Question 1

You are going to install Windows 10. On which type of partition should you install the boot files?

Answer 1

Primary

Question 2

Dynamic partition

Answer 2

Dynamic partitions can be simple, spanned, or striped. A dynamic disk that is partitioned as simple is the same as a basic partition, but it has the ability to be spanned or striped in the future. A spanned partition allows you to combine the storage of several disks into a single volume, appearing as one drive letter in the operating system. Spanning does not provide fault tolerance. Striping writes the data across several drives simultaneously, dramatically improving file I/O speeds. In round numbers, the I/O speed for striped volumes can be expressed as 1/N, where N is the number of drives. As with spanning, there is no fault tolerance.

Question 3

GPT

Answer 3

GPT stands for GUID Partition Table and is replacing MBR. MBR supports up to four primary partitions and has a disk size limitation of 2 TB. GPT requires a UEFI motherboard.

Question 4

Which feature of the Windows operating system helps reduce repetitive traffic over a WAN?

Answer 4

BranchCache helps reduce repetitive traffic over a WAN. Users in remote offices who would normally access a common file from a central repository can cause a high amount of expensive WAN traffic. With BranchCache, the file can be cached at the remote office, drastically reducing the WAN bandwidth. An example of an implementation of BranchCache is a new training video for thousands of users in multiple remote offices. BranchCache is an enterprise feature, and only available in Windows Server and the Enterprise/Education editions of Windows 10.
