But going back a bit.

I dont get why you guys always do this.

 
Do I mention anything about compiling? I say your HDD performance has nothing to do with your ingame FPS.


Let me restate this, just incase you dont realize how obsurd this is.


You know, a slow HDD also makes your things transfer slower   :o :o :o :o :o :o


All of you do this, lol coolz rants about it all the time. Someone makes a legitamate satement. Then someone makes some comment in reply that has nothing to do with the topic at hand, and then they go off feeling like they win the argument.


Why yes, a faster hdd does have some effect on your compile times. Thats great! I'm glad. There is just a few problems that I have.

A. You quoted me, then stated your reply as if it invalidates my statement.
B. He never mentioned anything about wanting his computer to compile things fast.


So in the future, if you wish to add something, be clear in your reply.

It matters if you do alot of compiling


This, is what you did.


While yes, while your hdd does not have a significant effect on your in-game fps. If he ever wanted to get into map design, his compile times could be helped with a faster HDD


See the difference? You need to be clear about what you are arguing when you reply to someone's statement.


Then of course I would argue back, that there are more effective ways to spend $200-$500 dollars to increase performance, than on a SSD. As they are currently too expensive to justify the increase in performance they offer. Even then, the bottleneck while you are compiling for the most part, isn't your transfer speed (unless your hdd is REAALLY slow) but your processor's computation speed.

But if he did want a SSD, go with a Crucial C300, as they are currently one of the fastest SSD's around yet still remaining at a relatively reasonable price.

>maximum


but ssd's are as of now useless imo. for certain things useful but general stuff no

too expensive

Notice the latency of the RamSan, It's measured in Microseconds.

Thats, ~ .000015 Seconds

While a very fast regular hdd measures it in Milliseonds or

~ .015 seconds

Whats that mean?

A RamSan 400 can perform 400,000 read/write IOPS( Imput/Output operations a second)

A 2x Samsung F3 in Raid 0 can perform 86 read/write IOPS

A Crucial C300 can perform 60,000 read, 40,000 write IOPS


RamSan's top of the line model, can perform

14,000,000 IOPS
160 TB of storage
Sustained random bandwidth of 140 Gb/s

Hows that for freaking fast?

All this is a 42U rack-mount :P

Can someone send me one of these for Christmas?  ;D kthxbia

At any-rate, this is not the topic to be discussing things like this, on-top of that this is against the rules of the forum. So if you guys have any legitimate suggestions for malaki's computer, let them be known. But if your only suggestion is OMG GO PIRATE THAT INSTEAD ITS MORE WIN. Then please don't bother, as discussions of that nature are against the rules of the forum.

I dont think the MPAA would track down coolz, throw his ass in jail to become bubba's next girlfriend if you dont bluntly shout-out: OH HAI GUYS, YOU SHOULD PIRATE XXX AND DOWNLOAD YYY. It was only a mere suggestion at the most,
