Answer: A - Disk quota should be used to control the amount of disk space consumed by network users on a network and to allocate limited disk space in a reasonable way.

Key Takeaway: A practical implementation of a disk quota is when an administrator in an organization sets a limit on drive space to ensure that available resources are equitably and reasonably distributed among the users of the operating systems on a home or business network. This helps to prevent the use of more resources by one user, which may have a detrimental effect on the usage of another user.
