And doesn't divide bandwidth, so doesn't cut down on the performance. But IDE is suitable when the CPU isn't very big.<br />Is that right?<br /><br />Not bad for a first attempt btw! :)Espèrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00312759044190536243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-12511813337954021012010-08-02T17:51:17.738+05:302010-08-02T17:51:17.738+05:30very informative blog in a simple language..i did ...very informative blog in a simple language..i did not really understand this stuff then but your blog cleared my doubts:)..ScarletMoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13355534185947370394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-91829474222656677362010-08-01T12:30:35.871+05:302010-08-01T12:30:35.871+05:30@Arjun- got it. gonna put up the post soon@Arjun- got it. gonna put up the post soonShayanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223386269072825746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-41952778361375323122010-08-01T01:41:48.734+05:302010-08-01T01:41:48.734+05:30@shreyasi: Thanks!! :) :)@shreyasi: Thanks!! :) :)Nikitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00611556934956505361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-63817171190736547782010-07-31T21:25:21.640+05:302010-07-31T21:25:21.640+05:30heyy..nice blog..& the language is actually ve...heyy..nice blog..& the language is actually very simple(as compared to the other blogs)Shreyasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557711868477211604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-40535582127478532452010-07-31T10:05:03.110+05:302010-07-31T10:05:03.110+05:30Shayan, if you've given your GMAIL ID in the s...Shayan, if you've given your GMAIL ID in the sheet that was passed around in the first class, you've been sent an invite.

On the other hand, to allow for two drives on the same cable, IDE uses a special configuration called master and slave. This configuration allows one drive's controller to tell the other drive when it can transfer data to or from the computer. What happens is the slave drive makes a request to the master drive, which checks to see if it is currently communicating with the computer. If the master drive is idle, it tells the slave drive to go ahead. If the master drive is communicating with the computer, it tells the slave drive to wait and then informs it when it can go ahead.<br /><br />Hope the 1st advantage is clear now... :)Nikitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00611556934956505361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-5795802660564815452010-07-30T22:46:10.352+05:302010-07-30T22:46:10.352+05:30i'm willing to do it but i need "contribu...i'm willing to do it but i need "contributor" status first before i can put up a new post :\Shayanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223386269072825746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-74431901874876138692010-07-30T21:57:10.880+05:302010-07-30T21:57:10.880+05:30Hot-swapping without redundancy systems (like RAID...Hot-swapping without redundancy systems (like RAID) may cause major loss of data.

Hot swap means that you can pull your drive from your machine and replace it with a different disk without restarting your computer. This will especially be helpful for people who are not familiar with configuring a RAID array for backups.SaKsHihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15446146566055854212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-40961384929700300982010-07-30T00:12:19.656+05:302010-07-30T00:12:19.656+05:30Hey dat was gr8..hope to see more from you..and if...Hey dat was gr8..hope to see more from you..and if u find little time..can u give some detailed explaination of the 1st advantage?<br />Thanx in advance<br />ArjunArjun Ahujahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622494760748784115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-75128201608573860232010-07-29T23:09:18.645+05:302010-07-29T23:09:18.645+05:30@Arjun: I will try to be more detailed next time.....@Arjun: I will try to be more detailed next time... thanks!Nikitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00611556934956505361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-20014446657297353552010-07-29T23:00:16.672+05:302010-07-29T23:00:16.672+05:30@apoorv, kshitiz, arjun: thank you all soooo much!...@apoorv, kshitiz, arjun: thank you all soooo much!! :) :DNikitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00611556934956505361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792551684802414654.post-46215225656567913332010-07-29T21:26:26.566+05:302010-07-29T21:26:26.566+05:30Pretty nice article.
