CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 36

A technician needs to install a Type 1 hypervisor on a server. The server has SD card slots, a SAS controller, and a SATA controller, and it is attached to a NAS.
On which of the following drive types should the technician install the hypervisor?

Answer options

• A. SD card
• B. NAS drive
• C. SATA drive
• D. SAS drive

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, SAS drive, as it offers better performance and reliability for running a hypervisor compared to the other options. SD cards (A) are typically less durable and slower, while NAS drives (B) may introduce latency due to network connections. SATA drives (C) are also less optimal than SAS for virtualization workloads.
