Unused sectors? Dumb space? What kind of made-up answer choices are these? I'm not falling for that trap!

Hidden partition is a great option too. It's a sneaky way to keep the data out of sight and away from prying eyes.

Slack space seems like the obvious choice here. Victor can easily hide his secret information in the unused areas of the file system.
