1 TB SATA v/s PCIe - storage versus Flash and RAM wanted to set up.

Hello

I am new to Mac and can't wait to buy Mac Mini.

I studied the difference between a PCIe-based Flash storage and Serial ATA Drive, which of course turns out PCIe Flash Storage is ahead then SATA.

Two choices are running in my mind:

1. 1 TB SATA drive, can I configure 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM

or

2. If I choose Flash on PCIe storage, should I configure 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM

FYI,.

My work will not develop or too technical point of view.

Thank you

(8 or 16 GB) memory and storage are independent. It is not in the other.

The memory cannot be upgraded later since it soldered to the logic board.

If you can afford it, I'd go for the 16 GB.

You did not specify how yo use the mac so maybe 8 GB is enough.

    Hi cyspider,

    I understand that you have purchased storage additional iCloud and your credit card has been charged, but you do not see that the storage has been added.  Have you received an email from Apple regarding this purchase?

    The first thing I would say is to restart your iPhone.  Then tap general > storage & use of iCloud.  In the iCloud section, the amount of 'Storage' has changed?

    If the Total storage has not been updated, the link below will put you in touch with the assistance of the iTunes store team.  They will review your account with you and take measures to solve the problem.

  • Flash does not work in FF26, it works in Chrome and IE. I reinstalled FF and Flash several times. I can't adjust the setting of local storage for Flash either.

    Flash does not work on some web sites. I never had a problem before with flash on FF in the nearly 15 years that I've used FF. Recently it has stopped working for some reason any and on some flash sites does not, NHL.com and site of kid Herotopia being just two of them. I updated FF, Adobe flash, the reinstalled version them repeatedly deleted all the files that have been stored on my laptop; that is, profiles, saved favorite nothing that I could find in user accounts and in the local app, low local and roaming data folders. What is strange, is that I can't set the local storage for flash either. When I visit the Adobe site to view the Adobe Flash Player Settings Manager I can move the scroll bar, but cannot check the: allow third-party flash content to store data on your computer. I can't do it on a Web site where the flash does not work. When I try and it changed on any site that it goes back to zero. Not sure if it is a part of the problem. I got tired of many suggestions on the pages of material here, but nothing works. I even tried this http://forums.adobe.com/message/4566499#4566499#4566499

    The other strange thing is that I used to get the "warning: script does not" prompt that displays "a script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding." You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script ends. "sometimes when I would buy on Macy's.com. This is the only site that it happened.
    I know I have only little technical knowledge, but I have tried to figure this out for a few days and do not know what is happening. The only thing I can think is that I somewhere files corrupted causing this problem. I have just updated to Windows 8.1 tonight in the hope that can help, but nothing helped. I would be very disappointing if I couldn't use FF or must go back using Chrome and FF.
    Sorry for the posting long but no solution would be much appreciated.

    Hi jscher2000,.

    Yes, I followed essentially the: Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209 you have posted.

    And after restarting Firefox, Flash worked. Thanks again for your post I could not find this solution on the Adobe forums until you have posted the link.
    Your expertise and your time is much appreciated.

  • Why can't the PCI 6040E under devices and Interfaces

    Hello!

    I intend to use a PCI 6040 E connected to a BNC 2010 to measure 3 different voltages as an entry. I installed the mx of NOR-DAQ 9.7.5 on windows 7 (64-bit). My question is why I can't see my devices under the "devices and Interfaces? even by Labview, DAQ assistant, acquire the signal, anaolge of entry... I can't configure the devices of this error: no supported devices found.

    Any idea? Thank you

    You're going the wrong way.  The latest version of DAQmx that supports PCI-6040 is 9.5.1.  See this article for more information: OR-DAQmx and NOR-DAQ Driver Support: PCI/PXI devices.  And LabVIEW 2011 is the latest version of LabVIEW that supports DAQmx 9.5.1.

  • USB HDD as a data store and storage of VMS and new virtual machines

    I have a server Esxi 4.1 with 1 TB RAID 5 storage and 3 virtual machines. The storage is full and no space for another HARD disk, so my question is: would it be possible to use a USB HDD as a data store and could be included as a storage for new virtual machines or the VM? If so, could someone let me know how to do it because I'm not able to detect the HARD disk on the host itself.

