VOL Command

Exports XML containing information about the current volume (a disk or share).  The shell renders the information with an appropriate icon and formatted overview.

XML and Screenshot

The XML contains information about a drive or volume.

<drive>
    <format>NTFS</format>
    <label />
    <name>C:\</name>
    <type>Fixed</type>
</drive>

The shell renders the information with an appropriate icon and summary.

Thoughts

• The results can be piped to commands that operate against drives or volumes, such as defraggers, anti-virus scanners, etc.
