What does DIMM stand for?

  1. Digital In-line Memory Module

  2. Dual In-line Memory Module

  3. Direct In-line Memory Module

  4. Dual Integrated Memory Module

The correct answer is: Dual In-line Memory Module

DIMM stands for Dual In-line Memory Module. It is a type of computer memory module that can hold more data than single in-line memory modules (SIMMs). Option A (Digital In-line Memory Module) is incorrect because it refers to a non-existent technology. Option C (Direct In-line Memory Module) is incorrect because it does not accurately describe the purpose of a DIMM. Option D (Dual Integrated Memory Module) is incorrect because it combines the incorrect terminology from options B and C.
