JavaScript / TypeScript Library for getting info about drives & disks.
import Disklist from "disklist";
const disks = Disklist.listDrivesSync();
console.log(disks.filter((disk) => disk.removable));
Would when run on a Windows machine result in: (With a USB Drive plugged in)
[
{
device: "\\\\.\\PHYSICALDRIVE1",
displayName: "WINDOWS10",
description: "USB Mass Storage Device",
size: 31264289280,
mountpoints: [{ path: "E:/" }],
raw: "\\\\.\\PHYSICALDRIVE1",
protected: false,
system: false,
removable: true,
fileSystem: "FAT32",
driveType: "USB Drive",
mounted: true,
serialNumber: "2a30d57d2e49d654229299c66f80e0e4",
},
];
And on MacOS (with the same drive plugged in) it would result in:
[
{
device: "/dev/disk8",
displayName: "WINDOWS10",
description: "USB Mass Storage Device",
size: 31266439168,
mountpoints: [],
raw: "/dev/disk8",
protected: false,
system: false,
removable: true,
fileSystem: "FAT32",
driveType: "USB Drive",
mounted: false,
serialNumber: "2a30d57d2e49d654229299c66f80e0e4",
},
];
