An administrator is adding NAS-based storage to a server. Which of the following strategies will allow users to see BEST performance with this new NAS storage?

HBAs (Host Bus Adapters) are typically used for connecting to SANs via Fibre Channel or iSCSI, not for standard file-based NAS protocols like NFS or SMB.

SCSI controllers are designed for direct-attached storage devices and are not used for network-based storage such as NAS.

NAS (Network Attached Storage) relies on network connectivity. Connecting with two teamed 1 Gb NICs provides increased aggregate bandwidth, allowing for faster data transfer to and from the NAS, and also offers redundancy in case one NIC fails.

Fabric switches are primarily associated with Fibre Channel SANs; while redundant network switches are beneficial for NAS, this choice focuses on the switch infrastructure rather than the server's direct connection configuration for optimal performance.
