Thank you all for the informations.

I finally made a class that searches the IORegistry and gets continously updated through the add / remove notifications.
In addition this class registers the NSWorkspace Notifications for mount / unmount volumes.
It merges these informations into one array.
So the needed information is available with minimal delay.

Well, there's nothing to stop you from using BSD level APIs from either of these from Cocoa or CF. However, for a Cocoa app, the following might be considered a better match.


1. prefix the BSD name with "/dev/"

2. get array of local volumes using -[NSWorkspace mountedLocalVolumePaths]

3. iterate array calling statfs on each, stopping when you get one
   f_mntfromname field matches the value from step 1
