I really like the stuff gleaned from IMFT's Utah facility and 3D XPoint.

What capacity was the 750 in this test? I couldn't tell because it looked like only a small partition of it showed up on Windows.

Salted_Pork posted:i bought a Samsung 950 Pro m. 2 nvme, like the filthy consumerist whore i am, and I'm dual booting ubuntu and windows off it. It's in a Gigabyte Z170n-wifi, and after i select windows from the grub, theres a few seconds where a leading sign runs, and then windows boots almost immediately. I'm thinking of getting a ASUS Z170i Pro Gaming because it will give me more power to OC my i5 6600k. It has m.2 PCIE so it's compatible with my Samsung 950, but does anyone have any empirical evidence over how fast it POSTs, and how well it will behave with my drive?

Yeah unless the 950 Pro you got was on sale you might want to cancel that order if you still can

BIG HEADLINE posted:Speaking of fast storage, Optane v1.0 seems kind of underwhelming: http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/intel-optane-products-to-be-offered-in-16gb-and-32-gb-3d-xpoint-storage.html The difference in performance may not be readily apparent at first and may need to be measured on the axis of latency at some point. I know it's a "1.0" kind of product and could only have gotten so far (System accelerator 2.0 will be over PCIe3 x4 lanes), but I don't expect IMFT to sell something absolutely 100% snake oil right off the bat. It'd make a poor first impression. ... Said the guy with the Broadwell-C machine

redeyes posted:Samsung has new MicroSD cards that have UFS tech which is basically SSD speeds in a MicroSD. I'd definitely get one of those when they become available. Uhhhhhh don't you need a USB adapter that can use the UFS standard and a USB port that can handle the throughput (which the surface does have)????

It does, but then that card reader has to support UFS as well

td4guy posted:Look closely. UFS is a different form factor than microSD. A UFS card will not fit in a microSD slot. That's also incorrect. A UFS microSD card is backwards compatible with microSD card readers. No form factor difference between this: and this: The real difference is the extra flush contacts on the back for card readers with UFS-compatible pins.

Because I thought you were all talking about UHS-I (which Samsung has also made microSD cards for) or UHS-II and not UFS The key term in the article there is quote:new microSD-like card Not "new microSD card" I need to find a new way to play off my ignorance as humorous or anything remotely worth reading Sidesaddle Cavalry fucked around with this message at 03:53 on Apr 3, 2017 |

While we're wary of how Optane marries users to the Intel ecosystem, how well are the alternatives doing? Is Samsung, for example, optimistic enough about their first-generation Z-NAND performance to take the crown? Or is it something like an interim technology in an attempt to prevent Intel from getting too many years ahead on that

codo27 posted:The apple ecosystem is basically the same as smoking. You make the fatal error of starting in the first place, then you continue to be punished with each purchase. It's worse, because you're coached to blame yourself for a product breaking or not meeting your needs, and the real causes of dissatisfaction are much easier to hide than the surgeon general's reports of poisons in tobacco brand cults are fun

I mean, to be fair, it is as simple to quit as not buying a thing. But for some people, the feeling of inadequacy from not keeping up with the latest fashions can be crippling
