This check determines the file system of each hard drive to ensure that it's using the NTFS file system. NTFS is a secured file system that allows you to control or restrict access to individual files or directories. For example, if you want to allow your co-workers to be able to view your files, but not change them, you can do this by using the Access Control Lists (ACLs) provided by NTFS.
Note: For this check to succeed, the drive must be shared using administrative drive shares.
