Try using the Search function - I remember seeing a UDF out there somewhere which identifies burner drives.

This is how add to a ComboBox (no error checking added) for your reference. Plus have a look at _WinAPI_GetDriveType() in WinAPIEx.au3 by Yashied.
AutoIt
_Main() Func _Main() Local $iCombo, $aDrive, $sDriveData = "Please Select A Drive..." & "|", $sRead GUICreate("Optical Drives", 210, 60) $iCombo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 5, 5) $iButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Select", 140, 32.5, 65, 20) $aDrive = DriveGetDrive("CDROM") For $i = 1 To $aDrive[0] $sDriveData &= StringUpper($aDrive[$i]) & "\" & "|" Next GUICtrlSetData($iCombo, $sDriveData, "Please Select A Drive...") GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case -3 Exit Case $iButton $sRead = GUICtrlRead($iCombo) If $sRead == "Please Select A Drive..." Then MsgBox(16, "You Selected", "Please Select A Drive.") Else MsgBox(16, "You Selected", $sRead) EndIf EndSwitch WEnd EndFunc ;==>_Main

Function:
#include <Constants.au3> MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, '', 'The media type of the E:\ drive is: ' & _GetDriveMediaType('E:')) Func _GetDriveMediaType($sDrive) Local $oWMIService = ObjGet('winmgmts:\\.\root\cimv2') Local $oColItems = $oWMIService.ExecQuery('Select * From Win32_CDROMDrive Where Drive = "' & StringLeft($sDrive, 2) & '"', 'WQL', 0x30), $sReturn = '' If IsObj($oColItems) Then For $oObjectItem In $oColItems $sReturn &= $oObjectItem.MediaType Next EndIf Return SetError($sReturn = '', 0, $sReturn) EndFunc ;==>_GetDriveMediaType
