There is alot of questions with this wording “You need to create 3-TB virtual hard disk (VHD) on Server1.”
Unless I misunderstand it should be VHDX, since VHD only support up to 2TB.
2nd, if any agree that server manager can be used to create a 3TB VHDX faster than any of the other options, please tell how.

It can be done in Server Manager if there are no available disks. Go to File and Storage Services, Click the Disk option in the list on the left.

In either the Disks or the Volumes pane, right click and select New Volume, In the wizard click next, in this step in the Wizard you can select the server and under the disks pane is a link saying Open the Create a VHD wizard – BUT this is only there if there are no available physical disks.

So I guess it would have to be Computer Management becuase from there you can get to Disk Management and create a VHD.
