I was under the impression ssd and ram were physically similar in construction. Im going to assume i am incorrect from your response... :)

same as a Hyundai and a Ferrari are both cars...one is just a bit faster than the other.

Stats a couple years old but shoud be similar:

Read 1 MB sequentially from RAM     250,000   ns   
Read 1 MB sequentially from SSD     1,000,000   ns   
Read 1 MB sequentially from disk    20,000,000   ns 

 

so 4x slower. 

Ah thanks for that. Makes it a little clearer. Sometimes I oversimplify things in my mind (a lot if i'm completely honest).

And yep. I was thinking that they may have cut the RAM out completely. So in a way we are thinking the same thing, only you call it RAM i'm calling HD. 

In my mind it would simplify the mb design by removing the entire RAM connectors and the circuits to each... I would have expected this would also improve the access to the HD as it wouldn't sit behind the RAM for access. 

@emts, you don't hang around clifton hill / alphington at all do you?

I saw a red 66 just the other night while i was out for a walk.

The bloke came out and jumped into it as well so I got a look into the car.  It looked mint. 

so the other big diffrence is if RAM looses power it is wiped, SSD/HDD natrually do not.

 

So to get the speeds of RAM for storage you would need power at all times eg a battery back-up for the drive.

battery goes flat all storage is lost.

Am i the only one who thinks the Gti and R look soooo boring? It just seems like something an accountant who likes cars would buy.

Guy i bought my S14 off had just bought a Gti  and was an accountant.  so I'm going to go with yes.

these and the new Audi/MB with the fake back fire are my current list of annoying cars.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
