You're configuring a RAID 5 solution on a server running Windows Server 2012 R2. You're using five 750 GB hard drives in the RAID array. How much free space will you get after configuring the RAID 5 solution?

A) 3,750 GB

B) 1,500 GB

C) 3,000 GB

D) 2,250 GB

C) 3,000 GB

After configuring the RAID 5 solution, you will get 3,000 GB free space. You can calculate free space for a RAID 5 solution using the following formula:

Available free space for RAID 5 = [ Total drive space - 1/n (Total drive space) ]

where, n is the number of hard drives

According to the question, total drive space = ( 5 x 750 ) = 3,750 GB

Free space for the RAID 5 solution = [ 3,750 - 1/5 (3,750) ] = ( 3,750 - 750 ) = 3,000 GB
