Solution 1

You can't.
Security will not allow you any access to the client hardware - you can't even tell if he had a HDD!

Solution 2

You can use these lines below for I.E, but client should give permission to use ActiveX objects otherwise you will get an error.

var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a = fso.CreateFolder("c:\\aa");
