How to detect dynamic disks

NTFSD
1

I would like to be able to distinguish between basic disks and dynamic
disks in my filter driver. However, I see no flags in Ntifs.h that shed
any light on this.

Anyone know what the arcanum is for this?

Thanks,

IOCTL_VOLUME_QUERY_VOLUME_NUMBER gives volume number and storage manager
name. This ioctl succeeds on Basis disk volumes but fails on Dynamic
volumes.
