The E20-580 exam, officially titled Storage management specialist exam, is the EMC exam you pass to earn the EMC Specialist - Storage Management Specialist certification, a credential at the Specialist level. Passing it confirms the skills defined in the official exam outline, and it is associated with related credentials such as EMC Proven Professional, Associate - Information Storage and Management.

The E20-580 exam includes 60-114 questions and gives you 90 minutes to finish them. That is a tight pace per question, so get used to reading each stem once, flagging anything uncertain, and moving on rather than getting stuck. Running timed practice tests in the ActualTestsIT desktop or online test engine is the most reliable way to build that rhythm before exam day.

The passing score for the E20-580 exam is 63%, and the official registration fee is $200 USD. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying $200 USD again in full to retake it, so book your slot only when your scores on ActualTestsIT practice tests sit consistently above the passing line.
