Maybe you are using the wrong M.2 because if you look back on that page for Aorus 7 if the third M2 is used with NVMe it will disable SATA ports. (It is possible for an M2 on that X299 to disable SATA.....but just not on the first two M2 when a NVMe is installed.) That is true.....but it is...

Here is a page from the Gigabyte Aorus X299 Gaming 7 manual: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/X299-AORUS-Gaming-7-rev-10/support#support-manual https://d2aw00qtgn0pb6.cloudfront.net/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_ga-x299-aorus-gaming-7_e.pdf So no SATA ports affected by NVMe in...

The redundancy plus the fact they are using chiplets (via Foveros and EMIB) should let them make a relatively high amount of high end dGPGPUs. Boosted cache size as well? https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0141933116000053

That is first time I have heard occupying M2_1 with NVMe disabling SATA ports. What boards are these?

Using 16GB optane and a NVMe NAND SSD in M2_1 and M2_2 of a motherboard with supported chipset should result in four SATA ports. Example below: (The above chart taken from page 33 of the MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon Manual --->...

Maybe instead of increasing clockspeed further Intel will be able to bring the data closer to the CPU boosting IPC (as well as reduce the need for speculative execution....which improves security among other things.) And then to go along with that there will also be very efficient transistors...

IBM has been working on this: https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2017/08/beat-heat-3d-chip-stacks-icecool/

If 512 EU is 260mm2 then 1024 EU at 520 mm2? And how many EUs could the GPU be if the cache, display/media and memory controllers were removed from the die and positioned underneath via Foveros?

Thank you for the information. Do you happen to know how many chip enablers the new 12 channel controller has? EDIT: Tom's is reporting 4 chip enablers per channel (which would work out to be 48 chip enablers*), but then they are also mentioning the new controller is more scalable than...

If the top die for 3rd Gen IMFT is indeed 96L 16nm 2048Gb 3D QLC (1536Gb 3D TLC) that means per GB parallelism would be lower than the 64L 20nm 1024Gb 3D QLC. With the current 32TB Long ruler form factor SSD likely have two NAND dies per chip enabler for a write speed of 1800 MB/s.....does a...

Hypothetically by having Optane in front of NAND it would allow the NAND to be developed more for capacity rather than endurance. Think Optane + 16nm 3D QLC vs. 20nm 3D QLC. (Ideally the Optane would also write directly to QLC rather first to SLC NAND. This would reduce power consumption and...

Laptops at Best Buy with Optane H10: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&iht=y&keys=keys&ks=960&list=n&sc=Global&st=intel optane h10&type=page&usc=All Categories (7 of the 10 listing use the 512GB and 3 of the 10 listings use the 1TB.) Looking at the HP...

Would be interesting to also see load times (with and without Optane cache) where hard drives were filled 75% to capacity (maybe 90% to capacity as well) before installing the benchmark.

I use Primocache too. Works great. AMD StoreMI also works, but there are at least two things to consider: 1. 16GB Optane is a very small capacity for software (auto-tiering) that moves blocks rather than copying them. Changing the read I/O promotion to slow should help but I am still concerned...

Noticing on ebay 16GB Optane (both used and New pull) are available for under $12 shipped. Seems like a really good opportunity for those with more than one M.2 NVMe slot and a supported chipset. EDIT: Some Game load time results below from the following Tweaktown review...

First time I have seen a Core i3 below $100 in a while: https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-i3-9th-gen-core-i3-9100f/p/N82E16819118072 According to PC partpicker it has been as low as $89.99 FS...

Don't forget about ODI. This should allow a GPU built with many small or medium size dies to operate essentially as a "larger than reticle" monolithic die.

Yes, I did know that was what you were referring to. Sorry for the confusion. I have should have wrote despite Xeon-AP being not being able to pair DRAM DIMMs 1:1 with Optane DC PMM it is still possible to achieve the Intel recommended ratio of 1GB DRAM to 8GB Optane if enough HBM2 is present.

