- [Instructor] Windows PowerShell…is a command line shell that lets users,…generally, network administrators,…automate and configure management tasks.…One of those tasks is managing disks and disk storage.…You can use PowerShell to perform operations…on disks in ways that aren't available from tools,…like disk management and commands, like disk part.…If you want to follow along here,…insert at least two removable USB disks.…You'll need to open PowerShell, then,…with administrative privileges, once you're ready.…
I'll search for it from the taskbar,…right-click it in the results,…and choose Run as Administrator.…If you want to work with disks…in a PowerShell session,…you first need to know the numbers…associated with the disks on your computer.…One way to do that is to type the command Get-Disk…in a PowerShell session and press enter.…You can see here that I have several disks…installed on my computer.…Zero and one are system and primary partitions.…Disk four, three, and two…are all external removable drives.…
I'll write down the numbers for these drives…
