NAME
Get-StorageFirmwareInformation
SYNOPSIS
Gets information about firmware on a storage object.SYNTAX
Get-StorageFirmwareInformation [-FriendlyName]
[[-CimSession ] [-ThrottleLimit ] ] Get-StorageFirmwareInformation [-CimSession
[] [-ThrottleLimit ] -UniqueId ] Get-StorageFirmwareInformation [-CimSession
] [-ThrottleLimit ] [ ] DESCRIPTION
The Get-StorageFirmwareInformation cmdlet gets information about firmware on storage objects. On Non-Volatile
Memory Express (NVMe) devices, it lists the number of firmware slots, the active firmware image, and slots that are writeable.PARAMETERS
-CimSession [
Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -FriendlyName
Required? true Position? 1 Default value none Accept pipeline input? true(ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? false-ThrottleLimit [
Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -UniqueId
Specifies an ID used to uniquely identify a Disk object in the system. The ID persists through restarts. Required? true Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? true(ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? falseThis cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.

OUTPUTS
Boolean, UInt8, UInt8[], Boolean[], String[], String This cmdlet returns the following firmware information for a storage object:-- SupportsUpdate. Indicates whether the device is capable of a Windows-compliant firmware update process.
-- NumberOfSlots. The number of firmware slots the device has.
-- ActiveSlotId. Identifies the slot id that corresponds to the slot containing the currently active firmware
image.-- SlotId[] - Array listing all slot IDs.
-- IsSlotWritable[]. Indicates if a firmware image can be downloaded to the slot represented by the ID in the
SlotId[] array at the corresponding index.-- FirmwareVersionInSlot[]. Array showing the firmware revision in each slot.
-- Extended Status. Error information from the storage provider.
NOTES
This cmdlet is currently limited to use on PhysicalDisk objects.Example 1: Get firmware information for physical disks
PS C:\>Get-PhysicalDisk | Get-StorageFirmwareInformation
This command uses the Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet to get all physical disks in the system, and uses the pipeline
operator to pass them to Get-StorageFirmwareInformation to get the firmware information for each disk.
