    @Dnyaneshwar Surywanshi - Thanks for reaching out.

    If your VM runs in Azure, Get-AzDisk would retrieve information about the underlying disk.

    Here is the doc info for that- Get-AzDisk PowerShell Script

    @Dnyaneshwar Surywanshi - Thanks for providing more details.

    If you would like to run this from your local server Machine and If you are using a modern Windows system then you could try the below commands :

    Get-PhysicalDisk,

    Get-Disk

    Get-Partition

    depending on the specific properties you are looking for. WMI is the older way of doing it, but it's more compatible with older systems and still works with modern ones.

    Drive letters are associated with partitions, not physical disks so you can try using Get-Partition for that.

    If you're looking for properties associated with the physical disk, you can try using Get-PhysicalDisk for that.
