Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Correct Answer:

Media copier is correct. When making a forensic copy of a computer’s hard drive, you must use media copying tools to make an exact “bit-by-bit” copy of the entire contents of the hard drive.

Incorrect Answers:

All other answers are incorrect. The other choices (backup program, drag-and-drop, and directory copier) will copy all of the files and directories, but not in a manner that will produce an exact copy of the hard drive.
