Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 91

How does virtualized storage help avoid data loss if a drive fails?

Answer options

• A. Multiple copies in different locations
• B. Drives are backed up, swapped, and archived constantly
• C. Full back ups weekly
• D. Data loss is unavoidable with drive failures
• E. Incremental backups daily

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because virtualized storage typically maintains multiple copies of data across different locations, ensuring that if one drive fails, the data can still be retrieved from another location. Options B, C, and E refer to backup strategies but do not specifically address the immediate availability of data through virtualization, while D incorrectly states that data loss is unavoidable.
