What should you create?

You have a server that runs Windows Server 2012.
The server contains the disks configured as shown in the following table.

You need to create a volume that can store up to 3 TB of user files. The solution must ensure that theuser files
are available if one of the disks in the volume fails.
What should you create?

A.
A RAID-5 volume on Disk 1, Disk 2, and Disk 3

B.
A storage pool on Disk 2 and Disk 3

C.
A mirrored volume on Disk 1 and Disk 4

D.
A mirrored volume on Disk 1 and Disk 3

Explanation:
The RAID volume would provide 8 TB of space and would be available if one of the disk fails.
However, you need at least three (but no more than 32) dynamic disks to create a RAID-5 volume.
Disk1 would have to be converted to a dynamic disk first.
Incorrect:
Not B: A storage pool would not ensure data redundancy. Not C: This mirror would provide only 2 TB of
storage. Not D: This mirror would provide 4 TB of storage. However, disk1 would have to converted to a
dynamic disk first.
