CHAPTER 19Filesystems: Objective 3.2: Compare and contrast components of an operating system

Filesystems provide the operating system (and its users!) with a method to organize all of the data that is stored on disk to make it easy to find files and open them with the appropriate application. As you prepare for the ITF+ exam, you'll need to be familiar with the features of common filesystems.

In this chapter, you'll learn everything you need to know about the first set of subtopics for ITF+ objective 3.2:

  • Filesystems and features
  • Features
  • File management

The remainder of objective 3.2 is covered in Chapter 20, “Services and Processes,” and Chapter 21, “Drivers, Utilities, and Interfaces.”
