DRAG DROP
You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
You add a new internal SAS disk to Server1.
You need to ensure that the new disk is available to store files.
Which three cmdlets should you run in sequence?
To answer, move the appropriate three cmdlets from the list of cmdlets to the answer area
and arrange them in the correct order

Answer: See the explanation.

Explanation:
Box 1: Initialize-Disk
Box 2: New-Partition
Box 3: Format Volume
Note:
* The following script accomplishes these four tasks (listed below):
Initialize-Disk -PartitionStyle MBR -PassThru |
New-Partition -AssignDriveLetter -UseMaximumSize |
Format-Volume -FileSystem NTFS -NewFileSystemLabel “disk2” -Confirm:$false
* Use PowerShell to Initialize Raw Disks and to Partition and Format Volumes

With Windows PowerShell 3.0 in Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012, I can perform all of
these operations via Windows PowerShell functions from the Storage modulE. The process
is the same as I would do via the Disk Management tool. The steps are:
Get the disk that has a raw partition stylE.
Initialize the disk.
Partition the disk.
Format the volumE.
* Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a point-to-point serial protocol that moves data to and from
computer storage devices such as hard drives and tape drives.SAS replaces the older
Parallel SCSI (Small Computer System Interface, pronounced “scuzzy”), bus technology that
first appeared in the mid-1980s.SAS, like its predecessor, uses the standard SCSI command
set.SAS offers backward compatibility with SATA, versions 2 and later. This allows for SATA
drives to be connected to SAS backplanes. The reverse, connecting SAS drives to SATA
backplanes, is not possible
