Why each option

This question asks for a disk redundancy solution for a single file server to prevent data loss and downtime from a single disk failure.

ARAID 1Correct

RAID 1, also known as mirroring, creates an exact duplicate of data on two or more disks. If one disk fails, the system can continue to operate using the mirrored data on the remaining disk, thus providing high availability for disk failures within a single server.

BRAID 0

RAID 0, or striping, distributes data across multiple disks without redundancy; a single disk failure results in complete data loss and server downtime.

CActive/passive cluster

An active/passive cluster provides high availability at the server level, not specifically for disk redundancy within a single server.

DDisk-to-disk

"Disk-to-disk" is a general term for data transfer or backup between disks, not a specific RAID level or high availability solution for disk redundancy.
