CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 443

A desktop technician is helping a customer choose a laptop configuration for the customer's child. The child will use the computer primarily for school-related activities, and the computer should be as inexpensive as possible. Which of the following disk configurations should the technician suggest to the customer?

Answer options

• A. RAID
• B. eMMC
• C. HDD
• D. NVMe

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is eMMC, as it is a cost-effective storage solution suitable for basic tasks like schoolwork. RAID and NVMe are generally more expensive and designed for higher-performance needs, while HDDs, although cheaper than NVMe, are typically slower and bulkier compared to eMMC, making them less ideal for a budget-friendly laptop configuration.
