Question

Difficulty: EasyMobile Device Hardware and Display Issues

A technician is preparing to upgrade the system memory on a corporate laptop. Which memory module form factor is specifically designed for use in laptop computers?

  1. Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module (SO-DIMM)Answer
  2. B
    Standard Dual In-line Memory Module (DIMM)
  3. C
    High-voltage fluorescent inverter module
  4. D
    International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) chip

Answer

Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module (SO-DIMM)
Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Modules (SO-DIMMs) are specifically manufactured for laptops, 2-in-1 devices, and small form factor PCs because their reduced physical footprint allows them to fit inside compact mobile chassis.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the target device type needing a memory upgrade.
The target device is a laptop computer.
Laptops require compact hardware components due to tight internal spatial constraints.
2
Determine the appropriate memory module form factor designed for laptop space specifications.
SO-DIMM modules are approximately half the length of desktop RAM modules.
SO-DIMM (Small Outline DIMM) provides full RAM performance in a smaller footprint suitable for mobile computers.
