how to access hard disk raw data

[systemresized]

Hello all
good forum related to c++/c

Me developing Cross Platform File Explorer. This application can displays all the drives whether it is of FAT32 or ext2 or ext3 or NTFS file sys. drive. Use of this application is that when ur working on windows u can access the data from Linux without switching to Linux and then mount the drive.

Can anyone tell me how to access the information how many drives our hard disk have and are of what type.

Me developing this application on Linux platform using GNU c++

If u can tell me some link or idea from which i can read about how to complete my project me very thankful to all of u and this forum

When you are programming on a windows machine you can use the functions in standard input output library. I am sure that GNU/Linux must have something similar.
