Question 488

A customer's laptop is making clicking sounds in the area where non-volatile storage is installed. A technician examines the laptop and confirms the issue. Which of the following is the most appropriate replacement part?

    Correct Answer: B

    If a customer's laptop is making clicking sounds in the area where non-volatile storage is installed, it likely indicates a failing hard disk drive (HDD). The most appropriate replacement part would be an NVMe SSD. NVMe SSDs (Non-Volatile Memory Express Solid State Drives) are suitable for laptops due to their reliability, speed, and absence of moving parts, which eliminates the risk of mechanical failure and clicking sounds. Additionally, they provide a significant performance upgrade compared to traditional HDDs.

lara400Option: D

Nope - read the question guys. Its asking about replacement parts. The HDD has failed, bro takes it out and if he were to get a NVMe or SSD where is he going to put it? The guy has a dodgy HDD so they have to replace the HDD on the same connector as the one they just took out. Hence I would say either A or D. In this case its probably D as its SCSI that is making the noise since its much older.

carlito101Option: A

The replacement part is an HDD, which means A or D. However it is a laptop. A SCSI 15000 rpm HDD is best suited for a server. Hence, I believe the correct answer is A. 7200 rpm HDD
