in windows you can use WMI to get any information i need, So can run this script in java program to get relevant information, more information can be found on Microsoft or just search for "windows management Instrumentation"

I don't think you can detect that. At most you might be able to query the operating system for the maximum amount of available space and conclude it must be a DVD if that space is more than the maximum that will fit on a CD (640MB if memory serves).
