Default Disc Identifiers

Greetings,

How would one go about identifying a disc using Cocoa API calls?

To be more specific, I am trying to identify if a given drive is an iPod or not. I can't seem to find any calls that give me specific enough information (even disc format) that I could reliably filter out non-ipod results.

If worse comes to worse, I can just hope the user isn't dumb enough to pick something that's not an iPod, but that is kind of unnerving for me.

Perhaps a better move would be to search the root level and look for telltale directories (I.E- iPod_Control), but I'm not sure how reliably those show up if the iPod hasn't been used previously.

Any suggestions?
