DESCRIPTION

The Get-Volume cmdlet will return a Volume object or a set of Volume objects that match the specified criteria.

Note: Dynamic volumes are supported only by the following cmdlets: Repair-Volume (chkdsk), Optimize-Volume (defrag), and Format-Volume (format) on basic disks and storage spaces.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Get all volumes

PS C:\>Get-Volume

This example returns all volumes on all partitions, on all disks.

Example 2: Get the volume for a particular drive letter

PS C:\>Get-Volume -DriveLetter C
DriveLetter         FileSystemLabel     FileSystem          HealthStatus              SizeRemaining                Size
-----------         ---------------     ----------          ------------              -------------                ----
C                                       NTFS                Healthy                        23.61 GB           465.42 GB

This example gets the Volume object for drive letter C.
