B is right. VMware recommends keeping a minimum of 25-30% of the vSAN datastore free. This recommendation is in-line with other HCI deployments. vSAN slack space ensures that vSAN has adequate space to perform functions such as: • Maintenance mode data evacuation • Resynchronization after a service interruption • Application of a storage policy change that changes capacity needs • Standard background activities such as the balancing of data across drives Taken from vSAN 6.7 Deploy and Manage Lecture Manual - vSAN Slack Space
