  1. The answer is definitely not A – Network Drive. The question specifies, “A quick way” and “user’s BEST option”.

    If there is already a secondary internal HDD in the system, this would be the quickest and BEST solution. It would not take any special setup and it would not be sending mass amounts of data over a network connection OR prone to network lag / disconnects. And that isn’t even accounting for if the program is capable of being installed on a network drive.

    I’ve honestly never tried installing on a network drive, but my 20 years of computer troubleshooting / IT work says this would be a terrible idea that would fail the majority of the time.

    The answer is absolutely – “D. Install to a secondary internal HDD”

  2. how is the answer not D? id imagine installing software to an internal HDD would be better than installing to a network drive.
