Which of the following memory types is normally associated with the RAM in a desktop PC?

The correct answer is A. Non-ECC. Standard consumer desktop PCs use Non-ECC (non-error-correcting code) RAM, which is less expensive and sufficient for typical workloads where occasional undetected single-bit errors are acceptable. ROM (B) is read-only and not used as system RAM. SODIMM (C) is the smaller form…

Explanation

Standard consumer desktop PCs use Non-ECC (non-error-correcting code) RAM, which is less expensive and sufficient for typical workloads where occasional undetected single-bit errors are acceptable. ROM (B) is read-only and not used as system RAM. SODIMM (C) is the smaller form factor used in laptops, not standard desktops. ECC (D) memory is used in servers and workstations where data integrity is critical, and it requires a compatible motherboard and CPU.
