简化Powershell搜索脚本

Question

I have written the following script out to search 9 directories across my network. It functions as needed but is ungodly slow (i assume due to the amount of places its going). My question to you, as i am not very experienced with powershell, is there any way that something could be "streamlined" to speed up the end result? It seems pretty messy having all these sources.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

$source1 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source2 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source3 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source4 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source5 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source6 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source7 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source8 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
$source9 = "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"

Get-Childitem –Path $source, $Source2, $Source3, $Source4, $Source5, $Source6 , $Source7, $Source8, $Source9 -Include *SEARCHITEM* -Recurse -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

You can use Start-Job to spin up separate background processes to carry out the job against each $source :

$Sources = @(
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
    "\\Server_IP\d$\Folder\Err"
)
$Files = $Sources |ForEach-Object {
  Start-Job -ScriptBlock { 
    $args |Get-ChildItem -Filter *SEARCHITEM* -Recurse -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue 
  } -ArgumentList $_.FullName
} |Wait-Job |Receive-Job

$Files will now contain the relevant files from all the locations in $sources
