DriveInfo.IsReady Property

Definition

Gets a value that indicates whether a drive is ready.

public:
 property bool IsReady { bool get(); };
public bool IsReady { get; }
member this.IsReady : bool
Public ReadOnly Property IsReady As Boolean

Property Value

true if the drive is ready; false if the drive is not ready.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the DriveInfo class to display information about all of the drives on the current system.

using System;
using System.IO;

class Test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        DriveInfo[] allDrives = DriveInfo.GetDrives();

        foreach (DriveInfo d in allDrives)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Drive {0}", d.Name);
            Console.WriteLine("  Drive type: {0}", d.DriveType);
            if (d.IsReady == true)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("  Volume label: {0}", d.VolumeLabel);
                Console.WriteLine("  File system: {0}", d.DriveFormat);
                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Available space to current user:{0, 15} bytes",
                    d.AvailableFreeSpace);

                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Total available space:          {0, 15} bytes",
                    d.TotalFreeSpace);

                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Total size of drive:            {0, 15} bytes ",
                    d.TotalSize);
            }
        }
    }
}

Remarks

IsReady indicates whether a drive is ready. For example, it indicates whether a CD is in a CD drive or whether a removable storage device is ready for read/write operations. If you do not test whether a drive is ready, and it is not ready, querying the drive using DriveInfo will raise an IOException.

Do not rely on IsReady to avoid catching exceptions from other members such as TotalSize, TotalFreeSpace, and DriveFormat. Between the time that your code checks IsReady and then accesses one of the other properties (even if the access occurs immediately after the check), a drive may have been disconnected or a disk may have been removed.
