What is the best approach to handle a hard disk failure on a FortiAnalyzer that supports hardware RAID?
The correct answer is C. Perform a hot swap of the disk. In a RAID configuration, especially when hot-swapping is supported, you can replace a failed disk without shutting down the device. The RAID array will automatically rebuild once the new disk is inserted, minimizing downtime and maintaining data integrity.
