File slack is just wasted space, right?

I think large cluster size actually increases file slack, not decreases.

I feel like file slack is just the leftover space, but I’m not confident about the implications of cluster size on it. I hope I remember correctly!

I practiced a question similar to this, and I recall that user names and passwords can indeed be found in slack space. So, that statement seems true.

I think file slack can contain remnants of data, but I’m not clear on whether it includes system memory data. I need to double-check that.

I remember studying file slack, but I'm not entirely sure if large cluster sizes actually decrease slack volume. That seems counterintuitive.

Option A is correct. File slack is the unused space at the end of a file, and that's a fact. Although, I do wonder if file slack can be used to store hidden messages, like secret codes or love letters. Wouldn't that be a plot twist!

B is the right answer. Larger clusters mean more wasted space, and that's just basic file system knowledge. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to go back to Computers 101.
