A technician is upgrading the memory in an ultrabook laptop to improve its multi-tasking capabilities. Which type of memory module should the technician select for this scenario?
The correct answer is 'Small outline dual inline memory module (SODIMM)' because ultrabook laptops require a smaller form factor RAM for their compact design. SODIMM modules are specifically designed to fit into the tight spaces of portable devices like laptops and ultrabooks. 'Double Data Rate 4 (DDR4)' refers to the generation and technology of the RAM, not its physical form factor. While the laptop may use DDR4, SODIMM is the correct module type. 'Error correction code (ECC) RAM' is a special type of memory used in servers and workstations to prevent data corruption; it is not typically supported by consumer devices like ultrabooks. 'Dual-channel' describes how the motherboard accesses memory to increase performance and is a configuration determined by the motherboard's capabilities, not a physical type of memory module.
