I did this, and the disk was seen as disabled. When I enabled it I got the
same device properties - 0 bytes used; 0 bytes; free; 0 bytes capacity.

Or were you asking for the driver details? If so they were -
Driver files - windows\system32\DRIVERS\disk.sys
windows\system32\drivers\partMgr.sys
Provider Microsoft Corporation
File Version 5.1.2600.2180(xpsp_sp2_rtm040803-2158)
