   A hospital's EMR application requires a 2 TB block volume for database files. The storage administrator must ensure that the volume consumes physical capacity only as data is written, and the application can tolerate some performance variability. The volume will be used for a new deployment, so no existing data needs to be migrated. Which provisioning type should the administrator select when creating the volume?

   • AThick with a high space warning threshold
   • BThin provisioning
   • CThick provisioning
   • DThin with a low space warning threshold
