   A small business is considering enabling FAST VP on their Unity array to improve storage efficiency. They have a mix of flash and capacity drives and want to reduce costs by placing less frequently accessed data on capacity drives. However, they are concerned about the performance impact of tiering. Which statement accurately describes how FAST VP addresses this concern?

   • AFAST VP moves all data to the flash tier during peak hours and to capacity during off-peak hours, ensuring consistent performance.
   • BFAST VP continuously monitors access patterns and moves only the most active data to flash, minimizing the performance impact on capacity drives.
   • CFAST VP only works with all-flash pools, so performance is never a concern.
   • DFAST VP requires manual intervention to move data, so the administrator can control when performance is impacted.
