         LogMessage("Drive " + d.Name);
        LogMessage(" File type: " + d.DriveType);
        if d.IsReady == true then    
            LOGMESSAGE(" is READY");
            logmessage(" Volume label:" + d.VolumeLabel);
            logmessage(" File System:" + d.DriveFormat);
            logmessage(" Available Space:" + d.AvaIlableFreeSpace);
            logmessage(" Total Available Space:" + d.TotalFreeSpace);
            logmessage(" Total size of drive:" + d.TotalSize);
        Endif;
