Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v4 — Question 40
A company's Finance department needs 200 GB of storage for their business applications. A LUN is created with 200 GB and RAID 1 is configured to support the applications. If the cost of storage per GB is $2, what is the chargeback cost to the department for application storage?
Answer options
- A. $ 200
- B. $ 400
- C. $ 800
- D. $ 1500
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The chargeback cost is calculated by multiplying the storage amount (200 GB) by the cost per GB ($2), which equals $400. However, since RAID 1 mirrors the data for redundancy, the effective storage used doubles to 400 GB, leading to a total chargeback of $800. The other options do not accurately reflect the total cost based on the RAID configuration.
