PowerShell command output truncates decimal of float values

Question

I am using the following command to check space on remote server:

Get-WmiObject -Class win32_logicalDisk -ComputerName computer-name | Select Name,@{n="Free";e={[math]::trun
cate($_.freespace / 1GB)}}, @{n="Total Size";e={[math]::truncate($_.size / 1GB)}}

It outputs:

Name Free Total Size
---- ---- ----------
C:     13         59
D:      0          0

However, the actual space is: 10.5 free from 59.8. It's like it's using int, not float. Anyone know how can I change it in order to show the real float values?

Answer 1

Found it. It seems I need to use abs instead of the truncate function.

Get-WmiObject -Class win32_logicalDisk -ComputerName computer-name | Select Name,@{n="Free";e={[math]::abs(
$_.freespace / 1GB)}}, @{n="Total Size";e={[math]::abs($_.size / 1GB)}}

Answer 2

or Get-WmiObject -Class win32_logicalDisk -ComputerName computer-name | Select Name,@{n="Free";e={[($.freespace / 1GB) -as [int]}}, @{n="Total Size";e={$.size / 1GB -as [int])}}
