The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) wants to know which data is likely to be available to the thief. Which of the following should be the network administrator s response?
Since a RAID 5 array uses parity, all the data on the drive could be recovered.
Since the drive contains RAW data from a broken array, some data could be recovered with difficulty.
Since the drive contains a duplicate of the other drives, all the data on the array will be available.
Since a RAID 5 array stripes the data evenly over all the drives, no information could be recovered.
