Describe a dynamic disk.

What will be an ideal response?


A dynamic disk does not use traditional partitioning, which makes it possible to set up a large number of volumes on one disk and provides the ability to extend volumes onto additional physical disks. The number of disks that can be incorporated into one spanned volume is limited to 32. In addition to volume extensions and spanned volumes, dynamic disks support RAID levels 0, 1, and 5. Dynamic disks can be formatted for NTFS and are used when you do not implement a dual-boot system. Also, dynamic disks can be reactivated should they go offline because they have been powered down or disconnected.
