How to convert DriveInfo[] to List<string> C#

Question

hi I want to convert DriveInfo type list to string type list with using loop.In my code I am trying to use ToList() but it's not exist. actually I want all the paths of logical drives in string list without using loop. I know manually it's possible to use loop but I want to do this with direct function. Thank.

here's my code

DriveInfo[] Drive_info = DriveInfo.GetDrives();

List<string> list = Drive_info.ToList<string>();

Try this code:

DriveInfo[] Drive_info = DriveInfo.GetDrives();

List<string> list = Drive_info.Select(x => x.RootDirectory.FullName).ToList();

If I'm not wrong it takes path to all drives. Using select you can make new IEnumerable from property you choose. Using ToList() will convert to list.
