The Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet gets a list of all PhysicalDisk objects visible across any available Storage Management Providers, or optionally a filtered list of disks.
PS C:\> Get-PhysicalDisk
FriendlyName CanPool OperationalStatus HealthStatus Usage Size
------------ -------- ----------------- ------------ ----- ----
PhysicalDisk4 False OK Healthy Data Store 25 GB
This example returns an array of all PhysicalDisk objects present in the computer. A storage management provider is required to manage physical disks.
PS C:\>Get-PhysicalDisk -CanPool $True
This example returns an array of PhysicalDisk objects that are available for adding to a storage pool (they are in a primordial pool).
Gets physical disks that are available for use in a storage pool.

The Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet returns objects that represent physical disks.
- When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
