Oracle analog to xp_fixeddrives

Hi Everyone!

I recently read an article about a SQL-Server stored procedure called 'xp_fixeddrives'. What it does is return a structure to the database user that contains relevant information about specific disks. I was wondering if anyone has ever seen, dreamed about, written, borrowed, bought or stolen a utility like this for Oracle. I know it's easier for SQL-Server because it's only gotta work on one platform, where Oracle is much broader, but I could sure imagine some usefulness around that sort of thing.

Curious,
Mike
