Windows Server 2012 "Early Experts" Challenge - Exam 70-410 - Storage Spaces

This study guide is provided as part of the Windows Server 2012 "Early Experts" Challenge and steps through the resources that I personally used when preparing for the following exam objectives on Exam 70-410, Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012:

  • Install and Configure Servers
    • Configure Local Storage
      • Design Storage Spaces
      • Configure Storage Pools and Disk Pools
      • Deploy and Manage Storage Spaces with PowerShell
      • Thin Provisioning and Trim Provisioning

Note that these same exam objectives are also targeted in the related upgrade exam for IT Pros certified as an MCSA on Windows Server 2008: Exam 70-417, Upgrading Your Skills to MCSA on Windows Server 2012.  As such, this study guide is also relevant for individuals preparing for these objectives on this upgrade exam.
