A. B. C. D.A.
Given the situation, the user needs to install a new program, but the workstation does not meet the requirements for free space. The user also needs a quick way to install and access the program.
Out of the given options, the BEST option for the user would be to install the program to a USB drive (Option B). Here's why:
A. Install to a network drive: This option requires the workstation to be connected to a network drive. If the user does not have access to a network drive, this option would not work. Additionally, installing a program over a network drive may result in slower installation times due to network latency.
B. Install to a USB drive: This option allows the user to install the program on a separate drive without affecting the workstation's storage capacity. USB drives are portable and can be used on multiple workstations. The installation process is generally faster than installing over a network drive. However, it is important to note that the USB drive should have enough free space to accommodate the program.
C. Install to a DVD-RW: This option requires a DVD-RW and a DVD writer. Not all workstations have DVD writers, and purchasing a DVD-RW is an additional cost. Additionally, installing programs from a DVD may be slower than installing from a USB drive.
D. Install to a secondary internal HDD: This option would require the user to install a secondary internal hard drive on the workstation, which is not a quick solution. It is also an expensive option, and not all workstations have the capacity for additional internal hard drives.
Therefore, the BEST option for the user would be to install the program to a USB drive, assuming the USB drive has enough free space to accommodate the program.
