Explanation

Flash Pool (hybrid aggregate) is a NetApp feature that combines SSDs as a high-performance caching tier with traditional HDDs as the capacity tier. The HDD types supported in a Flash Pool aggregate are FC (Fibre Channel), SATA, and SAS - but the SSD tier is always required. Therefore, the valid combinations are: FC + SSD (B), SATA + SSD (D), and SAS + SSD (E). Option A (FC and SAS) and option C (SATA and SAS) are invalid because they contain only HDD types with no SSD component, which means no Flash Pool cache tier exists - that would just be a standard HDD aggregate.
