Assume you have a subsystem with a failure rate of .00002 failures/hour. At least one such subsystem must work for the system to be functional. You can use up to 2 such subsystems (either 1 or 2) in a network:

List and Sketch 3 types (options) of networks that could be used to arrange such subsystems FROM THE WORST to the BEST Reliability

Network Option 1: WORST Reliability Case (Name and Sketch Below)

Network Option 2: Intermediate Reliability Case (Name and Sketch Below)

Network Option 3: Intermediate Reliability Case (Name and Sketch Below)

Network Option 4: BEST Reliability Case (Name and Sketch Below)

Please answer this question fully.

The Different types of Networks are: Series, Parallel, Series-Parallel, Parallel Series, K-Out-of-M, and Standby

You have four hard drives. Two of the drives have a failure rate of 1.75% (pf = 0.0175), and the other two have a failure rate of 2.5%. Assume that failures of the hard drives are independent events. (a) What is the probability of failure of your system? (b) Assuming that your quantities of 1.75% and 2.5% drives remain equal (that is, you have n 1.75% and n 2.5% drives), what is the minimum total number of hard drives your...
