CTOnews.com March 9, Microsoft added resilient File system (ReFS) support for Win11 systems in January this year. According to the latest tweets from foreign netizens PhantomOcean3, Microsoft hides a new feature based on ReFS called "Dev Drive" (devvol) in the preview update of Win11 Build 25309.

Albacore, another reliable source, shares more information about the feature. Users can find "Dev Drive" by visiting the "Privacy and Security" option in the settings application in Win11 Build 25309 preview, which allows developers to create virtual hard drives (VHD).

The following four pictures show the steps to create a virtual hard disk. First there is the intuitive "create development drive" option (minimum 50GB), then the location of the drive, the creation of the VHD window, and finally the option Dev Drive to format the newly created VHD.
