That means the (3) in a network connection

I noticed that sometimes I'll see a Mac connected on a network from parenthesis after its name, as in Bob's Mac (3).

What does the (3)?

This can be a cause or an index of network problems?

If so, what would be the cause or the index.

Thank you

M.

Typically, this means that there is the third incarnation of the "Bob Mac' your system has seen.

The sidebar is filled with servers that are available on the local network. Over time the BONE songs which sound servers view, but if she sees a machine with the same name as another device but, for some reason, it don't think it's the same device, it adds an integer name of the server.

Typically, this would indicate that there are three machines on the network called "Bob Mac", but it could also be a flaw in the heuristics that make the OS think that is not the same "by Bob Mac" has been seen previously (either because of a bug, perhaps a system upgrade, etc.).

    That means the AHCI Mode, Mode RAID & SATA IDE Mode in the BIOS settings means

    My computer is having problems when I bought all first it was from another provider which came as a set overclocked PC up the unit everything needed had to be put in my case & add existing hard drives & DVD etc. readers added on the implementation. I used the same location for more than 10 years before that I always built them myself I can build a good setup computer I correspond to different parts inside each other, and then he tested & sent.
    Unfortunately, the store has closed & the owner is sick cannot get their hands on him more & I had to get some add on things like new SSDS & some other bits in my system & the young boy said he would could do this job, but everything went wrong & I lost all new so I decided to recycle me like I used to do it before windows 7-64 came out I was going through a rough patch with me being paraplegic in any case it is difficult to build a new PC, so I chose this store & their confidence that went wrong now & I've been research & learn to catch up with the new technology, I do what I do anyway.
    Thing is my system is never one that you can purchase a manufacturer & I left it with the young boy & it came out all memory & was not necessary but of course upset of that ruined the setting completely overclocked so I did it myself & I got the work faster than ever, & quieter PC I just got the score that he had now , so I'm happy with it, but the names I came across while overclocking I came across that I'm not average or really lot as were dealing with Fast CrossfireX DDR RAM 1600 MHz.
    Please don't tell me that I should not be messing around with what I made since 1989 & made great strides in how everything works, I am not aware about this sort of thing I know SATA what it is & done, but those responsible for setting came from the part of overclocking in the BIOS I put then correctly , but I wanted to know what they represent in more depth. Thanks to anyone who can put me wise on these 3 points only. Malcolm.

    I'm pretty sure that you are on the wrong "forum" for this type of topic. This forum is designed as a support Pro-type Surface ultrabook/tablets and tablet-like Surface.

    That said,

    AHCI - Advanced Host Controller Interface - this is a hardware mechanism that allows the software to communicate with the devices Serial ATA (SATA). It offers features such as connecting hot and native command queuing (NCQ).

    IDE - Integrated Drive Electronics - IDE is basically the 'old' version of AHCI without connection to hot and NCQ. (It is usually used during the era the Parallel ATA (PATA) hard drives)

    Now. Mode AHCI and IDE mode - what is - this? IDE mode is to give you the greatest compatibility with older operating systems. AHCI is as I mentioned above, a modern version of the IDE - use the AHCI mode if you are running recent operating systems (Windows Vista + and Linux kernel 2.6.19+).) IDE mode will allow you to connect older operating systems with SATA drives.

    As I mentioned above, SATA is Serial ATA and the replacement of hard drives Parallel ATA (PATA).

    RAID - this is a storage technology where combine you multiple disks in a unit of 'single', depending on the mode, there may be RAID-0 and RAID-6 and each with different hard drive configurations. I will explain the simple examples: RAID-0 , which is the distribution but no parity or mirroring, this means that there is no data redundancy, if there is a failure on a disc, it will cause the loss of data on the entire RAID array. Ex: You 0110 as writing the data, 01 goes on disk 1 and 10 goes on disc 2, allowing a faster data read/write access.

    RAID-1- This is the opposite of RAID-0, which is mirrored without interlacing (no parity or the other). Basically, this means that you have an exact clone of disk 1 disk 2 disk 1 failure.

