What does 'hard disk space requirement' refer to?

• A. The storage space needed for installing the software, not taking into consideration any space needed by files you create
• B. The total capacity of the hard drive
• C. The space used by user-created files
• D. The space needed for backing up data offsite

Answer: (A)

Hard disk space requirement is about how much free storage the computer must have to install the software. It refers to the program’s own files and any temporary space the installer uses, not the drive’s total capacity or the space taken by your own documents, and not space set aside for backups offsite. So when you see a number for this requirement, make sure you have at least that much free space available before installing.
