VMware App Volumes (VCP-AM 2019) — Question 37

In a 10-node hybrid vSAN cluster, each node has seven 4TB magnetic disks and one 2TB SSD.
What is the raw storage capacity of the vSAN datastore?

Answer options

• A. 140TB
• B. 150TB
• C. 280 TB
• D. 300 TB

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The total raw storage capacity is calculated by multiplying the number of nodes by the total storage of the magnetic disks. Each node has 7 disks of 4TB, contributing 28TB per node, and for 10 nodes, this equals 280TB. The SSDs do not add to the raw storage capacity in a hybrid configuration, making the correct answer 280TB and invalidating the other options.
