Disk Utilities — CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) Practice Questions
Disk utilities are tools used to manage, repair, and optimize storage drives in Windows and other operating systems. The A+ Core 2 exam covers utilities such as Disk Management for creating and formatting partitions, chkdsk for scanning and repairing file system errors, Disk Cleanup for reclaiming wasted space, and Defragment and Optimize Drives for improving access times on mechanical hard disks. Technicians must know when to use each tool and understand that solid-state drives should not be defragmented. These skills are tested in scenarios involving disk errors, low disk space warnings, and drive preparation during OS installation.
