You could switch to that drive and get a "dir" under shell(); the first line
says "Volume in drive <letter> is <name>", and you can parse it from that.

Something like this:

on mouseUp
 answer GetCDName("D:")
end mouseUp

function GetCDName pLetter
  set the hideConsoleWindows to true
  put shell(pLetter & " & dir") into temp
  return last word of line 1 of temp
end GetCDName
