The Drive Object
The Drive object is used to return information about a local disk drive or a network share.
The Drive object can return information about a drive's type of file system, free space,
serial number, volume name, and more.
Note: You cannot return information about a drive's content with the
Drive object. For this purpose you will have to use the Folder object.
To work with the properties of the Drive object, you will have to create an
instance of the Drive object through the FileSystemObject
object. First; create a FileSystemObject object and then instantiate the Drive object
through the GetDrive method or
the Drives property of the FileSystemObject object.
The following example uses the GetDrive method of the FileSystemObject object to
instantiate the Drive object and the TotalSize property to return the total size in bytes of
the specified drive (c:):
<%
Dim fs,d
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set d=fs.GetDrive("c:")
Response.Write("Drive " & d & ":")
Response.Write("Total size in bytes: " & d.TotalSize)
set d=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>
Output:
Drive c: Total size in bytes: 4293563392
