PowerShell: Drive

A PowerShell drive is an abstraction for a data store where the stored data can be accessed in a file system like manner. Two prominent examples of such stores are file systems and the registry.
A drive contains two generic types of objects: items and item properties.
In the file system provider, an item is a file or a directory.
The command noun used for working with drives is psDrive.

Location

Some drives (such as those whose providers are Registry or Filesystem) have a current location.
This location is shown, for example, in the property CurrentLocation with the cmdlet get-psDrive -psProvider fileSystem.
See also the command noun location.

Cmdlets

The cmdlet that allows to see the currently available drives is get-psDrive.
A new drive is created with new-psDrive.
Generic cmdlets to work with a drive's content are
The location (which is the PowerShell lingo for path) within (or of) a drive is (not very surprisingly) set with set-location.

TODO

The WSMan drive (which seems to be related to the WinRM service). 
PS C:\> ls wsman:\localhost
