What does exFAT stand for as indicated by its features?

  1. Exclusive FAT

  2. Extended FAT

  3. Expanded File Allocation Table

  4. Extra Functional Advanced Technology

The correct answer is: Extended FAT

ExFAT stands for Extended FAT, which refers to the extended features and capabilities of the FAT file system. It is not exclusive, as it is available for use by multiple operating systems, and it does not have an expanded file allocation table like option C suggests. It also does not stand for Extra Functional Advanced Technology, as it is primarily used for file systems and not a technology itself. Therefore, option B is the most accurate and fitting explanation of what exFAT stands for.
