A company’s server administration team would like to take advantage of the newest file systems available with
Windows Server 2012 R2. The team needs a file system capable of managing extremely large data drives that
can auto-detect data corruption and automatically perform needed repairs without taking a volume offline.
Which file system should the server administration team choose?
A.
NFS
B.
DFS
C.
NTFS
D.
ReFS
Explanation:
The ReFS (Resilient File System) is capable of managing extremely large data drives (1 YB Yottabyte), can
auto-detect data corruption, and automatically perform needed repairs without taking the volume offline.
Quick Tip: The command fsutil fsinfo volumeinfo x: will display the volume file system. ReFS is only intended
for data drives and not compatible with all Windows Server 2012 R2 file system technologies, however it is
compatible with the new Storage Spaces.
