Returns drive type.
DriveGetType ( "path" [, operation = 1] )
| path | Path of drive to receive information from. |
| operation | [optional] The drive type operation to perform. $DT_DRIVETYPE (1) = the type of drive (default) $DT_SSDSTATUS (2) = SSD status of the drive $DT_BUSTYPE (3) = the bus type of drive Constants are defined in AutoItConstants.au3. |
| Success: | See remarks. |
| Failure: | Sets the @error flag to 1 if a bad path was given, or if the operation failed. Return value is "". |
If the mode parameter is $DT_DRIVETYPE (1), returns the type of drive. The path must be a string volume name, such as "C:\". Return values are:
"Unknown", "Removable", "Fixed", "Network", "CDROM", "RAMDisk"
If the mode parameter is $DT_SSDSTATUS (2), returns the SSD status of the drive. The path can be a string volume name, or an integer drive index. Return values are:
"SSD", "" (blank)
If the mode parameter is $DT_BUSTYPE (3), returns the bus type of the drive. The path can be a string volume name, or an integer drive index. Return values are:
"Unknown", "SCSI", "ATAPI", "ATA", "1394", "SSA", "Fibre", "USB", "RAID", "iSCSI", "SAS", "SATA", "SD", "MMC", "Virtual", "FileBackedVirtual"
