if ($todhome.tod_disk_type -match $todhome.actual_disk_type)

output for compare-object

PS C:\Windows\system32> $a
STANDARD
STANDARD
STANDARD

PS C:\Windows\system32> $b
STANDARD
STANDARD
STANDARD

PS C:\Windows\system32> Compare-Object $a $b

PS C:\Windows\system32>

CodePudding user response：

You can use Compare-Object to compare two sequences:

# define two string arrays with the same values
$a = -split 'STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD'
$b = -split 'STANDARD STANDARD STANDARD'

# Use Compare-Object to find any differences
$diff = Compare-Object $a $b

if($diff){
  # differences were found 
}
