HPE Converged Storage Solutions — Question 22

A customer needs a centralized solution for storing departmental data to be accessed by Windows-based laptops and other personal devices.
Which solution should you recommend?

Answer options

• A. Block storage, directly accessed over FC
• B. Block storage, directly accessed over SAS
• C. Object storage, accessed over S3 connector
• D. File-oriented storage, accessed over SMB

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as block storage accessed over SAS provides high performance and is suitable for departmental data access by Windows devices. Options A and C do not fit the requirement for departmental data access across various devices, and option D, while file-oriented, does not offer the same performance characteristics as block storage accessed over SAS.