8 x 24GB HBM2 + 12 x 128GB Optane DIMMs for workloads that are more predictable vs. 12 x 128GB RDIMMs for workloads that are more random? vs. 8 x 16GB (or 24GB) HBM2 + 12 x 128GB RDIMMs for workloads that vary from predictable to random?

Intel mentions 1 part DRAM to eight parts Optane as the recommended ratio for Memory Mode: https://software.intel.com/en-us/videos/configuring-intel-optane-dc-persistent-memory-for-best-performance 8 x 24GB HBM2 would be enough to cover 12 x 128GB Optane DIMMs.

So instead of four channels with eight DIMM slots (supporting FB-DIMMs) they went four channels with sixteen DIMM slots (not supporting FB-DIMM). Lowered price per GB at the cost of density. With these Xeon-AP Servers I do wonder how much memory they have (on average)? I wouldn't be suprised if...

Upgrade me to a #Seagate #Ironwolf SSD for my unRAID Server so I can use as cache. With this noted, I would rather see this SSD being used by someone in an all flash array.

Yes, It isn't. Looking at the sleds below the main focus appears to be compute density: P.S. Interestingly enough RDIMM price per GB doesn't increase until the 128GB capacity (128GB RDIMM is ~4x more expensive than a 64GB RDIMM). 24 x 128GB RDIMMs is about $14,500 more expensive than 24 x...

Or maybe allow the option of Optane DIMMs? (8 x 24GB HBM stacks + up to 6TB of Optane DIMMs per socket vs. 8 x 24GB HBM stacks + DRAM DIMMs)

Yes, 2TB and 1TB 660p are both rated at 1800 MB/s Sequential write but this is SLC cache Speed. P.S. One reason I decided to revisit this topic is because I am interested in Intel's 32GB 3D QLC Long ruler SSD's (which uses the same NAND as 660p, but with a (likely) 18 channel controller instead...

My guess is six months.

https://www.dramexchange.com/WeeklyResearch/Post/2/7289.html ^^^ According to that I would hold off on any plans to stockpile in 2019 (and 2020).

One Wildcard I am wondering about: YMTC NAND

For anyone concerned about using SMR with RAID-5.......All the Iron Wolf use CMR. However, It is disappointing to see that only the 6TB (and higher capacity) Iron Wolf have the URE 1^15. (4TB and below has URE 1^14). Perhaps this will change over time as Seagate updates their products?

Very interesting that with AMD EPYC Server OEMs can increase long ruler SSDs per 2U by 68%: https://www.anandtech.com/show/14493/spotted-at-computex-an-amd-epycbased-system-with-108-intels-ruler-ssds It accomplishes this by using the back of the server to mount long ruler SSDs: (I reckon...

The author of that article thinks it might be the firmware..... Here is what Synology says about SMR: https://originwww.synology.com/en-us/knowledgebase/DSM/tutorial/Storage/PMR_SMR_hard_disk_drives (With the new Barracuda Drives being having a URE spec increase I do wonder how well the...

CMR.

These are SMR drives. However, one really good thing Seagate did was boost the URE spec---> http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/wow-surprised-at-ure-rating-on-newer-non-pro-barracuda-and-non-pro-iron-wolf-drives.2563113/ (I am thinking of using these to build a performance oriented RAID-5...

Yes, gaming at the moment does not benefit from extra bandwidth (faster 4K QD1 Read yes....but not extra bandwidth). I'm guessing it will take a while for extra bandwidth to matter in gaming (probably first PC games to benefit will be PS5 ports)...

So with Intel/Micron using 16nm 3D NAND perhaps 14nm for 3D NAND is next for either Intel or Micron? This initially for TLC and then eventually QLC when enough controller ECC and/or 3DXpoint integration is available? NOTE: For Planar NAND IMFT stopped at 16nm, but SK Hynix and Samsung did go...
