Detecting SCSI media

[sroohani]

Hi all,

I have retrieved a list of all hard drives in my system through GetLogicalDrives and GetDriveType. Now, the problem is that I don't know how to detect which one is IDE and which one is SCSI. Any idea?

Regards,
Shahram

You can use Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).
Look for DeviceID in Win32_DiskDrive for Harddisk, Win32_CDROMDrive for CD.

Here is the link:

You can also use ASPI programming if you want. But it is more complicated. Go to adaptec site for ASPI programming reference

Good luck
