Explanation:
A virtual machine uses virtual SCSI controllers to access virtual disks. Whether or not the virtual disk is an IDE or SCSI disk, it is unaffected by the choice of SCSI controller. Based on the guest operating system that is selected on the Guest Operating System pane, the wizard preselects the appropriate default controller. However, selecting the SCSI adapter type is still the administrator’s responsibility.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The wizard preselects the appropriate default controller based on the guest operating system, which can be changed.
C: The wizard preselects the appropriate default controller based on the guest operating system, which can be changed during the deployment process.
D: The wizard preselects the appropriate default controller based on the guest operating system.
