A technician is tasked with upgrading the RAM in a laptop. Which of the following is the MOST important factor the technician should consider to ensure compatibility?

The most important factor that the technician should consider is the type and speed of the RAM supported by the laptop's motherboard. RAM modules can vary by their standard, such as DDR3 or DDR4, and their speed, measured in MHz. Using a module that is not supported by the motherboard can either lead to suboptimal performance or, more likely, the laptop will not function with the incompatible RAM installed.
