public:
 property long TotalSize { long get(); };

public long TotalSize { get; }

member this.TotalSize : int64

Public ReadOnly Property TotalSize As Long

Property Value

Int64

The total size of the drive, in bytes.

Exceptions

UnauthorizedAccessException

Access to the drive information is denied.

DriveNotFoundException

The drive is not mapped or does not exist.

IOException

An I/O error occurred (for example, a disk error or a drive was not ready).

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the DriveInfo class to display information about all of the drives on the current system.

using System;
using System.IO;

class Test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        DriveInfo[] allDrives = DriveInfo.GetDrives();

        foreach (DriveInfo d in allDrives)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Drive {0}", d.Name);
            Console.WriteLine("  Drive type: {0}", d.DriveType);
            if (d.IsReady == true)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("  Volume label: {0}", d.VolumeLabel);
                Console.WriteLine("  File system: {0}", d.DriveFormat);
                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Available space to current user:{0, 15} bytes",
                    d.AvailableFreeSpace);

                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Total available space:          {0, 15} bytes",
                    d.TotalFreeSpace);

                Console.WriteLine(
                    "  Total size of drive:            {0, 15} bytes ",
                    d.TotalSize);
            }
        }
    }
}
