Which two requirements must be met for storage devices used in Storage Replica?

Devices must have different manufacturers, and different storage types

Both must be configured as MBR disks, and must be of different sizes

Both must be configured as GPT disks, and must be exactly the same size

For Storage Replica to function correctly, both storage devices must be configured as GPT (GUID Partition Table) disks. GPT is essential because it allows for larger disk sizes and more partitions compared to MBR (Master Boot Record), making it more suitable for modern storage needs, especially in enterprise environments.

Additionally, having the devices be exactly the same size ensures that data can be mirrored accurately and effectively without any risk of data overflow or mismatch issues, as the replication process relies on having a consistent size for reading and writing operations. This requirement is critical for maintaining data integrity during synchronization between the two devices, enabling reliable disaster recovery and high availability scenarios.

The other choices do not align with the specific technical requirements of Storage Replica and therefore would not facilitate the intended operational capabilities or performance benchmarks expected from such a configuration.

Devices must support encryption, and must be connected to the same network