    No, it is not possible to use a USB drive as a data store.

  • Establish connectivity between storage ESX3.5 and windows Server 2003

    Hello

    I installed the server on HP Blade BL 460c ESX3.5 evaluation copy which has 60 GB of space. I have HP AIO 600 box with 1 TB of capacity and running win2k3 server OS storage. I want to use partion on HP AIO 600 box for all my vitual servers.

    How can I configure NFS partion on the storage win2k3 server and add on ESX3.5 server so that I can even use all virtual servers?

    Do not know the server storage, but I guess that NFS is what you would use

  • Support for PCIe storage

    Are they compatible? If so, which would you recommend?
    I'm under S30 with Windows 7.

    Official support for PCIe SSD didn't happen until the P500/700/900 series. However, PCIe SSD will work on the S30, albeit without bootable media.

    Since no hard drive have been officially qualified, should really a specific recommendation here. Many AHCI or NVMe with SSD should work without much effort, although anything NVMe will need a driver. My personal choice would go to Samsung or Intel, as I've had the most experience with them. Samsung can be done via PCIe cards m2 and Intel has some native PCIe solutions.

    What are your needs here? What volume of storage and what is your purpose of speed? Knowing that might help to point you in the right direction.

  • Linksys NAS200 2Bay SATA 2Port Network Attached Storage is not compatible with Windows 7

    Searching for answers, I found this: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=Linksys%20NAS200%202Bay%20SATA%202Port%20Network%20Attached%20Storage&v=Linksys&uid=NAS200&l=en-US&pf=0&pi=5&c=Networking&sc=Network%20Attached%20Storage&os=32-bit

    Aparently this device is not compatible with Windows 7.

    I have one of those NASs with 2 SATA hard drives of 500 GB searched... I have all my music, movies, photos, and all of our backups of document on this device.  Because I have set up as a RAID array, I don't think I can remove the discs and put them in something to get my "stuff".  We used to use Win XP but recently upgraded both our machines to Win 7.

    If someone has been able to find a way to get to their stuff on one of those Linksys NAS200 devices without finding another WinXP machine somewhere?

    Hi Ken Mizell,

    If the device is not supported in Windows 7, you need to use a computer that is running Windows XP to move the data to a new storage device.

  • SATA using more slow disks for FRA and archivelogs

    1. I am looking for some advice on staging on a SAN storage for my oracle database. I currently have a San with all SAS 15 K drives and I'm looking to develop the San and add SATA 7.2 K disks store. I want to locate our FRA including our "disk to disk" backup oracle and our archive of these disks SATA 7.2 logs and I was wondering if any effect it would have on our production database?

    2. also, I also plan to place an instance of development entirely on the 7.2 K drives and I was wondering what to expect for performance in this regard?

    Thank you

    Oracle cannot know the details ( t - it? ), but it can occupy.  If your slower disks cannot archive logs fast enough because, well, they are slower, and you have other things going on over there, in the worst case, it could stall your db.  I hope that you would have enough newspapers of recovery to avoid this, but if all goes by one controller, you can still have a problem.  And then, if your system is linked to the CPU, it can make no difference at all.  But if being cpu bound to the means available to it to wait for the processor to perform queries of e/s, it could.  Difficult to say without testing, huh?  in any case, with a San, number of batteries often makes more of a difference than the speed controller and the buffering, buffering, network problems, and so on all are potential bottlenecks or has.  And bottlenecks that make the difference.

  • Storage utilization &amp; iCloud &gt; storage management &gt; Photos and camera

    I'm trying to free up storage on my iPhone 6 more running iOS 9.3.1. Photos is empty. Recently deleted photos is empty. Photos is disabled in settings > icloud > photos. The rockers are disabled in the settings > photos and camera. But its still appearing as using 440 MB of storage in the photo library and 30.6 MB in shared photo streams.

    How to explain and free this storage? Are there ghosts stored photos? All other discussions on this topic as the change of date and time has not worked for me.

    Is this storage room # or iCloud?
