Wait, can Smart DR really handle four recovery points? That seems a bit much.

Haha, "Smart DR" - sounds like a dating app for tech geeks! But seriously, that's probably the best option.

Smart DR seems promising with the recovery point requirements, but I'm not sure if it handles the RPO and cross-hypervisor needs. Gotta research that one more.

Protection Policies sounds like it could be a good fit, but I'm not sure if it supports cross-hypervisor capabilities. I'll need to double-check the details on that.

Okay, let's see. The key things I need to look for are 1-hour RPO, four recovery points, and cross-hypervisor capabilities. I think I can rule out a few options based on that.
