It's a 2-port in slot 0 by default.

Wait, are you sure it's not slot 2?

I thought it was a 4-port card, not 2-port.

I remember slot numbers being important in our study sessions, but I can't recall the exact default placement. This is tricky!

I'm not entirely sure, but I have a vague memory of a 4-port card being discussed. Could it be option C?

I think the default FC card is a 2-port, but I can't remember if it's in slot 0 or slot 2.

I've got this one! The default is a 2-port FC card in slot 2. I'm confident that's the right answer based on my experience with this array.

Wait, is it a 4-port card in slot 0? I'm second-guessing myself now. Let me re-read the question carefully.

Okay, I think the answer is 2-port in slot 0. That sounds familiar from the training I've done on this model. I'll mark that down.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to review the documentation on the FlashArray//XR50R2/3 to figure out the default FC card configuration.

I'm pretty sure the default FC card is a 2-port in slot 0, but I'll double-check the specs to be sure.

Wait, is this a trick question? I bet the correct answer is that the FC card is actually a hologram, and the data just magically travels through the air. Technology these days, am I right?

Hold up, didn't they upgrade the slot configuration recently? I'm pretty sure it's a 2-port in slot 2 now. Gotta stay on top of those FlashArray updates, you know?

Nah, I think it's a 4-port card in slot 0. Gotta have that extra bandwidth for all the data I'm pushing through!

I'm not sure, but I think the default type and placement of the PCIe FC card is 2-port in slot 2 for better performance.

I disagree, I believe it is 4-port in slot 0 because it provides more connectivity options.
