A customer is planning on migrating their Exchange data to a VNX array. You have gathered the
following information:

Calculating for RAID 5, what is the minimum number of 15K SAS drives required?

A.
84
B.
100
C.
34

You forgot the R5 write penalty (which is 4). It´s
(0.5 * 6000) + (4 * 0.5 * 60000) = 15000
15000 / 180 = 83.33 (which means 84 drives).
