Explanation of Solution
Given: A Lenovo IdeaPad N580 laptop with a faulty hard drive and a Toshiba MK8009GAH 80-GB 4200-RPM drive
To find: Whether the faulty drive can be replaced with the Toshiba drive or not.
Solution:
A Lenovo IdeaPad N580 has 2.5-inch SATA hard drive, whereas a Toshiba MK8009GAH has a form factor of 1.8 inches and has a UDMA interface.
Hence, option (d) is correct as neither the form factor nor the interface matches.

- The four DIMMs on a dual-channel motherboard are all different sizes. There are four sizes available on the motherboard. Do these DIMMs work with the motherboard? Do you have dual-channel support?  Because you have two RAM slots and two 2 GB DIMMs, your motherboard supports dual channelling. Put in 4GB of memory. Is it faster to use one 4GB DIMM or two 2GB DIMMs? What do you think?arrow_forwardIndicate the quantity and kind of expansion slots present on a motherboard. Is the P1 connection on the board 20 pins or 24 pins? Can you tell me about the board's additional power jacks? Does anybody know how many memory slots this board has?arrow_forwardYour great-aunt and -uncle have given you a new computer monitor as a considerate gift. If you've ever tried to hook up a monitor to a computer only to realize that none of the ports on the back of your device are compatible with the connector at the end of the cable, you know the feeling.

- Input sought on the following. The motherboard's dual-channel architecture makes room for four different DIMM sizes. The motherboard supports all four of these formats. Do these DIMMs work with the motherboard? Will dual-channel support be available?Since you have 4 GB of RAM total (two 2 GB modules), your motherboard should support dual channelling. You've made the choice to install an extra 4GB of memory. To maximise performance, you should install either one 4GB DIMM or two 2GB DIMMs. Defend your stance.arrow_forwardYour aunt and uncle would want to express their gratitude to you by gifting you a brand-new computer display. None of the ports on the back of your computer will accept a connection from the display since the monitor is incompatible with any of those ports. What do you have planned for yourself in the next years?arrow_forwardFor your optical drive, which read capabilities does the drive support?
