IDE/SCSI bus transfer rates

again to go back to the original question that subflava posted. it seems that you're having a bit of difficulty grasping the concept that multiple devices can share the bus concurrently. now, before we get into arguements about concurrency, multiplexing, synch v asynch, burst, consider the...

IDE/SCSI bus transfer rates

wow, i was momentarily speechless << ucla and others, there is no multiplexing going on with SCSI. >> peter scsi transfer is synchonous. in a general sense multiple signals sharing the same line on a synchronous bus can be considered a form of time division multiplexing at least...

Is ECC RAM worth it?

pm is right on target with a well written response. parity (and it's successor, ecc) used to be the rule in pc's. most other subsystems in your pc have error checking, and in what was basically a cost cutting move, the extra bit was dumped by the manufacturers. and this was given the spin...

Memory Prices Final?

i think it is extraordinarily hard to predict the course of memory prices. the reality is that memory prices have been artificially low for quite some time now, and will likely gradually increase over the course of the next couple of years. most memory makers are barely turning a profit, and...

Matrox was best. Now bs.

news flash, matrox isn't a gamer's card. really, it's a wasted review--we all know matrox cards are not good at gaming benchmarks. i'm sure the reviewer knew it, but did it anyway. fwiw i'm using one of the g200 quads now and it's a very interesting card in that it has 4 full fledged g200...
