What is the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit memory?
Title : What is the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit memory?
32 bit memory is commonly known as ECC memory. It has an additional 8 bits for Error Correction Check 64 bit memory is non-ECC. 72 bit or 64 bit configuration are typically found in 168 pin DIMMs.
What Is A Firewall?
Firewall separates two networks. It allows certain things to go in and out. It can also allow certain packets from cetain hosts to goto certain places.
In even simpler terms, it controls what gets into the network and where it can go and it also can control outgoing traffic.In places where there are people who are very concerned with security, place firewall between internal network and external network to make sure they don’t get hit by spammers/hackers from outside
What is the difference between 3.3V and 5V Memory?
Title hat is the difference between 3.3V and 5V Memory?
Some systems require 3.3-volt modules, and others require 5-volt modules. The two are not interchangeable, and the different modules actually have slightly different notches so that you won’t accidentally install a 5V part in a 3.3V slot or vice versa.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of using SCSI?
Title : What are the advantages/disadvantages of using SCSI?
Advantages:
1. SCSI can handle a wide variety of devices: hard drives, scanners, plotters, CD drives, and the list goes on.
1. SCSI can handle a wide variety of devices: hard drives, scanners, plotters, CD drives, and the list goes on.
2. A SCSI controller can communicate with up to 7 or 15 devices depending on the version. I am sure work is being done to add more.
3. It is often easier to install and setup a SCSI device than with many other device interfaces.
4. SCSI controllers and devices are intelligent, they have microcontrollers, if not full blown processors, inside them. They do not require software-base contoller drivers like some Windows devices, putting less load on the CPU. 5. SCSI has proven itself to be a good platform for moving and storing large amounts of data. Recent developments with SCSI have focused on exploiting this feature even further.
6. Newer SCSI devices and controllers are supposed to be backward compatible with older SCSI devices and contollers. (from my own personal experience, this is about 95% true)
7. Recent SCSI contoller and devices currently offer the highest through-put for any peripheral connection scheme currently available.
8. SCSI drives are, on the whole, more reliable than ATA/IDE drives.
Disadavntages:
1. SCSI drives are not cheap.
2. There are at least a dozen different versions of SCSI: narrow, wide,…
What is EDO Memory?
What is EDO Memory? Extended Data-Out (EDO)
is one of the newest DRAM chip technology which improves memory performance 10 to 15% over equivalent Fast Page Mode devices. Computer systems must be designed to take advantage of this performance increase EDO offers.
My Hard-Drive Is Getting Very Hot, What Can I Do?
My Hard-Drive Is Getting Very Hot, What Can I Do? You can buy special fans for hard-drives,
This will help extract the heat from the drive. You can also download special monitoring software to monitor the tempreature of the hard-drive
What is a SIMM?
What is a SIMM? A Single In-line Memory Module or SIMM is a small printed circuit board containing memory chips
(DRAMs). Most SIMMs have 30 or 72 pins (which are actually printed circuit contacts and not pins). 30-pin SIMMs come in 8-bit (non-parity) or 9-bit (parity). 72-pin SIMMs are generally available in 32-bit (non-parity) or 36-bit (parity) configurations.
