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.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
