No way, D is too risky! Always go for B in a hot-swap situation.

B sounds right, but I’d double-check the RAID manual just in case.

I thought you had to power off for safety? Not sure about B.

Definitely B! You can replace the drive while it's still running.

RAID 5 can handle one drive failure, so hot-swapping is possible.

I recall something about needing to rebuild the array after replacing a drive, but I can't remember if that means switching to RAID 6 or just replacing the drive directly.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like rebooting the server isn't necessary for replacing a drive in a RAID setup.

I think I remember that with RAID 5, you can replace a failed drive while the server is still running, so option B might be correct.

I practiced a similar question where we had to identify the right procedure for RAID configurations, and I think option D is too cautious for RAID 5.

Based on the information provided, I think the best advice would be to let the test run longer. An 87% confidence level is decent, but I'd want to see a higher level, like 95%, before being confident enough to stop the test.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem similar, so I'll need to think it through carefully. Maybe I can eliminate a couple of the choices first.

Ugh, I hate these types of questions. There are so many different computer viruses and worms out there, it's hard to keep track of all the details. I'm just going to take a guess and go with Klez, since that name sounds vaguely familiar.
