What are the largest memories of a PC?

For RAM, what characteristic can I change?

Why does the hard drive slow down when writing or reading in the paging file?

  1. because the ram has run out.
  2. because it is subjected to light mechanical stresses
  3. because the ram is running out
  4. because it no longer uses the speed of the ram, but that of the hard drive, which is slower
  5. because it takes up space
  6. why does the fragmentation of large files occur into smaller files, arranged on different tracks? the read head then slows down when reading these scattered fragments in memory.
  7. why is the speed of the disk used and not that of the ram?
  8. because it behaves like a ram but is used only when the latter is full and there is too much information. as a result, the computer slows down
  9. saturated with information
  10. because the information is temporarily saved on the hard drive and therefore takes up space on the hard disk.

Which memory costs the least?

What does the rotational speed of a hard drive depend on?

  1. the rpm depends on the latency time.
  2. from the size of the disk
  3. from the diameter of the disk
  4. air
  5. from the diameter and from wear
  6. from the number of discs and from the diameter
  7. the diameter of the disk
  8. A
  9. from the sum of the seek time, the rotational latency time, and the transfer time.
  10. from the diameter: the larger it is, the lower the speed will be

Why are serial connections faster?

  1. because electrons travel in series, minimizing interference.
  2. because they are guaranteed by continuous cabling
  3. because the electromagnetic fields of electrons do not interfere with their passage, slowing them down
  4. because the bits arrive at the receiver sequentially, generating an electric/magnetic field lower than that generated by the parallel ide connections
  5. because electrons flow in buses one after the other and are not subject to interference from magnetic or electric fields like in ides.
  6. because the information (2-4 pins) arrives sequentially exerting a magnetic and electric field
  7. because there is a weaker electromagnetic repulsion experienced by electrons
  8. because the bits travel one after the other, without the electric and magnetic fields interfering with each other.
  9. because the movement of charges is not hindered by the interference of the magnetic field
  10. there is no interference from the electromagnetic fields of moving electrons

What are the best features of an SSD?

What does formatting mean?

  1. it means to delete the data.
  2. clean up all existing files
  3. delete the data
  4. prepare a storage unit to accommodate files by creating grooves in the disk
  5. create tracks by dividing them into sectors, with contiguous sectors forming clusters. the cluster is the minimum unit for file storage
  6. trace a segment, with the head on the hard disk, that is, save a file.
  7. to erase all of the data on the disk and prepare it for the usage of the computer
  8. restore to factory settings
  9. start writing information onto a blank hard drive, creating tracks, sectors, and clusters on each disk.
  10. create tracks and clusters on a memory
