You could use:

<url: 
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePython/2.2/PyWin32/win32api__
GetVolumeInformation_meth.html>

which will require:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/

Or you can use this:

http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms685899.aspx

with this:

http://docs.python.org/dev/lib/module-ctypes.html

which is built in to python 2.5
