Gets the advanced properties on a storage device.





SYNTAX

Get-StorageAdvancedProperty -PhysicalDisk <CimInstance> [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The Get-StorageAdvancedProperty cmdlet gets the advanced properties of a storage device. For example, Get-PhysicalDisk gets the most commonly used

attributes of a physical disk such as CanPool. To get the cache (IsDeviceCacheEnabled) and power protection (IsPowerProtected) settings for a physical

disk, you can pass a PhysicalDisk object to the Get-StorageAdvancedProperty cmdlet.





PARAMETERS

-PhysicalDisk <CimInstance>

Specifies an array of physical disk objects.



Required? true

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? true (ByValue)

Accept wildcard characters? false



<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,

ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,

OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see

INPUTS











OUTPUTS

PhysicalDiskAdvancedProperties



The cmdlet gets the advanced properties for PhysicalDisk objects: IsPowerProtected and IsDeviceCacheEnabled.





Example 1: Get advanced storage properties of a physical disk



PS C:\\>Get-PhysicalDisk | Get-StorageAdvancedProperty

FriendlyName SerialNumber IsPowerProtected IsDeviceCacheEnabled

------------ ------------ ---------------- --------------------

MTFDWSC128MAM-1J1 1247091D111W True False

WDC WD10EZWC-60ZF5A0 WD-WCC1S1822719 True False

WDC WD10EZWC-60ZF5A0 WD-WCC1S1634655 True False



This command uses the Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet to get all physical disks, and uses the pipeline operator to pass them to Get-StorageAdvancedProperty to

get the advanced storage properties IsPowerProtected and IsDeviceCacheEnabled for the physical disks.





Example 2: Get advanced storage properties for the first physical disk in an array



PS C:\\>Get-StorageAdvancedProperty -PhysicalDisk (Get-PhysicalDisk)[0]

FriendlyName SerialNumber IsPowerProtected IsDeviceCacheEnabled

------------ ------------ ---------------- --------------------

MTFDWSC128MAM-1J1 1247091D111W True False



This command gets the advanced storage properties IsPowerProtected and IsDeviceCacheEnabled for the first PhysicalDisk object in the array of returned

physical disks.
