JSI Tip 5351. How can I display drive information from the Windows XP command-line?

When you use Help and Support to view information about the fsutil fsinfo command, you receive:

Fsutil: fsinfo Typically used by support professionals. Lists all drives, queries the drive type,               queries volume information, queries NTFS-specific volume information,               or queries file system statistics.Syntaxfsutil fsinfo [drives]fsutil fsinfo [drivetype] PathNamefsutil fsinfo [ntfsinfo] RootPathnamefsutil fsinfo [statistics] VolumePathnamefsutil fsinfo [volumeinfo] RootPathnameParametersdrives     Lists all drives in the computer. drivetype      Queries a drive and lists its type, for example CD-ROM drive. ntfsinfo      Lists NTFS specific volume information for the specified volume, such as the number of sectors,     total clusters, free clusters, and the start and end of the MFT Zone. statistics      Lists file system statistics for the specified volume, such as metadata, log file, and MFT reads and writes. volumeinfo     Lists information for the specified volume, such as the file system, and whether the volume supports     case-sensitive file names, unicode in file names, or disk quotas. PathName     Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon), mount point, or volume name. RootPathname     Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon) of the root drive. VolumePathname     Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon), mount point, or volume name.
