Why each option

To enable Windows Search indexing for files on a newly created mirrored storage space (drive E) in Windows 8.1, you must configure the indexing options through the drive's properties.

ARight-click in an empty space under the Documents library.

Right-clicking in a library only allows adding folders to that specific library, not configuring indexing for an entire drive.

BOpen Libraries from Windows Search. Right-click and select New Name the library E.

Creating a new library named E does not automatically enable indexing for the entire physical drive E or its contents.

CRight-click the properties of drive E.Correct

To ensure files on a specific drive are indexed by Windows Search, you need to access the drive's properties, navigate to the "General" or "Advanced" tab, and then enable the "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed" option. This directs the Windows Search service to scan and index the content on that particular volume.

DRight-click drive E. Select Include in Library. Create a new Library.

Including a drive in a library would make the files accessible via the library, but it doesn't guarantee that the underlying drive itself is fully indexed by the Windows Search service at the file system level for all content.
