Which two specifications may differ between models within the VSP Midrange family? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• Anumber of controllers
• Bnumber of CPUs and cores per controller
• Cnumber of drives supported
• Dnumber of power supplies

• A
  13% (7)
• B
  82% (45)
• D
  5% (3)

Explanation

Within the VSP Midrange family, models are differentiated by their performance capacity (CPUs/cores per controller) and scalability (drive count), allowing organizations to choose a model that matches their workload and capacity requirements - making B and C correct. The number of controllers (A) is typically fixed across the family (usually dual-controller for redundancy), so it doesn't vary between models, eliminating it as an answer. Power supplies (D) are similarly standardized within the family to ensure consistent redundancy, making them a fixed rather than variable specification.

Memory tip: Think "Performance and Capacity scale, Architecture stays the same." CPUs/cores (performance) and drive count (capacity) are the knobs you turn when choosing a model; the controller count and power supply count are architectural constants baked into the family design.
