CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 399

An administrator needs to configure RAID for a video-rendering workstation at minimal cost. The solution should have high read/write performance and maximum drive storage utilization. Redundancy is not a concern. Which of the following RAID configurations should the administrator use?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

RAID 0 is the best option for maximizing performance and storage utilization without any redundancy, making it ideal for tasks like video rendering. RAID 1 provides redundancy but sacrifices half of the storage capacity. RAID 5 and RAID 10 offer redundancy and performance, but they do not utilize storage as efficiently as RAID 0, making them more costly.
