dokan is the only free one for Windows that I know of, and it works quite well. I have written a filesystem that is backed by an SQL database, just for fun.

As for commercial products, I came across this when I was looking for a solution, but I cannot comment on it since I never actually got to try it out.

If you can use the JDK7 betas you can take advantage of the new java.nio.file APIs there: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javase/nio/

Erk, didn't see that, sorry. Indeed, the JDK7 file API is far more extensive than the traditional API. Cheers for the link, Eric.

Not exactly sure what you want, but mogileFS comes to mind.

This page shows an implementation in Java for the Dokan called Jdokan
