Probably there are many mistakes. Someone want to check it out?

Thanks! 😀

Any reason why you don't use DriveGetType("c:\",2) ?

[Terenz]

On external disk not work in my case, so i have see a different approach on stackoverflow and i want to try it out. But with DllCall i have some difficuties 😅

Here my take on it :

#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>
#include <WinAPIHObj.au3>

IsSSD("D:")

Func IsSSD($sDriveLetter)
  Local Const $tagSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY = 'int PropertyId; int QueryType; byte AdditionalParameters[1];'
  Local Const $tagDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR = 'dword Version;dword Size;byte IncursSeekPenalty;'

  $sDriveLetter = StringRegExpReplace($sDriveLetter, "([[:alpha:]]:).*", "$1")
  If @error Then Return SetError(1)
  Local $hDevice = _WinAPI_CreateFile('\\.\' & $sDriveLetter, 2, 0, 6, 0, 0)
  If Not $hDevice Then Return SetError(2)

  Local $tSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY = DllStructCreate($tagSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY)
  $tSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY.PropertyId = 7
  Local $tDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR = DllStructCreate($tagDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR)
  Local $iRes = _WinAPI_DeviceIoControl($hDevice, $IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY, _
      DllStructGetPtr($tSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY), DllStructGetSize($tSTORAGE_PROPERTY_QUERY), _
      DllStructGetPtr($tDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR), DllStructGetSize($tDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR))
  _WinAPI_CloseHandle($hDevice)
  If Not $iRes then Return SetError(3)

  ConsoleWrite($sDriveLetter & " is SSD " & Not $tDEVICE_SEEK_PENALTY_DESCRIPTOR.IncursSeekPenalty & @CRLF)
EndFunc   ;==>GetDiskSerial

Work fine! Thanks, i'll study it (and i don't have find on Google _WinAPI_DeviceIoControl lol, didn't know it already exist). Thanks again!
