CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question
A content creator is seeking to minimize video editing and export timings by upgrading their storage solutions on a custom-built PC. The existing motherboard has an M.2 slot available but it is not labeled with specific key notches. If the maximum potential speed for data transfer is desired, which storage device installation action is most advisable?
Install an M.2 NVMe solid-state drive with an M key to leverage PCIe lanes for high transfer speeds.
Use an adapter to fit an mSATA solid-state drive into the M.2 slot and attempt to leverage existing PCIe lanes.
Stage a non-NVMe M.2 solid-state drive in the motherboard slot, which uses SATA protocol for data transfer.
Go for an M.2 NVMe solid-state drive with a B key, to leverage potential NVMe support while assuming compatibility due to notch arrangement.
