Lab 7-1: Managing Local Storage and Virtual Hard Disks

What could be the primary reason to implement Resilient File System (ReFS) on Windows Server 2019 instead of a New Technology File System (NTFS)?

It can detect data corruption when used with Storage Spaces

You execute the following command in PowerShell:

Set-Disk -Number 3 -IsReadOnly $false

What would be the output of this command?

Turns off the Read-only attribute on Disk number 3

You have a server with multiple disks but with no RAID configured. You want to mirror the C drive with D drive. Which of the following RAID should you configure?

RAID 1

RAID 0: This is known as striping. It splits data across multiple disks, which can improve performance. However, it offers no redundancy, so if one disk fails, all data is lost.

RAID 5: This level uses striping with parity. Data and parity (error checking) information are distributed across three or more disks. It provides good performance and fault tolerance, as the system can recover data if one disk fails.

RAID 5+1: This is a combination of RAID 5 and RAID 1. It involves mirroring a RAID 5 array, providing both high performance and high redundancy. It's also known as RAID 51.

Which type of RAID provides fault tolerance through the use of parity information spread across the member disk volumes?

RAID 5

Identify the output of the following PowerShell command:

Get-VHD c:\engineering.vhd

Verifies the system properties of engineering.vhd
