detect mass-storage device

[John Rauhe]

Hello,
Does anybody know how to detect if an mass-storage device has been added to
the system ? I am making a program that will (should) detect when a
CompactFlash memory card has been inserted into a PC (and is identified as a
mass-storage device). However i cant fugure out how to do it using c#.
regards
john

John,

There's an article on CodeProject which might just do what you want:

Please read the comments carefully, there's one saying how to enable monitoring
of other devices but DVD/CD.
