Re: Howto Detect DVD-Drive?
CD drive detection sample is half-useful. Of course, one can enumerate all CD/DVD drives, but the problem is how to get their capabilities. SCSI_PASSRTROUGH (used in the sample) in Win2K+ only works for admin login and should not be considered for mass software for that reason.

I think you are wrong!
See documentation of IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH:
