Confused - whats the difference between K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum and Diamond??

MSI web page says the Diamond has:
"Silicon Image's SATA RAID supports another 2 SATA II ports. Transfer rate is up to 300MB/s."
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=638
their Platinum page doesn't list the Silicone Image raid as a feature on the Platinum.
I have K8N Neo4/SLI Platinum and it has the Silicone Image raid - I'm using it now. 
Can anyone explain this? 
Another question:  for both boards it shows:  "NV RAID (Software) - - RAID function available for ATA133 + SATA HD drives or 2 SATA HD"   
How can the Raid fuction work for ATA133 drives since the cables for SATA and PATA are different?   What do the mean Raid for 133?
Thanks!!!
Tony

d/l a raid manual and all should be clear

    Oh ok, well that was what the test said prior to reformatting the hard drive. Now, it doesn't find any trouble no matter how many times I run it. That's what has me so confused, everything seems to check out and yet...I can't do anything, not even install the software!

    Whats the difference between sending messages via socket and MQs?

    Whats the difference between sending messages via socket and MQs?With JMS (and the like) your application uses a socket to connect to a central server called a "*Message Broker*". Over this connection it can send or receive messages.
    A Message Broker is somewhat analogous to a database server. Multiple clients connect to it to exchange messages. As with a database a client first establishes a connection, then requests specific facilities like subscriptions.
    It creates a strong decoupling between sender and receiver and handles stuff like allowing multiple receivers for the same message, queuing of messages for applications not currently running and so on.
    (And don't worry, you can get perfectly good message brokers for free such as openMQ and activeMQ.)

  • K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum and Dual Core

    I just received my new MSI K8N Neo4 LSI Platinum motherboard and I am waiting on my new processor AMD Athalon64 dual core 4400+. My questions are:
    1. If the bios on the motherboard is not the latest one will the motherboard boot with the dual core processor. If not what are my options?
    2. If I manage to boot, and all the components are new, assuming I will boot into DOS, can I make a bios update from there or I need to install Windows and then do a bios update?
    3. And what are the bios update procedures for MSI motherboards?
    Thanks a lot guys for help

    hi,
    In order to use dual core CPU on the MB, update BIOS to the latest version (3.4 and above) before using it. After flashing BIOS, please enter BIOS Load Optimized defaults, Save&exit it, then change CPU to dual core one.
    For how to update BIOS, refer to:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/html/support/bios/note/award.htm
    You can use the dual core without updating the Bios. However, your second core won't work until the update. So you can use the cpu without the correct bios version to install windows.

  • Whats the difference between  MobileMe Mail forums 960 and 961?

    There are two MobileMe Mail forums. One is under "MobileMe on www.me.com" and the other is under "MobileMe on my Mac". There isn't really a new desktop mail application is there? Or am I living in a cave, and just didn't notice the update/announcement?

    Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're seeing ...
    No I think you understand. It is just that I've been reading some of the posts in those forums, and it is often hard to tell what exactly people are talking about. The terminology used made me think maybe I had missed something. Maybe there was a MobileMe Mail App on my Mac, I thought that could 'sync' something.
    Examples:
    [Where has 'Mail Rules' gone..?|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7645781#7645781] seemed to be describing a webmail interface, but then I wasn't sure.
    [Mobile me mail doesn't work at all.|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1616729&tstart=0] mentions mail on the web, but then addresses
    [Syncing Mail Folders w/ MobileMe|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1616331&tstart=0] mentions syncing mail folders; made me think maybe there was a feature I had misunderstood.
    In general, it is a little hard to tell when people are talking about the web interface or the traditional desktop Mail.app.

