// Sample for the Environment.GetLogicalDrives method
using System;

class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
    Console.WriteLine();

    Console.WriteLine("GetLogicalDrives: {0}", String.Join(", ", drives));
    }
}

Class Sample
   Public Shared Sub Main()
      Console.WriteLine()
      Dim drives As [String]() = Environment.GetLogicalDrives()

Remarks

On Windows, GetLogicalDrives returns the names of all accessible drives on a particular machine, including any optical drives or removable media devices, in the form "<drive letter>:\" (for example, "C:\"). On Unix, it returns the paths of all filesystem mount points mounted on a particular machine (for example, "/home/user", "/media/usb").
