Dynamic disk technology supports how many types of volumes?
5 volumes
Can be used to create volumes on dynamic disks and convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk?
blocked
Is dynamic variety the use of different sources of sound?
No, it refers to the different volumes.
What type of disk supports an unlimited number of volumes?
the correct answer to "THIS" question is DYNAMIC DISK.
Can you extend a striped volume unless it is on a dynamic disk?
Striped volumes cannot be extended after creation.
How do you delete dynamic partition?
Through the Diskpart Utility you can delete dynamic volumes. This utility can be found in the Windows 7 installation disk or the Windows 7 recovery disc.
How many partitions can a small computer system interface support?
It depends if you are using a basic disk or dynamic disk( you can go to your drive and convert it from basic to dynamic but if you go from dynamic to basic it will destroy all data you have on it) dynamic disk can have more partitions although with dynamic it calls partitions volumes
How many total partitions can a small computer system interface support?
It depends if you are using a basic disk or dynamic disk( you can go to your drive and convert it from basic to dynamic but if you go from dynamic to basic it will destroy all data you have on it) dynamic disk can have more partitions although with dynamic it calls partitions volumes
Under windows xp professional is it possible to create new raid 5 volumes on dynamic and basic drives?

What is dynamic disk and its type?
The Dynamic Disk is a physical disk that manages its volumes by using LDM database. What is the LDM database? LDM is an acronym of Logical Disk Manager, and it is a hidden database which size is 1MB at the end of the Dynamic Disk. The 1MB space records all the information of the volumes on a single disk, and also holds some related information on each dynamic disk. Such as Drive Letter, Volume Label, the begin sector of Volume, Volume size, the file system of Volume, and the current dynamic disk is which one and so on.

What are basic and dynamic disks?
Basic disks use normal partition tables supported by MS-DOS and all Windows versions. A basic disk contains basic volumes, such as primary partitions, extended partitions, and logical drives. If you have any volume sets, stripe sets, mirror sets, or stripe sets with parity, you must back them up and delete or convert them to dynamic disks before you install Windows XP Professional. A basic or dynamic disk can contain any combination of FAT16, FAT32, or NTFS partitions or volumes. The disadvantage of a basic disk is that you are limited to creating only four primary partitions per disk or three primary partitions and one extended partition with logical drives. Windows NT based systems can support striping and software RAID sets for basic disks but Windows 2000/XP/2003 do not.Dynamic disks are supported in Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003. Dynamic disks do not use partitions or logical drives. Dynamic disks were first introduced with Windows 2000. With dynamic disks you can create volumes that span multiple disks such as spanned and striped volumes, and you can also create fault tolerant volumes such as mirrored volumes and RAID 5 volumes. Dynamic disks offer greater flexibility for volume management because they use a database to track information about dynamic volumes on the disk and about other dynamic disks in the computer. Windows Server 2003 can repair a corrupted database on one dynamic disk by using the database on another dynamic disk. With dynamic storage, you can perform disk and volume management without restarting Windows.Dynamic disks are not supported on laptop computers or on computers with Windows XP Home Edition installed. The number of volumes that you can create on a dynamic hard disk is only limited by the amount of free space available. Windows XP Pro, Home or 64 Bit Edition does not support mirrored or RAID5 volumes.You can use both basic and dynamic disks on the same computer system.
Why 8 MB memory always unused?
The 8MB space at the end of the drive is not a partition, and not partitionable. It's reserved by Windows in case you want to use dynamic volumes.
