SK0-003 · Question #257

Which of the following BEST describes a benefit of RAID 0?

The correct answer is C. High performance. RAID 0, known as striping, distributes data across multiple disks to enhance performance without providing any redundancy. Its primary benefit is significantly increased read and write speeds.

Why each option

RAID 0, known as striping, distributes data across multiple disks to enhance performance without providing any redundancy. Its primary benefit is significantly increased read and write speeds.

AHigh fault tolerance

RAID 0 offers no fault tolerance; if any disk in the array fails, all data is lost.

BEase of failure recovery

RAID 0 has no failure recovery capabilities as it lacks redundancy, meaning a single disk failure results in complete data loss.

CHigh performanceCorrect

RAID 0 achieves high performance by striping data across all disks in the array, allowing multiple disk heads to work in parallel to read and write different segments of data simultaneously. This parallel operation significantly boosts both read and write throughput, making it ideal for applications requiring maximum speed.

DNo configuration

RAID 0 requires configuration to set up the array and stripe data across disks, so it is not a 'no configuration' solution.
