CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 286

A technician is building a SOHO server that will be used to run a business-critical application for a small business.
Which of the following RAM types should the technician install?

Answer options

• A. Error correcting
• B. Triple channel
• C. Unbuffered memory
• D. Non-parity

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Error correcting RAM (ECC) is essential for business-critical applications as it detects and corrects data corruption, ensuring system stability and reliability. Triple channel and unbuffered memory do not provide the same level of error correction, while non-parity RAM lacks the error detection capabilities necessary for critical applications.
