Installed Disk Drive

Hi, Gurus.

I am not sure that my question is appropriate to this NewsGroup or not, if
my posting is not appropriate, please let me know where I can ask.

I have a filesystem filter driver and I would like to enumerate how many
disk(s) is available in my driver. This is not volume, phisical disk…

Could you please give any advice or pointer to study such?

Thanks,
Hideyuki Inamasu.

If you are a filesystem filter driver then you are well above the volume or
disk stack. So, by definition, from the filesystem filter driver, there is
one volume ‘under’ the filter. Of course, there could be a software RAID
solution implemented below you and the ‘volume’ is actually striped across
several disks but this information is probably not exposed out except
through some proprietary IOCtl.
