• BX6000(all-flash mode)
• CX8000(all-flash mode)
• DX9000(all-flash mode)

• A
  100% (28)

Explanation

All four options are correct because Active-Active controller mode is supported across the entire listed product line, regardless of whether the system operates in HDD mode or all-flash mode. The X9000 in HDD mode (A) supports Active-Active because the controller architecture is independent of the drive media type; both controllers actively serve I/O simultaneously, improving throughput and eliminating failover delays. The X6000 all-flash (B) and X8000 all-flash (C) models support Active-Active because all-flash platforms are designed for high-speed, low-latency workloads that benefit from both controllers sharing the load from the start. The X9000 in all-flash mode (D) combines the high-capacity controller design of the X9000 chassis with flash media, and Active-Active applies here as well. Since every answer choice is correct, there are no wrong distractors in this question - it is testing whether you know that Active-Active support is not restricted to a specific model or media type within this product family.

Memory tip: Think of Active-Active as a property of the controller architecture, not the storage media. If the platform is listed in this product family, assume both controllers are always working - flash or spinning disk does not change that.
