Enumerate Drives and Directories for .NET application

In the past I used the SQLDMO to get drive and directory information for a
target SQL Server. I do not want to use COM components in my .NET
application to accomplish this. What is the ".NET" way of doing this with
the assumption the SQL Server could be on a separate system than the one the
..NET application is running.
As you cannot be sure you have OS permissions to do this:
Run a profiler trace while doing this from your current app, or while EM is doing this, and pick up
the SQL procedures that are executed. Warning: Some of these are undocumented, use at your own risk.
