b.       You cannot convert drives with volumes that use an allocation unit size greater than 512 bytes.

c.        A boot partition or system partition on a basic disk cannot be extended into a striped or spanned volume, even if you convert the disk to a dynamic disk.

b.       System partition contains the operating system files

c.        System partition is the active partition

Best Answer

Choose the letter that corresponds to the best answer. More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.

1.       Which of the following resiliency options provides the most protection to a storage space?

  1. Simple
  2. Two-way mirror
  3. Three-way mirror
  4. Parity

2.       In Windows 8.1, there are four volume types to choose from. If the goal is to take advantage of dynamic disk features, protect the computer against single disk failure and the loss of storage space is not a major concern, which volume type would best fit the need?

a.       Striped volume

b.       Mirrored volume

c.        Spanned volume

d.       Simple volume

3.       Windows 8.1 supports FAT, FAT32, exFAT, and NTFS file systems. Which of the following best reflects a viable reason to use a FAT file system instead of NTFS?

a.       The need to share files over the network

b.       The need to create partitions up to 32 GB in size

c.        The need to use diagnostic utilities that only run on FAT systems.

d.       To support a multi-boot system with a non-Windows operating system

4.       A user would like to perform basic disk maintenance on their computer. Of the tools available, which is likely to cause the most damage if used in the hands of a novice?

a.       Disk Management console

b.       Disk Cleanup

c.        Chkdsk.exe

d.       Diskpart.exe

5.       A user indicates they would like to convert their basic disk to a dynamic disk to take advantage of the simple, striped, spanned, and volume mirror capabilities. Of the disks listed, which is most likely to support the conversion from basic to dynamic with the least amount of administrative effort?

a.       1 MB free space at end of disk, non-multi-boot system, allocation unit size 512.

b.       1 MB free space at end of disk, non-multi-boot system, allocation unit size > 512

c.        5 MB free space at end of disk, multi-boot system, allocation unit size 512

d.       5 MB free space at end of disk, multi-boot system, allocation unit size > 512

6.       In Windows 8.1, Storage Spaces uses unallocated space to create storage pools. While creating a new storage pool, the option to select the type of resiliency must be chosen. If you have five hard disks in the pool, what resiliency type would provide the best choice in regard to protecting against disk failure?

a.       Simple

b.       Two-way mirror

c.        Three-way mirror

d.       Parity

Build a List

1.       Order the steps to create a storage pool.

 

2.       In order of first to last, specify the correct order of steps to convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk.

3.       Specify the correct order of steps to create a spanned or striped volume.

          

4.       Specify the correct order of steps to create a volume.

Business Case Scenarios

Scenario 20-1: Creating Volumes on Dynamic Disks

           Maria has 3 hard disks on her computer. Using the Disk Management tool, she created a striped volume. What are advantages and disadvantages of her choice of volume type?

Scenario 20-2: Converting Disk Partition Styles

           Elliot, the junior administrator for the company, is currently reviewing a Windows 8.1 x86 system. After opening Disk Management and right-clicking the disk status column in the Graphical view, he notices the context menu contains the Convert to GTP Disk menu item. What does this mean and what are the implications of performing the conversion?
