I recall that traditional RAID setups usually have a max of 16 drives, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

I’m a bit confused. Was it 64 drives for a traditional RAID Group? I need to double-check my notes.

B) 16 drives sounds about right. Any more and I'd need a forklift to move the darn thing. Although, maybe I could just strap the RAID group to my back and call it a workout.

I think D) 32 drives is the way to go. That's a nice, even number. Plus, it leaves plenty of room for my growing collection of cat videos.

A) 64 drives? That's a lot of disks! My grandma's old floppy disk collection could probably fill that RAID group.
