RAID 10 array is often used for server virtualization as it provides both redundancy and performance benefits. It uses a combination of mirroring and striping to provide both fault tolerance and improved I/O performance. An optical disk drive or eMMC storage device would not provide enough storage or performance for a VM host server, while a 15,000rpm drive may provide good performance but would not provide redundancy for fault tolerance. Therefore, a RAID 10 array is the best option for cost-effective storage that will be used for all VMs that run from the server.

Three beeps indicate a "base memory read/write test error". Check out "beep codes" for more information.

Reseating the RAM is the best course of action to remediate the issue of three consecutive beeps during boot, as it may indicate a RAM failure or loose connection. By reseating the RAM, the technician can ensure that the connection is secure and the computer should boot normally. References: CompTIA A+ Certification Exam Objectives 1001, 1.9

The technician should restart the modem and run an online internet connection and speed diagnostic tool1. High latency is a common issue with satellite internet connections, and it can cause slow internet speeds2. Restarting the modem can help to resolve the issue1. The technician should also run an online internet connection and speed diagnostic tool to check the connection and speed1. Guiding the customer on how to upgrade the internet plan with the provider in order to improve latency is not likely to be the correct option2.

High latency while pinging can indicate a problem with the modem or the connection between the modem and the satellite. Restarting the modem can often resolve connectivity issues. Running an online internet connection and speed diagnostic tool can help identify any other issues with the connection. Upgrading the internet plan may not resolve latency issues and may not be necessary if the download test is performing perfectly with very good download speeds. High latency is not normal for satellite internet connections, so replacing the modem based on this one test result is premature. References: CompTIA A+ Certification Exam: Core 1 - Page 102

The main reason to use a virtual machine as a sandbox is to test new software in a safe environment without risking the integrity of the host operating system. Using a virtual machine enables the testing of software and allows for the isolation of the software from the host system. References: CompTIA A+ Certification Study Guide, Tenth Edition, pg. 409
