An organization plans to deploy a new application in their environment. The new application requires 3 TB of storage space. During peak workloads, the application is expected to generate 2450 IOPS with a typical I/O size of 2 KB. The capacity of each available disk drive is 500 GB. The maximum number of IOPS a drive can perform at with 70 percent utilization is 90 IOPS.
What is the minimum number of disk drives needed to meet the application's capacity and performance requirements given a RAID 0 configuration?
A. 6
B. 16
C. 25
D. 28
