Chinese people live to eat

jinaun — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:35:59 +0800

QUOTE

There is an age old saying that Chinese people live to eat, or in Chinese “民以食为天.” I am Chinese and I can strongly attest to the claim–Chinese people live for the sole purpose of eating and stuffing ourselves silly with food, food, and more food. If Maslow were to create a Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs for Chinese people, it would look something like this…

Chinese Hierarchy of Food Needs(OK, that was just me trying to amuse you. It’s sad, but Level 5 is actually not a myth and some people–especially the wealthy–do eat them. But I will never EVER cross into Level 5.)

DFI Hybrid board (P45 + ION) in a single board

jinaun — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 22:16:01 +0800

QUOTE

What we got a look at today was a pre-production version of the Hybrid P45-ION-T2A2 motherboard. At first, we didn’t know exactly what to expect, when DFI called and asked us to come and visit and see its "hybrid motherboard". We know the term in modern times from cars and most things green, but when the word is added before motherboard, it really did get us thinking exactly what we should expect and what we would be getting a look at on our visit.

It turned out that DFI created a totally unique motherboard design that actually allows for two systems to run shared (KVM style) or fully independent of each other, on the one single board.

The left side of the system is built up of the components for the NVIDIA ION and Intel Atom platform. This part could be used as a low-power file server or torrent downloading system or even Blu-ray movie playback. And the right side of the board features the parts seen on a traditional P45 + Socket 775 CPU motherboard, which could be used for gaming, video editing or other intensive applications.

Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 Arrives for Free

jinaun — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:56:10 +0800

QUOTE

The final release of Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 (1541.1MB) has been posted on the Microsoft Download Center. This release of Microsoft's standalone virtualization server for small- and mid-sized business customers is a vast improvement over the first version. Here are a few of the new features the software giant is listing for R2:

* Support for physical computers with up to 8 physical processors
* Support for 64 logical processors and for running up to 384 virtual machines with up to 512 virtual processors
* Support for using up to 1TB of physical memory (virtual machines can use up to 64GB each)
* Support for clustering
* Support for live migration
* Support for CPU Core Parking, which allows Windows and Hyper-V to consolidate processing onto the fewest number of possible processor cores, and suspends inactive processor cores.
* Support for Second Level Address Translation (SLAT) in CPUs. On Intel processors this is called "EPT" while AMD calls it "NPT." SLAT adds a second level of paging below the architectural x86/x64 paging tables in x86/x64 processors, providing an indirection layer from virtual machine memory access to the physical memory access. In many virtualization scenarios, hardware based SLAT support can offer performance improvements.
* Support for VMQ, Chimney, Jumbo Frames and other networking enhancements
* The ability to hot add / remove SCSI virtual hard disks

The first version of Hyper-V arrived in June 2008, and just like that one, this release is free. For more information, check out Hyper-V's homepage on Microsoft.com as well as the detailed list of Supported Guest Operating Systems.

37.7 trillion hard drive RAID simulations

jinaun — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 23:49:42 +0800

QUOTE

I underestimated the amount of time to run 37.7 trillion hard drive simulations. It’s done now. I have to say this project has been a lot of fun but I am done with it. In case you are wondering what that number is exactly, it’s the average age of the array before failure (where the loop breaks) multiplied by the number of drives in the array (nested loop), multiplied by the 1,000,000 simulations of each configuration. Sum total of 2-64 for RAID 0 & 1, 3-64 for RAID 5 and 4-64 for RAID 6. I have to say that this simulation was rather eye opening and has improved my understanding for RAID as a tool for data redundancy.

[News] OCZ 1TB SSD (Colossus)

-YellowSn0w- — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 14:48:30 +0800

OCZ Technology Group Inc. said today it will release its Colossus solid-state drive (SSD) in the next couple of weeks, delivering the first 3.5-inch form factor SSD with 1TB of capacity.

The drive is aimed at external storage and desktop computing applications, and should be particularly attractive to gamers because of its high capacity and impressive performance.

Like OCZ's midrange, consumer-grade 2.5-inch Vertex SSD, the Colossus uses an Indilinx controller. But unlike the Vertex, the new Colossus drive comes with two or four controllers depending on the capacity, and can be configured for internal RAID 0 for increased performance.

OCZ said that each controller in the Colossus will act as a virtual drive, working with the other controllers through a separate RAID controller from Silicon Image Inc.

Using ATTO Disk Benchmarking software, in 1TB, four-controller configuration the Colossus has a maximum sequential read rate of 261MB/sec and a maximum sequential write rate of the same, OCZ says. Using the IOMeter benchmarking tool, the drive turned in 223MB/sec sequential read rate and 224MB/sec sequential write rate.
"The initial results we have tested show that the Colossus really excels in the small file random reads/writes," an OCZ spokeswoman said.

Bottom line on performance: No matter how you look at the numbers, this drive purportedly screams.

The Colossus will be available in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB capacities for $300, $650, $1200 and $2200, respectively.
The 128GB through 512GB models will have dual controllers and the 1TB version will come with four controllers.

QUOTE

"The old home-computing art of hacking elaborate graphics and camerawork into tiny amounts of memory has been lost, right? Not so. The demoscene is keeping ingenious coding skills alive, and TechRadar finds out the latest developments. Winner of the 4kb competition at 2009's Breakpoint party was RGBA's demo 'Elevated,' a gorgeous scrolling demo featuring photo realistic landscapes and music, which fits into the memory used by one of your PC's desktop icons. This is really impressive stuff."
