Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 124

What file structure database would you expect to find on floppy disks?

Answer options

• A. NTFS
• B. FAT32
• C. FAT16
• D. FAT12

Correct answer: D

Explanation

FAT12 is the file system specifically designed for floppy disks, supporting the limited storage capacity of these media. NTFS, FAT32, and FAT16 are not suitable for floppy disks due to their larger overhead and capacity requirements, making them inefficient for such small storage devices.
