One scheduling note: the FAAA_004 exam is delivered Online proctored or onsite at authorized test centers — keep that in mind when choosing your session.

The FAAA_004 exam gives you 60-70 questions to complete within 90 minutes. That pacing is tighter than it looks on paper, and untimed practice will not reveal it. Rehearse with the ActualVCE Windows software or online engine in timed mode — repeating full-length mocks until your rhythm holds is what turns preparation time into passing margin.

Passing requires 700/1000, and official registration costs $150 USD. Remember the fee buys one attempt only — a retake is billed in full again. The budget-friendly approach is to measure yourself first: work through 62 practice questions at ActualVCE under timed conditions until you clear the passing mark consistently, and only then pay for the seat.

Recommended: 6+ months experience with Pure Storage products or enterprise storage environments; no mandatory prerequisites
