CompTIA A+ Computer Hardware Exam Sample Test
Settings
Test your knowledge of the bus speed of different devices and cable systems. This test will cover the knowledge for all of the exams for CompTIA A+. It can also be used as a learning tool because the more you take it, the more you will be able to memorize, rather than sitting there looking at a piece of paper. I hope this helps everyone with their preparation for their exams.
