5.0 out of 5 stars
Seems to have the makings of a good guide!,
By
This review is from: Server+ Certification Exam Cram (Exam SKO-002) (Paperback)
Exam Crams are always useful and go into sufficient depth provided that you have a good grounding in the technology behind the Exam Topics. At this time apart from courses and "googleing" the net this is the only collected study guide I know of for the Server+ 2005 Exam....more to follow no doubt?
If you have a couple of years under your belt with servers I'd say that this guide will get you through. If not you really need a bit more backround reading. Hewlett Packard do a number of online and downloadable courses. Their technologies relate quite a bit to the Server+ exam objectives and they also have a book HP Proliant Servers AIS study guide ISBN 0131467174 and available from this site. This may help to fill in the gaps. I would also presume that you had taken and passed CompTIA's A+ exam and either CompTIA's Network+ or Prosofts TIA Convergence Technology Professional or at least the first exam in Cisco's CCNA qualification (Exam #640-821). Again all the study books and sources are availble from this web site. PC architecture and network related matters are really a must for Server+. I have also found that as a supplement to Server+ and complimentary are the SNIA SCP (#S10-100) and SCSE (#S10-200) Storeage Area Network exams and qualifications. Their site www.snia.org has a mass of information on matters that the Server+ exam is heavy on i.e SCSI and backups and their are several recommended books available again on this site. On the whole if you are familiar with the Exam Cram 2 format then go ahead and cram, book the exam and pass, at the time of writing there are a number of Exam price "deals" to encourage you to take the exam and if you use the HP study stuff as well you should also be prepared for two cheap HP Exams for HP ASP and HP AIS Certifications as well not forgetting SNIA. The makings and start of a good career I think! Best of luck! *******Please Note This Edit***********on 23rd February 2006 The above reviewer like many others on technical books DID NOT read this cram properly. Fire surpression (Halon etc) is covered in this book page 476 and in index. I have the Official Course Books too and they cover that subject as much as this cram, little difference. One can understand the dissapointment of getting a low score in exams however a bad workman blames his tools and prehaps a little more attention to detail would have produced a better score and a more accurate review. A lesson for us all!

2007 Question batch more sophisticated.,
By Glenntech "Glenn-Tech" (Washington D.C.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Server+ Certification Exam Cram (Exam SKO-002) (Paperback)
A good book for introduction to Server + concepts, but is poorly edited for the test objectives. The book offers too little information on troubleshooting fault tolerance. The 2007 exam I took was far from the material covered in the 700+page book. The 300+ questions in this book were way to easy and simple than the ones you will face. Many of the questions on the real exam have more than 2 answers. Some questions had 5 answers! The questions resembled Microsoft style paragraph type questions. I got a heavy dose of RAID 1,0+1,1+0, and RAID 5. Multiple drive sizes and space requirement arithmetic questions! Many questions on "if you add this adapter..blah.blah..why can the PC boot after POST? Know NIC adapter teaming,upgrading adapters and definitely learn UPS! This book was very insufficient for detail and preparing you the real exam. The worst thing was the questions that came with the book--they are too easy. I study the material/book for about 1 month and a half. I also concentrated on SCSI, which I didn't get much of on the exam. I have some server experience.
I failed with a 580, needing 615. I am already certified A+, Network+, Security+, and i-Net+. (Sybex is the best, but they don't make a Server+ book) I guess I will study older books and use Wikiopedia. The test isn't hard, I just didn't use enough resources. I won't buy anything Exam Cram again. This is yet another experience with Exam Cram. I failed using the EXAM CRAM series....I failed MCP 70-271 twice using Exam cram books. With Sybex, I pass the first time and always with a high score! This book deserves 1 star to match the 2007 test.

An editor, my kingdom for an editor...,
By
This review is from: Server+ Certification Exam Cram (Exam SKO-002) (Paperback)
The Exam Cram and Exam Cram 2 series are excellent sources for the information you need to pass your exams. THIS book has all of the relevant information that you will need to pass the exam. However, it's the worst laid out book I have ever seen. While it tried to conform to the usual format of the Exam Cram series. It fails in one very important aspect. The editing is nearly non-existent. The book covers a topic in one paragraph and then turns around and goes over the exact same subject again 2 paragraphs later. It looks to me as though when it was updated from the older version of the exam things were added and nothing was removed. Any editor looking at this book would have a kitten. As I have explained it to some of my friends, "they have problem repeating their repetition problem."
