SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is an interface type that supports high-speed data transfer and high-performance hard drives, such as 15,000rpm drives. SAS drives are commonly used in servers that require fast access and reliability. IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics), eSATA (external SATA), and SATA (Serial ATA) are not suitable for 15,000rpm drives, as they have lower speed and performance.

A type II hypervisor is a software application that runs on top of a host operating system and creates virtual machines that are isolated from the host. A type II hypervisor provides the highest level of isolation from the host operating system because it does not have direct access to the hardware resources and relies on the host operating system for drivers and services. A type II hypervisor also allows the guest operating systems to run different types of operating systems than the host.

Ac stands for 802.11ac, which is a wireless networking standard that operates in the 5 GHz frequency band and offers a maximum data rate of 1.3 Gbps. 802.11ac is also backward compatible with 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n standards. If a technician wants to install a WAP (wireless access point) in the company break room that has a rating of higher than 50 Mbps and minimal range to avoid interference with other access points, they should select the 802.11ac standard.
