Which of the following is the minimum number of drives in an RAID 0 configuration?
The correct answer is A. 2. RAID 0, known as disk striping, combines multiple physical drives into one logical unit to improve performance by spreading data across them, but it requires a minimum of two drives and offers no data redundancy.

Why each option
RAID 0, known as disk striping, combines multiple physical drives into one logical unit to improve performance by spreading data across them, but it requires a minimum of two drives and offers no data redundancy.
RAID 0 requires a minimum of two drives to implement data striping, where data is broken into blocks and written across the disks in parallel, enhancing read/write performance.
Three drives are not the minimum requirement for a RAID 0 configuration; two drives are sufficient to establish striping.
Four drives are not the minimum requirement for a RAID 0 configuration; two drives are sufficient to establish striping.
Five drives are not the minimum requirement for a RAID 0 configuration; two drives are sufficient to establish striping.
