About the Flashcards

Flashcards for the CompTIA A+ exam provide a compact review of core IT acronyms and essential system terms. The set emphasizes hardware components (CPU, BIOS, HDD, NIC), memory technologies (RAM, DRAM, SDRAM, DDR), and storage and file system vocabulary (IDE, MBR, FAT, NTFS) so students can quickly recall definitions under exam conditions.

It also reviews networking protocols and concepts (IP, DHCP, DNS, NAT, LAN, WAN, WLAN, MAN, ISP, APIPA, ICMP, NETBIOS), security and access-control basics (ACL, DAC, EFS, DMZ, DDOS), and common interfaces (VGA, DVI, IEEE). Use the cards to drill terminology, match abbreviations to full names, and strengthen quick recognition of key ideas likely tested on the exam.

Topics covered in this flashcard deck:

  • Networking protocols
  • Memory types
  • Storage and filesystems
  • Core hardware components
  • Security and access control
  • Display connectors and interfaces
