Question 14: You have a desktop computer that runs Windows 8 Enterprise. You add three new 3-terabyte
disks. You need to create a new 9-terabyte volume.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose
two.)
A. From Disk Management, bring all disks offline.
B. From PowerShell, run the Add-PhysicalDisk cmdlet.
C. From PowerShell, run the New-VirtualDisk cmdlet.
D. From Disk Management, create a new spanned volume.
E. From Disk Management, convert all of the 3-terabyte disks to GPT.
F. From Diskpart, run the Convert MBR command.
Correct Answer: D,E
Explanation
B: GPT disks can grow to a very large size. The maximum partition (and disk) size is a function of the
operating system version. Windows XP and the original release of Windows Server 2003 have a limit
of 2TB per physical disk, including all partitions. For Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows XP x64
edition, and later versions, the maximum raw partition of 18 exabytes can be supported.
A: A spanned volume is a dynamic volume consisting of disk space on more than one physical disk. If
a simple volume is not a system volume or boot volume, you can extend it across additional disks to
create a spanned volume, or you can create a spanned volume in unallocated space on a dynamic
disk. You can make a spanned volume of GPT disks.
