DiskInfoToolkit

A toolkit for Storage Device informations. Primarily used for reading S.M.A.R.T. data from storage devices.

Project overview

Project	.NET Version[s]
DiskInfoToolkit This library reads detailed information from various types of storage devices - including NVMe, SSD, HDD and USB drives. It provides a high level API to read device data, SMART attributes, Partitions and other hardware details directly from the system.	.NET Framework 4.7.2 & 4.8.1 .NET Standard 2.0 .NET 8, 9 and 10
ConsoleOutputTest Example Application to show how some library functionality can be used.	.NET 8
DiskInfoViewer Visualization of detected storage devices on your system. This supports adding / removing storage devices and updates data. UI is built using Avalonia UI.	.NET 8

What platforms are supported ?

For the moment we only support Windows.
We are looking into supporting Linux later on.

Developer information

Integrate the library in your own application

Sample code

static class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        //You can enable logging and set level, if you need logging output
        Logger.Instance.IsEnabled = true;
        Logger.Instance.LogLevel = LogLevel.Trace;

        //Reload storage devices
        StorageManager.ReloadStorages();

        //Go through all devices
        foreach (var storage in StorageManager.Storages)
        {
            //Output Model of storage device
            Console.WriteLine($"Detected storage device '{storage.Model}'.");
        }

        //Register change event
        StorageManager.StoragesChanged += DevicesChanged;

        var secondsToWait = 10;

        //Wait for specified amount of time and listen to device changes
        Console.WriteLine($"Waiting {secondsToWait} seconds for device changes.");
        Thread.Sleep(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(secondsToWait));

        //Unregister change event
        StorageManager.StoragesChanged -= DevicesChanged;

        //Save log file to current directory, if you enabled logging output
        Logger.Instance.SaveToFile("Log.txt", false);

        //All done
        Console.WriteLine("Press enter to exit...");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

    static void DevicesChanged(StoragesChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        //Devices have changed, log event information
        Console.WriteLine($"Eventhandler {nameof(StorageManager.StoragesChanged)} - {e.StorageChangeIdentifier} => {e.Storage.Model}.");

        //Simple output
        switch (e.StorageChangeIdentifier)
        {
            case StorageChangeIdentifier.Added:
                Console.WriteLine($"Added: '{e.Storage.Model}'");
                break;
            case StorageChangeIdentifier.Removed:
                Console.WriteLine($"Removed: '{e.Storage.Model}'");
                break;
        }
    }
}