    RAID0 + 1 is that both RAID 1 and 0 is, IE interlacing (write data simultaneously to two [or more]. disks more mirroring failure) the minimum amount of disks required for this type of installation is 4 IDENTICAL drives.

    There is also RAID 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. That is just more implemented different configurations of distribution/parity/mirroring on disks.

    That being said, your RAID mode will allow you for some type of RAID configuration, if you choose to do so.

    Supplement: Many SATA controllers can enable AHCI separately or in combination with RAID support. Recommend Intel choose RAID mode on their motherboards, allowing also the AHCI, rather than AHCI/SATA mode for maximum flexibility (in the case that you ever want to build a RAID array), because there are a few problems that occurs, usually BSOD, when you choose a different mode once an operating system is already installed.

  • What are the 'elements' in a network connection settings (for example, 'client for microsoft networks') and which should I check?

    the termonology throws me, so keep it simple please. BUT I'm just checking my NETWORK CONNECTIONS and when I discover the properties of parameters / the window will appear which indicates the items that you can check or uncheck.

    'the clients for microsoft networks '.

    "file and printer sharing for microsoft networks".

    "QoS Packet Scheduler"

    "internet protocol (tcp/ipi).

    I can't seem to find the info on what they are and why I need one any of them checked, info by simple description is. I am just a computer and I mainly use a cable (ethernet?) a domestic device (modem?) that gives me access to the internet. So all the jargon on the networks and sharing are confusing. I unchecked 'file and printer sharing for microsoft networks' because it is based on the brief description I guess it's for some sort of office network (or other) computers? Finally, everything seems to work with that uncontrolled. I also disabled everything and I would not be able to connect to the internet, so I conclude at least some of them are essential for the connection to the internet anyway.

    A link would be well as long is it centered on my query mentioned and SINGLE [!]. Thank you.

    PS my interest is safety! I don't want to open doors that do not need to be open.

    question side: why I can't copy this? would it because I have disabled 'file and printer sharing... ". » ? I can copy the text elsewhere although [?].

    I've never paid much attention to the QoS, but as far as I KNOW, there isn't any kind of security risk.

    There is a lot of information and misinformation about the QoS on the Internet connections, and I'm not an expert on this subject.

    From what I understand, if you have a single computer connected to the Internet you won't probably no difference if this box is checked or not.

    There is no LAN or wireless connections because the drivers are not installed for Ethernet controller and network controller.

    If your computer came with a disk of driver installation, use it to install the drivers.  If it does not, use a different computer to access the web site of your computer manufacturer and download Windows XP drivers for your computer model.   Then transfer them to your computer and install them.

  • the host as a network connectivity to a single image at a time

    I'm running Vista 64 with Vmware Server 2.0.2.  I have two running, the two images are Windows Server 2008. Both images use host only networking and have all two files hosts for network identification.

    The problem is that the first boot image has network connectivity and the other not.   on the image with connectivity I can ping and map drives on Vista host.   It can only ping itself.

    I have the firewall turned off on both images and an exception for the VMnet1 adapter on the host.

    All of the suggestions.

    Is a machine that is cloned from another such that they duplicate MAC addresses? Without doubt, otherwise, they have different IP addresses - DHCP or fixed?

  • 10 mb on the guest operating system network connection

    I just installed ESXi 4.0 on a server that has 6 physical Gigabit NIC I only got one of them enabled for now. I created a new virtual machine with a clean install of Windows XP Pro and I was quite surprised to find that when finally completed XP installation, she did know that the speed of 10mbit NETWORK card. Although the physical NETWORK adapter on the server is a Gigabit NIC, its connected to a 10/100 switch and the lisghts on the connection stating that the ESXi NIC host operating at 100 Mbps. Is there a reason why the guest operating system should see a 10mbit connection?

    I agree with the previous post, but it should also check your network connection on your host computer speed (host, configuration tab, click on networking) to see how fast has been negotiated.
