A storage area network (SAN) is the type of network that the technician will be working with when adding more space to resolve the issue of all VMs being down due to the network being out of space.

A SAN is a network that provides access to consolidated and block-level data storage, which can be used for virtualization and backup purposes. SCSI is a type of interface that connects devices such as hard drives and optical drives to a computer. NAC is a type of security solution that controls access to a network based on policies and device compliance. WISP is a type of internet service provider that delivers wireless broadband access over long distances.

Checking if the password and SSID are correct is the best step that the technician should take to resolve the issue of a user being unable to access the SOHO wireless network after replacing the gateway. The new gateway may have a different password and SSID than the old one, which would prevent the user from connecting to the wireless network. The technician should verify that the user has entered the correct password and SSID for the new gateway. Assessing the network cables for damage, disabling Bluetooth connections, or updating the firmware are not likely to solve the issue, as they are not related to the wireless network authentication

Loading the hard disk drive (HDD) drivers using a flash drive is the most likely action that can fix the issue of a computer not being able to find the hard drive during an OS installation from Windows 7 to Windows 10. The HDD may have a different interface or controller than what Windows 10 supports by default, such as SATA or RAID, which would require loading additional drivers during the installation process. The technician can use a flash drive to load the drivers from another device or source. Changing the partition to MBR, upgrading the RAM modules, or replacing the hard drive are not likely to fix the issue, as they are not related to the HDD drivers

Updating the preferred roaming list (PRL) is what a user should do to resolve the issue of being unable to get personal cell phone service after traveling to another country. The PRL is a database that contains information about cell towers and frequencies that a phone can use in different areas.

Updating the PRL can improve the phone’s ability to connect to local networks and avoid roaming charges. CDMA is a type of cellular technology that uses code division multiple access to transmit data over radio frequencies. MDM is an acronym for mobile device management, which is a type of software solution that allows remote management and security of mobile devices. GPS is an acronym for global positioning system, which is a satellite-based navigation system that provides location and time information

The domain name system (DNS) is the component that houses the MX record. The MX record is a type of DNS record that specifies which mail server is responsible for receiving email messages for a domain name. VLAN is an acronym for virtual local area network, which is a logical subdivision of a network that allows devices to communicate as if they were on the same physical segment. DHCP is an acronym for dynamic host configuration protocol, which is a network protocol that assigns IP addresses and other configuration parameters to devices on a network automatically. SMTP is an acronym for simple mail transfer protocol, which is a network protocol that allows sending and receiving email messages over TCP/IP networks

Primary Array:

Drag and drop two 120 GB SSD hard drives to the primary array bay.

Open the primary array and select RAID 1 as the RAID level. RAID 1 provides fault tolerance of one drive, ability to function with only one drive, easily recoverable data, high redundancy, and very fast on reads. It also does not need to be scalable and uses the minimum number of drives (two) for RAID 1.

Confirm the configuration and close the primary array.

Secondary Array:

Drag and drop two 300 GB SSD hard drives to the secondary array bay.

Open the secondary array and select RAID 0 as the RAID level. RAID 0 provides the best write performance and uses the minimum number of drives (two) for RAID 0. It also provides a total space

of 600 GB (300 GB x 2), which meets the requirement.

Confirm the configuration and close the secondary array.

You have completed the configuration of the storage arrays.

Quad-channel memory architecture allows the CPU to access four memory modules simultaneously, increasing the memory bandwidth and performance. DDR4 RAM is a type of memory that has higher speed and lower power consumption than DDR3. SODIMM is a smaller form factor of memory that is typically used in laptops, not desktops. ECC RAM is a type of memory that can detect and correct errors, but it is more expensive and slower than non-ECC RAM. Triple-channel memory architecture is less common and less efficient than quad-channel.

Liquid cooling is a method of cooling the CPU by circulating a liquid through a closed loop that absorbs heat from the CPU and transfers it to a radiator. Liquid cooling is more effective and quieter than air cooling, which uses a fan and a heat sink. However, liquid cooling is also more expensive and complex to install. Upgrading the thermal paste, using a copper heat sink, or upgrading the CPU fan are ways to improve air cooling, but they will not lower the CPU temperature as much as liquid cooling.

NFC stands for near-field communication, which is a wireless technology that allows two devices to exchange data when they are in close proximity (usually within a few centimeters). NFC is commonly used by mobile devices to process payments at kiosks, such as Apple Pay or Google Pay. Wi-Fi 6 is a wireless standard that provides faster speed and lower latency than previous versions of Wi-Fi. Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows devices to communicate over short distances (usually within 10 meters). RFID stands for radio-frequency identification, which is a wireless technology that uses radio waves to identify and track objects that have RFID tags attached to them
