CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question
A technician needs to upgrade a laptop that currently has 4GB of memory installed in one of its two available memory slots. The user has requested enhanced performance for better multitasking. Given that the laptop supports a memory configuration that allows for increased throughput when both memory slots are populated with matching modules, what should the technician do next?
Install another module with the same specifications as the existing one, making sure both have equal capacity and speed to activate dual-channel operation.
Replace the present module with a single 8GB module to avoid any potential compatibility issues while upgrading the overall memory capacity.
Insert two new modules with different capacities, splitting the total memory across slots for perceived multitasking improvements.
Add an 8GB module to the free slot to maximize the system memory to 12GB, despite any differences in module size.
