I know Diskmap (Resource Kit) but this tool need Admin rights ;-(

I test the Tool ntfsinfo (from http://www.sysinternals.com),
but it view only the volume size,
not the physical total size of the hard disk.

Has everyone another Idea?

I suspect any such tool will require administrator.

Perhaps a scripted AIDA32 report (ATA, Device, Unformatted Capacity)
will help. But I will bet it needs to run in an Administrators context
in order to query the drive.

Hey Martin,

It's great when you find what you wanted. <G>
Thanks for posting about COMPINFO. It goes in my kit and seems to be a
very useful addition!
