Explanation

For a hypervisor (virtualization host), the two most critical specifications are storage capacity and RAM. A large HDD (A) is necessary to store multiple virtual machine disk images. The amount of RAM (E - listed as 'RAW,' which is almost certainly a typo) is the single most important resource for virtualization, as each VM requires a dedicated memory allocation. The marked answers A and C appear to contain an error: graphic resolution (C) is essentially irrelevant to a hypervisor server, which typically has no display requirements beyond a basic console. The correct pair should be A (HDD size) and E (RAM). Speed of NIC (B), external storage (D), and a second NIC (F) are secondary considerations.
