A forensically sound bit-stream duplicate whose hash matches the original at acquisition

Correct Answer: A forensically sound bit-stream duplicate whose hash matches the original at acquisition

Courts treat a verified bit-for-bit duplicate as the original because the hash proves it is indistinguishable from the source; prints and screenshots are merely demonstrative. / सत्यापित बिट-दर-बिट डुप्लिकेट को न्यायालय मूल मानता है क्योंकि हैश स्रोत से अभिन्नता सिद्ध करता है। Option (a) is the trap — insisting on the physical disk ignores settled digital-evidence practice.
