Explanation

EX500 is the node type designed to support 2 TB disks, making it the correct choice for capacity-optimized storage using that specific drive size.

The EX5000 (A) is a higher-capacity expansion node that uses larger drives, not the 2 TB form factor. The EXF900 (B) is an all-flash node - the "F" indicates flash/SSD storage, so spinning-disk capacities like 2 TB don't apply. The EX7000 (D) is a performance-tier node designed around different (typically larger or higher-RPM) drive configurations, not 2 TB drives.

Memory tip: Associate "EX500" with "standard 2 TB" - the smaller model number maps to the more modest 2 TB drive size, while the "F" in EXF900 is your flag that it's flash-only.
