Question Frequent Long I/O Blocking

I thought the ATX spec allowed for +/- 5%, so 12V should be between 11.4V and 12.6V 5V should be between 4.75 and 5.25V 3.3V should be between 3.135 and 3.465V I'll try a different PSU and see if the behavior improves, but it'd really suck if these drives can't tolerate a 2.2%, 3.6%, and 3.3%...

Question Frequent Long I/O Blocking

I used CrystalDiskInfo, which is similar to speedfan and shows me the SMART info for the drives. There are 4 drives, and drive 3 tests bad. That being said, both drive 3 and 4 exhibit the long pause issue. Drives 1 and 2 do not. Since the data on these drives is replaceable, in the short...

Question Frequent Long I/O Blocking

These drives are CMR. The IO on them is primarly Blue Iris (security camera recording) at around a total of 80MB/s. This also happens with BI turned off and just running crystal disk being the only thing running - it’ll start reading or writing and then just stop for 30-45 seconds like...

Question Frequent Long I/O Blocking

Hey folks, I’m at my wits end with this one. I am getting frequent, long IO pauses on my machine. These pauses last for 30-45 seconds and happen every 1-2 minutes. I can trivially reproduce any time I run CrystalDiskMark. These IO pauses do not happen on my OS’s NVME SSD, only on the magnetic...

recommendations for a weather API?

check out: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/xml/ You can specify an exact location via latitude/longitude. You can always map zip codes to lat/long if you need to map by zip code.

critique my UML diagrams please

Is there a difference between Usuario and Usuario2? If not, there should only be one, and that one actor performs both of the actions. If they are different types of actor, for instance "User" and "Administrator" they should have clear names that indicate the difference. User1 and User2 are...

Hi Guys, I'm looking into getting a Q9450 and using DDR2 in the system. What memory speeds should I use? DDR2-1066: 5x533 (5-5-5-12 Timings) DDR2-800: 7x380 (4-4-4-12 Timings) Any other suggestions? Thanks, Brett

What do you consider your "bread and butter"?

Java and Python for me. I do most of my work in Java, but for quick and dirty hacks I use python

Whats your favorite ORM?

I agree with Markbnj here, I've used hibernate, and on more than one occasion we had to change a database design because hibernate would not easily handle our design. We had to use designs that were less desirable because the alternatives were spending days working around hibernate.

Customer information tracking system?

it really depends what they need. Honestly, it looks like in terms of hosting (unless you arent well representing the scale of this non-profit org) that a simple server like godaddys $6.99 plan would do. All you really need is a database and probably an easy CGI script or ASP or PHP if a bit...
