NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA) – E-Series — Question 56
When a write from a SAN host is received, the information is stored within the controller before it is written to the underlying RAID.
In this scenario, which component stores the data?
Answer options
- A. HBA
- B. FlashCache
- C. Flash Pool
- D. NVRAM
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, NVRAM, as it is designed to temporarily hold data during write operations to ensure data integrity before it is committed to RAID storage. The other options, while related to storage, do not serve the same purpose of immediate data retention during write processes.
