You need to create a storage space that contains the two disks.

Provide fault tolerance if a single disk fails.
Maximize the amount of files that can be stored in the storage space.
What should you create?
A. a parity space
B. a simple space
C. a spanned volume
D. a mirrored space
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
There’s no mention about a 3rd disk except the OS disk.
This can only be a mirror space.
And, "Simple space"… resilient, really ? No.
"Simple spaces are designed for increased performance when resiliency isn’t very important.
They are best suited for temporary data, such as video rendering files, image editor scratch files, and intermediary compiler object files."
