You have a report of a customer with a Hard Disk Drive with bad sectors on /dev/sdr, what would you do to confirm the serial number and identify the disk with bad sectors? If it was in a Linux RAID, what commands would you run to remove it from the array and add a new disk?
Using a RAID array to create live backups of physical hard drives is a way for increasing the available capacity of the hard drive. Alternatively, are you willing to sacrifice half of your available disc space for backup? Which kind of RAID is the best solution for a home computer system that has regular power outages that might result in hard disc failures?

- Your supervisor asked you to up a RAID hard drive array in a tower system, which has a motherboard that uses the B360 chipset. You have installed the required three matching hard drives to hold the array. When you enter BIOS/UEFI to configure the RAID, you cannot find the menus for the RAID configuration. What is most likely the problem?arrow_forwardWhich RAID level uses a mirror (shadow) set, and which doesn't?arrow_forwardWhich RAID settings are the most cost efficient while yet providing enough redundancy?arrow_forward
- Suppose you have been asked by a business to support an older legacy system that they need to stay running. To keep this system running you need to install an extra older hard drive that the company has. The drive is a Maxtor Quantum Fireball Plus AS 20.5-GB hard drive. You want the drive to be the slave drive, and you know that you must change the current jumper settings. The four jumpers on the drive are labeled DS, CS, PK, and Rsvd. The description of the jumpers doesn't tell you how to set the jumpers so the drive is the slave. The documentation is not physically available. What do you do? What jumpers need to be set to have the drive function as a slave drive? How do you know? Where did you find this information?arrow_forwardWhich RAID level distributes data over several disks in order to increase performance and provide fault tolerance?arrow_forwardHi. What is the repair mechanism of RAID 0,1,5 and 10 when one or more drive failed? Thanks Mohammadarrow_forward
- Which RAID is the best for a home computer system that experiences frequent power outages?arrow_forwardA method for doing live backups of physical hard drives is to set up a RAID array, albeit doing so will lower the hard drive's capacity. Would you rather have backup at the cost of using up half your disk space, as an alternative? Which kind of RAID is the best option for a home computer system that often experiences power outages that might cause hard disk failures?arrow_forwardWhen Windows reports that your hard drive is developing bad sectors, what is your first step?

- Which RAID level makes use of a mirror (shadow) set and which does not?arrow_forwardA method for doing live backups of physical hard drives is to set up a RAID array, however doing so will diminish the hard drive's capacity.
