    A 15GB hard drive has been partitioned into one primary partition, with an extended partition containing three logical volumes.
    The system has a second SCSI drive, and you want to partition it as a single extended partition to be used by Windows Virtual memory management.
    What drive letter will the SCSI drive show in Explorer?

    A) F:

    B) H:

    C) E:

    D) G:

    Harry,

    How would you rate SCSI to SATA?

    Depends on intended use. For serious database work SCSI is still ahead because of the multi-tasking nature of the SCSI protocol. SATA2 is intended to take some of that on board, but there are still few of them about, and the jury is still out!

    Otherwise for ordinary home use the price of SATA vs SCSI means that SATA wins easily.

    Harry.

    [hide]Not entirely sure on this one again ... Is this the style of questioning that I'm likely to encounter in the Exam?

    I'm going to have a stab at

    Yes, it is. The Questions have to be read carefully as sometimes they aren't what they appear to be.
