CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 259

A technician needs to format a 64GB flash drive. Which of the following formats will the technician MOST likely use?

Answer options

• A. FAT
• B. ExFAT
• C. FAT32
• D. CDFS

Correct answer: B

Explanation

ExFAT is the most suitable format for a 64GB flash drive as it supports larger files and is widely compatible with various operating systems. FAT32 has a file size limit of 4GB, making it less ideal for larger files. FAT is an older file system that lacks the features needed for modern storage devices, and CDFS is specifically for CD-ROMs, not flash drives.
