3.1 Files Systems 02

What is the primary role of a file system in a computer?

• To control the computer's power supply

• To manage internet connections

• To increase the speed of the processor

• To organize and locate files quickly

Why do different devices use different file systems?

• Because they are made by different manufacturers

• Because they perform different tasks and have unique requirements

• Because they use different types of electricity

• Because they have different storage capacities

What happens to a file when you delete it from your computer?

• The file is compressed and stored in a backup location

• The file's data remains, but its reference is removed from the catalog

• The file is moved to a hidden folder

• The file is permanently erased from the hard drive

How does data recovery software work?

• It creates a new file to replace the deleted one

• It scans the internet for a copy of the file

• It restores the deleted catalog entry for a file

• It finds data that is still on the drive but no longer listed in the catalog

What is a key trade-off in file system design?

• Balancing security and compatibility across devices

• Balancing speed and storage capacity

• Balancing file size and file type

• Balancing cost and durability
