Why each option

In Windows Server, both Computer Management and Disk Management are used to manage storage, including adding new volumes. Disk Management is a snap-in within Computer Management specifically for disk and volume operations.

AComputer ManagementCorrect

Computer Management is a console that consolidates many administrative tools, including Disk Management, allowing an administrator to manage local or remote computers and perform tasks like adding new volumes.

BSystem Properties

System Properties is used to configure basic system settings, view computer name, hardware, advanced system settings, and remote settings, but it does not provide an interface for managing disk volumes.

CDevice Manager

Device Manager is used to view and control the hardware attached to the computer, manage device drivers, and troubleshoot hardware issues, but it is not used to create or add new storage volumes.

DDisk ManagementCorrect

Disk Management is a graphical utility within Windows that allows users to initialize disks, create and format partitions (volumes), and manage drive letters and paths, directly enabling the addition of new volumes.

EMy Computer

"My Computer" (now typically called "This PC") is used to browse files and folders on drives and network locations, but it does not offer functionality to create or add new volumes.
