A company wants to use client-side virtualization for application testing. Which of the following configurations would best support this goal?

While the higher clock speed of 3.2GHz is beneficial, the single core limits the ability to perform multiple tasks concurrently, which is essential for virtualization. The large SSD storage is advantageous, but without the necessary cores, this configuration would struggle to support multiple applications effectively.

Although this setup includes a RAID configuration for redundancy and increased storage capacity, the only two cores may hinder performance when running multiple virtual machines. Additionally, HDDs are generally slower than SSDs, which could negatively impact the speed required for application testing.

This option has a good CPU with four cores and a high clock speed, but the limited RAM of 8GB may not suffice for effective virtualization, especially when running multiple applications. The 500GB HDD is also less desirable compared to an SSD due to slower read/write speeds, which could impede performance.
