🖥️ Tools & Resources You’ll Need:

Windows Operating System (any version with Disk Management)

Testout Network+ Lab 15.1 for practice and exam prep

Virtual Machine or Dedicated PC to practice without affecting important data

Disk Management (built into Windows)

A test disk (empty or virtual) for volume creation

💡 Quick Tips:

When creating volumes, make sure your disk is unallocated before starting.

A simple volume is a single disk partition with a single file system.

NTFS is the most common file system for Windows volumes, but you may use exFAT or FAT32 for compatibility with other operating systems.

If you see a "Dynamic Disk" message, it means your disk is configured for more advanced configurations like RAID.

🚨 Troubleshooting Tips:

If the volume doesn’t appear after creation, ensure you assigned the drive letter properly in Disk Management.

If Disk Management is slow or unresponsive, check if the disk has any hardware issues or if there is not enough system resources.

If you're working on a virtual machine, ensure that the disk space is properly allocated to the virtual machine before attempting to create a volume.
