Get The HDD Disk Drive Information?
Mar 3, 2010I am trying to get the HDD Disk Drive information from the DeviceIOControl(,,,,,) function with IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_LAYOUT_EX control code.

2. DRIVE_LAYOUT_INFORMATION_EX structure contains a union declaration as mentioned on MSDN , HOW TO GET A UNION in VB.NET or vb 6.
3. Still when i tried declaring the data types as mentioned earlier gives an error (Value does not fall within the expected range.) executing the DeviceIOControl Method.

VS 2008 A From To Backup To A Drive From My Computer
Aug 19, 2010A form that will have a drop down menu that will display the drives available in My computer. I really only want this list to show USB drives, but I wouldn't know how to limit the list to only show certain drive letters. And then how you would know what Drive letter would appear.So they would select there backup location from the drop down. Then the next option would be to select from 3 or 4 different different options that would have have radio buttons next to the options that you could select. Would be like: Playlists, Schedule, Media Library. They could select all or one of these. Each of these would represent a folder, or File that would be copied to a folder on the selected USB drive. Then the final button would be labelled Backup, and upon pressing that depending on what options were selected files would start to copy.
Now I know how to do the final copy part kinda, what I don't know is how to do is select the destination on the fly from what was selected in the drop down menu. And then how to make sure that what is being copied is that that is selected from the check boxes.
