That's nuts...

1 grand's a lot of cash too!

I don't think there is yet any need for that much RAM unless you're talking about big mainframe/server based systems, even then that's obscene! :D

Still that's pretty cool :D

[Daz]

even then that's obscene! :D
Depends what it's doing ;)

8GB's not uncommon even in mid-range servers these days, especially with it being adressable on standard level licensing (with 64bit Windows).

[Will]

True... probably more likely in the stuff you do and use, for me that would be serious over kill! :D

Got 8gb in this machine.

Had 2x2gb and then bought for another build another 2x2gb - and found it needed DDR2 not DDR *D'OH* so stuck it in this machine instead.

XP64 likes memory. :D

RAM runs in the region of 1TB on high end servers at the moment

[Will]

Crikey! I'm so behind in the times... then again this stuff doesn't really interest me anymore so it's no surprise :p

[Grandad]

we are announcing a new storage array shortly with a bandwidth of 136GB/s and a sequential transfer rate of 20GB/s :shocked:

capacity around 1PB

should be good for storing porn ;D

[Daz]

Dangerous would be interested ;D

[Grandad]

Dangerous would be interested ;D


He already has 2 on pre-order ;D
