Which of the following RAID levels does not offer fault tolerance? RAID 6 RAID 10 RAID 5 RAID 0 RAID 1
RAID 0
Which of the following terms refers to a backup strategy that relies on creating and maintaining copies of data in real-time or near real-time on a separate system? Mirroring Virtualization Journaling Replication
Replication
Hardware RAID Level 0: (Select all that apply) Requires a minimum of 2 drives to implement Is also known as disk striping Decreases reliability (failure of any disk in the array results in the loss of all data in the array) Is also referred to as disk mirroring Offers less volume capacity in comparison to RAID 1 Requires at least 3 drives to implement Is suitable for systems where performance has higher priority than fault tolerance Offers improved reliability by creating identical data sets on each drive (failure of one drive does not destroy the array as each drive contains identical copy of the data)
Requires a minimum of 2 drives to implement Is also known as disk striping Decreases reliability (failure of any disk in the array results in the loss of all data in the array) Is suitable for systems where performance has higher priority than fault tolerance
