Here is a cool Powershell command that will find a removable drive, quick format the drive, then name the drive.
This command is special because it searches for the drive name versus the drive letter. Sometimes drive letters change; this command will ensure that you are always deleting the correct drives data.
Powershell Command:
Get-Volume | Where-Object { ($_.FileSystemLabel-like “Test*”)-and($_.DriveType-eq “Removable”) } | ForEach-Object { Format-Volume -DriveLetter $_.DriveLetter -NewFileSystemLabel “Test2” -confirm:$false }
Test* will find any removable drive that starts with Test
Example: Test, Test1, Test54, TestABC, etc
-You can search for any naming convention you already have.
The current command will name the formatted drive Test2.
-You can change it to whatever you’d like.
