Yeah, I think we should stick with B for this scenario.

RAID-1 is limited in capacity though. We need more space.

I vaguely remember that RAID-5 offers better capacity than RAID-1, but does it really support two failures? I should double-check that.

If we need to tolerate two host failures, I feel like RAID-5 is the right choice, but I’m a bit confused about the maximum usable capacity part.

I'm pretty confident that option B is the right answer here. RAID-5 provides the best balance of failure tolerance and capacity utilization for this scenario.

I'm a little confused about the "maximum usable capacity" requirement. Doesn't RAID-5 typically have lower usable capacity than RAID-1? I'll have to think this through carefully.

Okay, I've got this. The administrator needs to configure a storage policy that can tolerate 2 host failures and provide the maximum usable capacity. That means the answer has to be option B - 2 failures, RAID-5.

I think we practiced a similar question where RAID-1 was mentioned for single failures, but I can't recall if it applies here for two failures.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not totally sure about the differences between RAID-1 and RAID-5 in the context of vSAN. I'll need to review the details on those storage policies.

I think the key here is to maximize usable capacity while still being able to tolerate up to two host failures. That rules out options C and D, since they don't match the requirements.
