Linux – fdisk command in Windows

command linelinuxwindows

In Linux, there is a useful fdisk command.

Is there an analogue for this in Windows? Specifically, I need to use (something like) fdisk -l.

There is diskpart

[start] [run] diskpart list disk

enter image description here

Also, there is wmic diskdrive. You can use that from the command line, but you probably want to apply some filters to avoid ending up with way too much information.
