Selected Answer: C

With the existing data link the transfer takes ~ 600 days in the best case. Thus, (A) and (B) are not applicable. Solution (D) could meet the target with a transfer time of 6 days, but the lead time for the direct connect deployment can take weeks! Thus, (C) is the only valid solution.
