Answer 1

[Just combining the comments into an answer and added a bit]

I also was looking to use the Get-Disk command on an Azure VM Server 2008 R2, I installed PowerShell 3.0 and Get-Disk was still not available, and then googled to this page.

From this Scripting Guy blog link it mentions that

Note The version of Windows PowerShell 3.0 for Windows 7 does not contain the Storage module at this time, so Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012 is a requirement.

So if your looking to use Get-Disk on Windows Server 2008 R2, you cant.

The same Scripting Guy link also provides the relevant DiskPart commands that can be used instead.

From an elevated shell:

    DiskPart.exe
    List disk
    Select disk 1—disk 1 being the USB drive
    Clean
    Create partition primary
    Select partition 1—partition 1 being the new partition
    Active
    Format FS=NTFS

Answer 2

Depending on your use case, note that you can also get information on the disk in powershell without using a cmdlet, using the Win32_Volume class For example, you could do the following to change the drive letter:

$drive = gwmi win32_volume -Filter "DriveLetter = 'F:'"
$drive.DriveLetter = "D:"
$drive.Put()
