Following on from last time we will extend our script to pull the information for logical drives.

When we get the data for the partitions (line 7) we now put that into a foreach loop. The name, description and if its a primary partition are dumped. I’m using a string to write it because we will get a formatting error if we try to use format-list with two different objects in the same script.
A query to get the associators of the partition (as long as its a logical drive) is created and run. The results from that are displayed using the calculated fields we have seen earlier.
That concludes our look at getting information about disks. Next we’ll look at the methods these WMI classes make available – in other words what can we do with them
