The Set-Disk cmdlet takes a Disk object or unique disk identifiers and a set of attributes, and updates the
physical disk on the system.PARAMETERS
-CimSession [
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such] as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local
computer. Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Guid [
Contains a globally unique ID (GUID). Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -IsOffline [
Specifies that the disk is offline. Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -IsReadOnly [
] Sets the disk to be read-only, or read-write (read-only = false). Note: If the disk is set to read-only, then
the disk must be set to read-only = false before using this cmdlet to set the PartitionStyle parameter.
Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Number
Specifies a disk number on which the cmdlet acts. Required? true Position? 1 Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-PartitionStyle [
Specifies the type of the partition. The acceptable values for this parameter are: MBR or GPT. The disk must] be initialized (such as using theInitialize-Disk cmdlet) and set to read-write (IsReadOnly $false) before this
cmdlet will work. The disk must be set to read-only = false before this cmdlet will work.
Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Path
Contains the device instance path. Required? true Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-Signature [
Contains the signature of the disk. Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -ThrottleLimit [
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShellr calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer. 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 noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? falseThis cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_Disk http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/desktop/hh830493.aspx The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.OUTPUTS
NoneEXAMPLE 1
PS C:\>Set-Disk -Number 5 -IsOffline $False
This example takes a disk that is offline and makes it online.EXAMPLE 2
PS C:\>Set-Disk -Number 5 -IsReadonly $False
This example takes a disk that is read-only and makes it writeable.
