If you want more, you need to create three primary partitions and one extended partition.

The MBR scheme allows the creation of a maximum of four primary partitions.

GPT-The GPT is a modern partitioning scheme that is more resilient and reliable and does not suffer from the limitations of the MBR scheme.

MBR-The MBR is an old-fashioned partitioning scheme that has a limit of a maximum of four primary partitions and a maximum supported disk size of 2 TB.

Let me briefly explain these partition schemes. When you attach a new disk in Windows and open the disk management utility, it asks you to initialize the disk with either the master boot record (MBR) or the globally unique identifier partition table (GPT) partition style. The disk partitioning scheme defines how the boot structure and data are handled by the disk. I will not be held responsible for any data loss incurred due to an incorrect command. It is highly recommended that you back up your important data before running these commands. The commands in this series deal with various disk management activities, such as partitioning, formatting, converting, resizing, etc., which could cause permanent data loss.

In this article, I will try to cover most of the disk and storage management tasks that an administrator might need to perform-all with the help of Windows PowerShell.
