Gets one or more disks visible to the operating system.
Note
This cmdlet returns physical disk objects like basic disks and partitioned drive partitions. Dynamic disks can span multiple pieces of physical media, so they will not be returned by Get-Disk. For more information, see Basic and Dynamic Disks.

Description
The Get-Disk cmdlet gets one or more Disk objects visible to the operating system, or optionally a filtered list.
Examples Example 1: Get all disksPS C:\>Get-Disk
This example gets all disks visible to the operating system.
Example 2: Get a disk by disk numberPS C:\>Get-Disk -Number 6
This example gets disk 6.
Example 3: Get all USB disksPS C:\>Get-Disk | Where-Object -FilterScript {$_.Bustype -Eq "USB"}
This example gets all disks attached via the USB bus by piping the output of Get-Disk to the Where-Object cmdlet, and filtering by the USB value of the Bustype property.
Example 4: Get the iSCSI sessions for all iSCSI disksPS C:\>Get-Disk | Where-Object -FilterScript {$_.BusType -Eq "iSCSI"} |
Get-IscsiSession | Format-Table
This example gets all disks attached via the iSCSI bus by piping the output of Get-Disk to the Where-Object cmdlet, and filtering by the iSCSI value of the Bustype property. It then passes the Disk objects in the pipeline to the Get-IscsiSession cmdlet, which gets the associated iSCSI sessions, and then pipes the output to the Format-Table cmdlet for simplified display.
Parameters -AsJobRuns the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
Type: SwitchParameter Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False -CimSessionRuns the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
Type: CimSession[] Aliases: Session Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False -FriendlyNameGets the disk with the specified friendly name. Enter a friendly name, or use wildcard characters to enter a name pattern.
Type: String[] Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False -iSCSIConnectionAccepts an iSCSIConnection object as input. The iSCSI Connection CIM object is exposed by the Get-IscsiConnection cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -iSCSISessionAccepts an iSCSISession object as input. The iSCSI Session CIM object is exposed by the Get-IscsiSession cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -NumberSpecifies the disk number for which to get the associated Disk object.
Type: UInt32[] Aliases: DeviceId Position: 0 Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -PartitionAccepts a Partition object as input. The Partition CIM object is exposed by the Get-Partition cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -PathContains valid path information.
Type: String[] Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -SerialNumberSpecifies an array of serial numbers associated with disks that this cmdlet gets.
Type: String[] Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False -StorageJobSpecifies a storage job object that is associated with disks that this cmdlet gets. To obtain a storage job, use the Get-StorageJob cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -StorageNode Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -StorageSubSystemSpecifies the storage subsystem from which this cmdlet gets disks. To obtain a StorageSubsystem object, use the Get-StorageSubSystem cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False -ThrottleLimitSpecifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0
is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Gets only the disks with the specified IDs. Type one or more IDs (separated by commas).
Type: String[] Aliases: Id Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False -VirtualDiskAccepts a VirtualDisk object as input. The Virtual Disk CIM object is exposed by the Get-VirtualDisk cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance Position: Named Default value: None Required: False Accept pipeline input: True Accept wildcard characters: False InputsYou can pipe an iSCSIConnection object to the iSCSIConnection parameter.
You can pipe an iSCSISession object to the iSCSISession parameter.
You can pipe a Partition object to the Partition parameter.
You can pipe a VirtualDisk object to the VirtualDisk parameter.
OutputsThis cmdlet outputs one or more objects representing disks.
