How many storage devices are needed to implement a simple storage space?

1

You have six 500 GB disks. You are using parity. How much usable disk space do you have?

2500

How many storage devices are needed to implement parity for data resiliency?

Srv7 has a single 500 GB hard disk installed. A single volume named System uses all 100 GB on the disk and holds the operating system and system files. Configure disk storage as follows: Create a second volume named Data that is 1 TB in size. Add fault tolerance to both the System and the Data volumes. Provide increased performance to both volumes, if possible. You will add additional 1 TB hard disks to the system as necessary to meet these goals. You want to add the minimum number of hard disks

SRV02 holds a shared folder named Forecast for the Managers group. Maria is a member of the Managers group. You would like to grant the Managers group full control to the folder named Forecast, but limit Maria's access to Read only. You have added the Managers group to the access list for the Forecast folder and granted full control access. You now need to limit Maria's access to the folder. What should you do? (Select two. Each choice is a complete solution.)

Add Maria to the NTFS permissions for the folder. Grant Read access. Remove Maria's account from the Managers group and grant Read access.

Srv7 currently has a single hard disk. The System volume takes up the entire hard disk. You need to create a new volume named Data for storing files used by applications running on the server. You want the new volume to optimize performance. Fault tolerance is not necessary for this volume. What should you do?

Add two hard disks. Convert both disks to dynamic. Create a new striped volume using both disks.

You want to assign NTFS permissions taking the least amount of actions possible. What should you do?

Assign Allow read & execute, List folder contents, and Read to the Accounting group. Assign Allow write to Mary.
