Question:

While manually parsing a FAT16 directory region, the examiner reads a starting cluster value of 0xFFF9. What does this value signify? / FAT16 डायरेक्टरी क्षेत्र को मैन्युअल रूप से पार्स करते समय परीक्षक को प्रारंभिक क्लस्टर मान 0xFFF9 मिला। यह मान क्या दर्शाता है?

1.
The cluster is marked bad and must be skipped
2.
An end-of-chain marker indicating the last cluster of the file
3.
A deleted file entry awaiting recovery
4.
A free cluster available for allocation

Correct Answer: An end-of-chain marker indicating the last cluster of the file

In FAT16, values 0xFFF8 and above are reserved as end-of-chain markers; 0x0000 means free and 0xFFF7 marks bad clusters. / FAT16 में 0xFFF8 से ऊपर के मान एंड-ऑफ-चेन दर्शाते हैं; 0x0000 खाली और 0xFFF7 खराब क्लस्टर है। Option (c) is the trap — deletion is marked with 0xE5 in the filename, not in the cluster field.
