Why each option
DISKPART is the Windows command-line tool that allows technicians to create, delete, format, and manage disk partitions and logical volumes.
DISKPART is a powerful Windows command-line utility that supports creating new partitions and logical volumes on both basic and dynamic disks. It can be invoked from the command prompt and supports commands such as 'create partition primary' and 'create volume simple', making it the correct tool for creating new logical volumes in Windows 7.
FORMAT is used to prepare an existing partition with a file system and cannot create new partitions or logical volumes.
CHKDSK scans and repairs file system errors on existing volumes and has no capability for creating or resizing partitions.
FDISK is a legacy DOS partitioning tool that is not available or supported in Windows 7; it was replaced by DISKPART.
