| Symmetria | morning | 06:31 |
| Kilos | hi Symmetria | 06:31 |
| Symmetria | I wonder how long it will be before we start seeing pcs coming out with 10G NIC's as standard | 06:31 |
| Kilos | what are NIC's | 06:32 |
| Symmetria | cause with the amount of data I move around occasionally between machines at my house, I know for one I'm very very glad I decided to stick 10G stuff in them | 06:32 |
| Symmetria | NIC = Network Interface Card | 06:32 |
| Symmetria | its a network card :) | 06:32 |
| Kilos | ah | 06:32 |
| Kilos | eth or wifi as well? | 06:33 |
| Symmetria | modern 3 terabyte drive can read and write at way more than gigabit speeds so gig network cards are starting to become a bottleneck | 06:33 |
| Symmetria | heh, my house is fiber, gig wifi exists but you don't TRUELY get gig through it, get maybe 700mbit | 06:33 |
| Symmetria | was testing that stuff in Kenya the other day | 06:34 |
| Kilos | ah | 06:34 |
| Symmetria | typically you can sustain writing to a 3 TB disk these days at between 170 - 190 MBytes/second | 06:35 |
| Kilos | whew | 06:35 |
| Symmetria | so between 1300 and 1600mbit/second | 06:35 |
| Symmetria | and when moving around blocks of data half a terabyte at a time, thats useful | 06:36 |
| Symmetria | lol, scary to think, in a second I transfer 8 or 9 times the amount of data my original harddrive held total ;p | 06:37 |
| Kilos | yeah technology is moving in leaps and bounds | 06:57 |
| Kilos | i think it was about 6 or 7 years ago i thought a 6g hdd was massive | 06:58 |
| Kilos | ok i started late | 06:58 |
| Kilos | hi tal0n | 08:45 |
| Kilos | what happened to your nick? | 08:45 |
