You need to use VolumeLabel property to get the Name of the Drive

Try This:

       var divesList = System.IO.DriveInfo.GetDrives()
                            .Where(d => d.DriveType == System.IO.DriveType.Fixed).ToList();


        Dictionary<string, string> dictDrives = new Dictionary<string, string>();

        foreach(var item in divesList)
        {
            dictDrives.Add(item.Name, item.Name + " " + item.VolumeLabel);
        }
        cbbFolder.DataSource = new BindingSource(dictDrives, null);
        cbbFolder.DisplayMember = "Value";
