To return information about a local disk drive or a network share,the Drive object is used.To know about a drive's type of file system, free space, serial number, volume name, and more, the Drive object is used.

Note: With the Drive object, you cannot return information about a drive's content. The Folder object is used for this purpose .

You will have to create an instance of the Drive object through the FileSystemObject object to work with the properties of the Drive object . First; create a FileSystemObject object and then instantiate the Drive object using GetDrive method or the Drives property of the FileSystemObject object.

To instantiate the Drive object and the TotalSize property to return the total size in bytes of the specified drive (D:),the following example uses the GetDrive method of the FileSystemObject object :

<% Dim fs,d
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set d=fs.GetDrive("D:")
Response.Write("Drive " & d & ":")
Response.Write("Total size in bytes: " & d.TotalSize)
set d=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>

Output:

Drive D: Total size in bytes: 4293563392
