MOF Reference

[Description("The Slot class represents Connectors into which Packages are inserted. For example, a PhysicalPackage that is a DiskDrive may be inserted into an SCA 'Slot'. As another example, a Card (subclass of PhysicalPackage) may be inserted into a 16-, 32-, or 64-bit expansion 'Slot' on a HostingBoard. PCI or PCMCIA Type III Slots are examples of the latter."): ToSubClass, AMENDMENT, LOCALE(1033)]

WMI is a huge subject, so therefore it is practically impossible to provide a comprehensive example program that covers anything. However, the book “Network programming in .NET” (Buy at Amazon UK) (Buy at Amazon US) covers a much wider scope of WMI, and explains how to leverage it to access the bounty of information held within this vast, yet simple object model.
