What is the typical power consumption of an M.2 NVMe SSD? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

What is the typical power consumption of an M.2 NVMe SSD?
A. Less than 1 watt
B. About 5-10 watts
C. About 50 watts
D. About 20 watts
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
M.2 NVMe SSDs typically consume between 2-5 watts during active use, with idle power around 0.1-0.5 watts. Under heavy load, they may use up to 6-8 watts, but less than 1 watt is for low-power states. For general exam, they are known for low power.

Question #1
Which mathematical base forms the underlying structural logic of standard computer memory capacity measurements?
A. Base 16 (Hexadecimal)
B. Base 2 (Binary)
C. Base 10 (Decimal)
D. Base 8 (Octal)

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Computer systems process binary logic states (0 and 1). Thus, memory capacities naturally scale using powers of 2 (e.g., 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64).

Question #2
What is the function of an asset known as a 'Solid State Hybrid Drive' (SSHD)?
A. A conventional mechanical hard drive featuring a small integrated flash memory cache buffer.
B. A drive combining physical optical disc trays with flash memory chips.
C. A cloud backup server setup using physical tape media archives.
D. A memory unit that toggles between RAM and ROM modes on demand.

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
An SSHD combines a traditional high-capacity mechanical hard disk with a small amount of fast solid-state flash memory to cache frequently accessed files, blending capacity and speed.

Question #3
What is the main difference between SRAM and DRAM?
A. SRAM is non-volatile; DRAM is volatile
B. SRAM is slower than DRAM
C. SRAM needs refreshing; DRAM does not
D. SRAM uses flip-flops; DRAM uses capacitors

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
SRAM uses flip-flop circuits to store each bit, while DRAM uses a capacitor and a transistor. SRAM is faster and does not need refreshing, but is more expensive. Both are volatile.
