2.

Exceeding the minimum requirements makes your server more scalable and able to meet increased requirements as the organization grows.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Exceeding the minimum requirements for a server means that it is built with additional resources and capabilities. This allows the server to handle higher workloads and accommodate increased demands as the organization grows. By having a more scalable server, the organization can easily adapt to changing needs without the need for frequent upgrades or replacements. Therefore, the statement "Exceeding the minimum requirements makes your server more scalable and able to meet increased requirements as the organization grows" is true.

Device drivers that are unsigned can also be loaded in x64 versions of Windows Server 2008.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Unsigned device drivers cannot be loaded in x64 versions of Windows Server 2008. This is because x64 versions of Windows Server 2008 only allow the loading of digitally signed device drivers. Unsigned drivers pose a security risk as they have not been verified by Microsoft, and therefore the operating system does not allow their installation or loading.

7.

Memory activities performed through virtual memory are as fast as those performed in RAM.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The statement is false because memory activities performed through virtual memory are not as fast as those performed in RAM. Virtual memory is a technique used by operating systems to extend the available memory by using a portion of the hard disk as additional memory. Accessing data from virtual memory involves transferring data between RAM and the hard disk, which is slower compared to accessing data directly from RAM. Therefore, memory activities performed in virtual memory are slower than those performed in RAM.

Virtual memory works through a technique called ____, whereby blocks of information, called pages, are moved from RAM into virtual memory on disk.
- Memoring
- Segmenting
- Blocking
- Paging
Correct Answer

A. Paging

Explanation

Virtual memory works through a technique called paging, whereby blocks of information, called pages, are moved from RAM into virtual memory on disk. This allows the operating system to free up physical memory by storing less frequently accessed pages on disk, and bringing them back into RAM when they are needed. Paging helps in managing memory efficiently and allows for larger programs to run on systems with limited physical memory.
