A customer wants to upgrade a VSP G700 to 512 GB RAM capacity. What is the valid CFM configuration?

Question

Options

• Atwo BM35 per controller
• Btwo BM45 per controller
• Cone BM45 per controller
• Dtwo BM35 per system

• A
  7% (2)
• B
  75% (21)
• C
  14% (4)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Option B is correct because the VSP G700 requires two BM45 modules per controller to reach the 512 GB RAM capacity - each BM45 contributes 256 GB, and since the G700 is a dual-controller system, installing two BM45s per controller delivers the full 512 GB target.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (two BM35 per controller): The BM35 is a lower-capacity module; two BM35s per controller only reach 256 GB - half the required capacity.
• C (one BM45 per controller): A single BM45 per controller yields only 256 GB total across the system, again falling short of 512 GB.
• D (two BM35 per system): This is the worst option - "per system" instead of "per controller" means only two modules total, and the lower-capacity BM35 makes this nowhere near 512 GB.

Memory tip: Think "45 > 35, and you need two - one per controller isn't enough." The higher module number (BM45) = higher capacity, and you always configure memory per controller, not per system. If you remember those two rules, you can eliminate all three distractors instantly.
