You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. You add a 4-TB disk named
Disk 5 to Server1.
You need to ensure that you can create a 3-TB volume on Disk 5.
What should you do?
A.
Create a storage pool.
B.
Convert the disk to a dynamic disk
C.
Create a VHD, and then attach the VHD.
D.
Convert the disk to a GPT disk.
Explanation:
MBR max is 2TB, the disk must be GPT
For any hard drive over 2TB, we need to use GPT partition. If you have a disk larger than 2TB size,
the rest of the disk space will not be used unless you convert it to GPT. An existing MBR partition
can’t be converted to GPT unless it is completely empty; you must either delete everything and
convert or create the partition as GPT. It is not possible to boot to a GPT partition, impossible to
convert MBR to GPT without data loss.
The question has no info regarding what type of partition actually is used!?

As the drive has just been added and the default for a new disk is MBR, which only supports up to 2TB, we must convert to GPT
