DriveGet.... including off-line drives

[quasimodo]

Hi,

I'm looking for a function which return ALL (windows)drive numbers and serial numbers inluding the drives which are currently set offline (e.g. by diskpart). The only "Drive..." function accepting a drive number seems to be "DriveGetType".  Even only getting the serial number of an off-line disk would help too.

$wmic = Run(@ComSpec & " /c" & @ComSpec & ' /c ' & "wmic diskdrive get serialnumber","", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
    Local $Output = ""
    While 1
        $Output &= StdoutRead($wmic)
        If @error Then ExitLoop
    Wend
    $sOutput=StringSplit($Output,@CR)
    for $a=1 to $sOutput[0]
            ConsoleWrite($sOutput[$a])
    next
    
    $vol = Run(@ComSpec & " /c" & @ComSpec & ' /c ' & "vol C:","", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
    Local $Output = ""
    While 1
        $Output &= StdoutRead($vol)
        If @error Then ExitLoop
    Wend
    $sOutput=StringSplit($Output,@CR)
    for $a=1 to $sOutput[0]
            ConsoleWrite($sOutput[$a])
    next

Thank you very much for this script. Seems that wmic opens a quit new view inside windows!

But there is a secret left: Why do you insert "@ComSpec" a second time into the run() command? It's working without it, too.
