Answer: B - Storage Area Network (SAN) consists of large amounts of storage devices linked together by a high-speed private network and storage-specific switches. This creates a “fabric” that allows users to attach to and interacts in a transparent mode. When a user makes a request for a file, the SAN software finds it and provides it to the user. SANs provide redundancy, fault tolerance, reliability, and backups, and allow the users and administrators to interact with the SAN as one virtual entity.
