Directory.GetLogicalDrives drive name?

[Dean Slindee]

Once you've gotten a list of logical drives with
Directory.GetLogicalDrives, how would you get the name associated with that
drive?

Thanks,
Dean Slindee

Thanks Herfried, that works for me.

Any idea how Windows Explorer determines the type of physical drive type
(like "DVD Drive" vs "CD Drive") to assign the node text when there is no
media in the drive?
