Which feature is new to the HP Z440 workstation since its predecessor?

The correct answer is C. All four front ports are USB 3.0, including a USB 3.0 charging port. Option C is correct because the HP Z440 introduced a fully upgraded front panel where all four USB ports are USB 3.0 - a meaningful improvement over its predecessor, the Z420, which had a mixed configuration of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports on the front.

Explanation

Option C is correct because the HP Z440 introduced a fully upgraded front panel where all four USB ports are USB 3.0 - a meaningful improvement over its predecessor, the Z420, which had a mixed configuration of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports on the front. The inclusion of a dedicated USB 3.0 charging port was also a new addition with the Z440. Option D is actually a description of the old behavior (the Z420's mixed port setup), making it a classic distractor that describes what was replaced, not what's new. Options A and B describe features that existed in predecessor Z-series workstations - single 3D GPU driving dual displays and dual-processor support were both available before the Z440.

Memory tip: Think "440 = all four USB 3.0" - the number 4 in Z440 can remind you that all 4 front ports became USB 3.0 with this model.
