Physical to Virtual is referring back to Physical Clones, 2 sections back on the same page. This page contains the first mentions of physically cloning drives, then when expanding on the topic appears to berate the user for not understanding the material.

I’m pretty sure this book is AI slop. There are several instances where the material is just thrown onto the page and not properly organized.

    I agree. Some of those are vaguely correct, others you have to squint really hard for it to make sense, some are just made up mishmash. Discard that source and find a better one.

        I don’t want to steer you wrong. My CompTIA Server+ cert is probably 20 years old now (My A+ cert is 30 years old this year!). 15 to 20 years ago I used the Sybex books and I always found them a good source for cert study. It looks like you’re reading today’s Sybex book. So they’ve gone downhill. I’ll let others chime in with more recent experience.

        If you have any IT questions you need answers for I’d be happy to help for your study.
