Java: Get Device/Drive Name on Windows

Question

I can get a list of drives plugged into a computer with File.listRoots(), but I only get the drive letter. How can I get the actual name of the drive (e.x. "Local Disk", "DVD RW Drive", etc.) as it's shown in Windows Explorer?

if you need extra info you can exec "wmic logicaldisk get" and parse it's output — aav, May 25 '11 at 22:56
