System events. Get notified when a new Driveroot is available

My program would need to detect when a new drive root is available.

When a user mounts a MSB location to a drive letter, or attaches an USB disk to his PC (mostly windows)

Is this possible? I could check every x seconds. But that is really bad coding, stops PC from sleeping and needlessly consumes resources.

Is it possible to get an event for this from Java?
