CompTIA Server+ (SK0-004) — Question 37

An administrator is working to improve the speed at which archived data can be accessed. This data is currently stored on DLT and is accessed for random searches. Which of the following methods would provide the FASTEST access to the data?

Answer options

• A. Migrate the data from DLT to LTO tape
• B. Migrate the data from DLT to an optical device
• C. Migrate the data from DLT to a tape library
• D. Migrate the data from DLT to a SAN volume

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Migrating the data to an optical device allows for faster access due to the nature of optical storage, which is designed for quick read operations. In contrast, LTO tape, tape libraries, and SAN volumes may not provide the same level of speed for random access compared to optical media, which excels in that aspect.
