Local Resources: Sound—Sound is configurable in three ways. Sound can either be left
at the remote computer so it plays at the source (the host). This probably would not be
done, since the hosts are in the data center. The other two options are to ignore sound, or to
redirect sound to the I/Port. This last option provides the highest quality experience but
also requires additional bandwidth.
If the user has limited bandwidth and does not require sound, this option can be
turned off.
Note:
RDP only supports audio out (i.e., from the host to the I/Port) so speakers connected
to an I/Port can play sound generated by the host. However, audio in (i.e., from the
I/Port to the host) isn't supported by RDP so audio devices such as microphones
cannot transmit back to the host.

Local Resources: Devices – RDP allows local disk drives, printers, and serial ports to be
redirected. Again, these require additional bandwidth. Large quantities of writes and reads
from local disks can adversely impact the performance of the RDP session.
