Is there a way to determine the type and size of blank inserted burnable media from Windows command prompt / batch file?
I know with hard disk / SSD I can use:
WMIC logicaldisk get deviceid, size, freespace
and extract information I need. But for optical media, I can't seem to find anything that would relate to what capacity or type of media is inserted.
I thought that DriveType and MediaType fields might be a way, but it doesn't seem so specific.
DriveType = 3 and MediaType = 12 for hard drive or SSD
DriveType = 5 and MediaType = 11 for optical media regardless of media type (CD, DVD, Blu-Ray /M-Disc 25, 50, 100GB).
Freespace and Size fields are completely blank for optical media
From command line, if I switch to the drive letter with the burnable media (i.e. G: <ENTER>), it just gives error Incorrect function.
From Windows Explorer I can do a right click - properties of the optical drive, and shows me free space. But I can't seem to find a way directly from the command line.
Anyone know if there is another way?
Thanks.
