Free 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?

  • Add an 8GB module to the free slot to maximize the system memory to 12GB, despite any differences in module size.

  • Replace the present module with a single 8GB module to avoid any potential compatibility issues while upgrading the overall memory capacity.

  • Install another module with the same specifications as the existing one, making sure both have equal capacity and speed to activate dual-channel operation.

  • Insert two new modules with different capacities, splitting the total memory across slots for perceived multitasking improvements.
