AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
An application requires low-cost storage for infrequently accessed data where performance is not critical. Which Amazon EBS volume type should be selected for this requirement?
The Cold HDD (sc1) volume type offers the lowest cost per GB among EBS volume types. It is designed for infrequently accessed data with performance requirements lower than other SSD and even HDD options. While it provides the lowest storage cost, it is suitable for cold data where performance is not a priority.
