You're purchasing Windows 11 laptops for the sales representatives in your company. The sales representatives travel frequently, and their laptops are often dropped or go through baggage handling at airports. You have the option to purchase the new Windows 11 laptops with either a 1 TB hard drive and a 128 GB solid state drive or with a 512 GB solid state drive. SOLUTION: You purchase the Windows 10 laptops with the 1 TB hard drive and a 128 GB solid state drive. Does this solution BEST meet the sales representatives needs?

NO In this case, the sales representatives need storage that's resistant to exacting situations (such as dropping a laptop). They also need longer battery life to be able to work in airports and other locations where they rely on the battery instead of an AC connection. The 512 GB solid state drive is the best solution to meet the sales representatives' needs.

To meet the needs of the engineers in your company, you have purchased several Windows 11 computers with an internal 512-GB solid state drive. However, many of the engineers would like to have an additional external hard drive to store the larger CAD/CAM files they will be creating. You have purchase several 12-TB external hard drives for the engineers and would like to create three volumes on these external hard drives: Personal Data: 3 TB CAD Files: 8 TB Project Files: 1 TB When you initialized the disks, you choose the MBR (Master Boot Record) partition style for the new external hard drives. Will this partition style meet your needs?

NO The Master Boot Record (MBR) partition style doesn't support volumes larger than 2 TB. Therefore, you wouldn't be able to create the volumes for Personal Data (3 TB) and CAD Files (8 TB). Since you have already initialized the disks using MBR, you will need to convert the disks to GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition style, which supports volumes larger than 2 TB.

What are the types of storage pool configurations?

simple- designed to increase performance but provides no data redundancy mirror- designed to increase performance and protect data from drive failure by replicating the data to multiple disks. parity- designed to provide data redundancy and is comparable to a RAID 5 configuration. dual parity- a dual parity storage space writes your data with parity information on 2 disks, helping to protect you from two disk failures. It requires at least 5 physical disks in the pool.

What are the differences between the Windows Storage Spaces feature and storage pools?

storage spaces- require minimum of 2 drives in addition to the existing drive on which windows is installed. storage pool- collection of disks, the aggregate of these disks creates one large storage space or pool.

You've purchased a Windows Server 2022 computer with four basic internal hard drives (Disk 0 through Disk 3). Disk 0 contains the Windows Server 2022 operating system (OS), which you want to keep reserved for that OS and all the related system files. Each of the remaining hard drives provide 5 TB of storage space. You decide to use the Storage Space feature to create a storage pool for Disks 1-3 that includes three virtual disks with the following requirements: Virtual Disk A All the files that are stored on the drives must be associated with information to protect them against any single drive failure. Will be used for workloads, such as archive or backup. Virtual Disk B All the files stored on the drives must have a backup file automatically created. If one disk drive in the pool fails, the file copies are available from one of the other two disk drives. If one disk drive in the pool fails, access to backup files must be as quick as possible. Virtual Disk C A file stored on the drives must be split evenly between the disk drives. The virtual drive is used for storing temporary company data. From the list of Storage Space resiliency types on the left, select the type that you need for e

virtual disk A- Parity space virtual disk B- mirror space(2 way) virtual disk C- simple space Virtual Disk A needs to be configured with a parity space resiliency type to meet the listed requirements. Parity space stores the file with parity information that helps to protect against any single drive failure. This is often used for workloads, such as an archive or backup. Virtual Disk B needs to be configured with a mirror space resiliency type and as a two-way mirror (a three-way mirror requires five hard drives and makes three copies of your data). This resiliency type writes two copies of your data automatically, and the data is available if one disk drive in the pool fails. This means that backup file access is much quicker than if you used parity space.

Which command would you use to copy all files and subdirectories in a directory, including empty subdirectories? copy /n xcopy /s xcopy /e copy /v

xcopy /e

Several of your programmers have been running out of hard disk space. To solve this issue, you have purchased and installed an additional 10 TB Solid-state drive (SSD) in each of the required computers. The programmers have requested that two volumes be created on the new drive as follows: Personal Data: 2 TB Programming Code: 8 TB While you were testing the newly installed drives, you initialized them using the GPT (GUID Partition Table) partition style. Does this partition style meet the programmer's needs?

yes

You've purchased a Windows Server 2022 computer with two basic internal hard drives (Disk 0 and Disk 1). Disk 0 contains a C: volume with the Windows Server 2022 operating system. You decide that you want to increase the C: volume's capacity by taking advantage of some unallocated space on Disk 1. SOLUTION: You use the Disk Management utility to convert Disk 0 and Disk 1 to dynamic hard drives, and then you allocate the additional space on Disk 1 to the C: volume. Does this solution meet your requirements?

yes

You're purchasing Windows 11 laptops for the sales representatives in your company. The sales representatives travel frequently, and their current laptops are often dropped or go through baggage handling at airports. You have the option to purchase the new Windows 11 laptops with either a 1 TB hard drive and a 128-GB solid state drive or a 512-GB solid state drive. SOLUTION: You purchase the Windows 10 laptops with the 512-GB solid state drive. Does this solution best meet the sales representatives needs?

yes SSDs use interconnected flash memory chips that retain the data even when there is no power flowing through them. They are often used in laptops because they're non-mechanical, require less power, are shock resistant, and have no moving parts. In this case, sales representatives need storage that is resistant to exacting situations (such as dropping a laptop). They also need longer battery life to be able to work in airports and other locations where they rely on the battery instead of an AC connection. The 512-GB solid state drive is the best solution to meet the sales representatives' needs.
