Unlock the Power of Azure Disk Management with PowerShell! 🚀

Unlock the Power of Azure Disk Management with PowerShell! 🚀

Want to master your Azure disks? This PowerShell script lets you seamlessly connect to Azure, retrieve details for a specific disk, and list all disks in a resource group – including their LastOwnershipUpdateTime! 🛠️

🔑 What does the script do?

• Connects to Azure using secure device authentication.
• Fetches details for a specific disk, including ownership update time.
• Uses the Azure REST API to dig deeper into disk properties.
• Lists all disks in a resource group in a clean table format.

💻 Try it now! Copy the code below and take control of your Azure resources. Just replace $resourceGroupName and $diskName with your own values. Got questions? Drop a comment! 👇