  • NOT Stable overclock on K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum 3.9 MOD + Venice 3000+

    Hi, to all the people that make this forum so usefull. 
    I´m wondering what i´m doing wrong? ??? ??? ???
    I have a Venice 3000+ E3 on a K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum and 1 Gb OCZ Rev2, TCCD.
    I have overclocked the CPU to 9 x 290 Mhz (2610Mhz) HTT 3X, MEM 1:1 290Mhz 2.5-4-3-10 1T 2.75V.
    Memory is ok at this setting on MEMTEST v1.65.
    I have tried Every VCORE possible to the CPU and Nforce Chipset and can´t make it stable.
    I can work on windows with this settings but some times the computer locks. >:(
    If any of you in the forum have a suggestion or recomendation, please Let me Know.
    For a list of complete hardware of my rig, look at the signature.
    Thank for all.
     

    I had this exact same problem, same RAM, same MOBO, with an X2 3800+.
    For some reason it wouldnt overclock 1:1, and that RAM at wouldnt run at 2.5-x-x-x-1T timings (and i dont think it did 2T stable for too long either). So i was limited to either 2 or 3.
    So right now I'm running my X2 at 2.55ghz and my OCZ Platinum 1gb TCCD @ 232(2-3-3-6-1T). Done so by using 183 divider at 255fsb. HTTmulti=3x
    Does dual prime 95 for 10-12 hours (havnt tried for longer)
    Oh also, for voltage, the RAM has 2.80-2.85, and NF4 gets 1.55-1.60v.

  • MSI K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum / HDD_LED Problem

    Hello,
    First off I would like to say that MSI boards rock! I've always been happy with them, in fact this is my fourth MSI board. The board is K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum.
    Unfortunately, I'm having a problem with this one. The problem is minor, but it shouldn't happen, at least I don't think. The problem is that even though the hard drive activity wire is properly connected to HDD_LED, it is not working with my SATA drive. No light at all!
    I read in newsgroups that there are people with this same problem (although not necessarily with this same board). I haven't found a solution to this yet. So my inquiry here is:
    1. Is there anyone else with this exact board with a SATA drive that can confirm his/her HDD_LED light is also not working with a SATA drive?
    2. Does MSI have a fix/solution for this?
    Thank you.

  • What is the difference between component(Y, Pb, Pr) and component(R,G,B)?

    [I previously posted this question in another thread as hadn't realised how to post new question]
    Q. What is the difference between component (Y, Pb, Pr) and component (R,G,B) ?
    I’d previously thought I was reasonably savvy on all things HD, but when I turned my thoughts to looking into getting a mac mini to run part of my home cinema I realise I have some confusions around the above.
    Here’s what I think I know:-
    The mac mini has a DVI output of the type which can output both digital and analogue, and so via physical adapters it could be used to connect to displays that take HDMI or VGA style RGB leads.
    I know on the market I can get a DVI to Component cable lead which would therefore lead me to assume it could drive my HD plasma with component input (Y,Pb,Pr), as I currently drive the HD TV via component cable with a SKY HD box (720p and 1080i), an xbox 360 (720p) and a progressive scan DVD player (480p), all through a Denon AV-amp.
    The problem is, I’ve heard somewhere that the DVI to component is R,G,B only and that it is not Y, Pb, Pr which is making me wonder it a) this will work and b) if I really understand component video afterall.
    I notice the Apple TV outputs Y,Pb,Pr but colours them red, green and blue, so am even more confused….
    Hopefully someone can help educate me on this !

    Thanks for this.
    My Plasma is a Panasonic 42" Viera March 2005 model. No HDMI, No VGA.
    It can process signals up to 720p and 1080i via the component (an interestingly it makes a huge difference over SD even though the native panel is 480..!?!)
    Am I right in thinking that the iPod component cable will also be R,G,B and therefor might be a suitable trial? Ie. if the TV accepts the input from the iPod then it should work for the mini?
    Only other thing of note is I'm doing all this via my Denon 1707 AV amp which does have the facility of upscaling, but I imagine it needs to stick to one format?
    Thanks.

  • Whats the difference between these versions of photoshop?

    First of all to make things clear I want to mention this first that I lives in Pakistan and Adobe doesn't support my region so in order to buy the Adobe Photoshop CC I have to contact the authorized resellers, after contacting them and asking for a invoice proposal for Adobe Photoshop CC, they send me several invoice proposals (per user team liscense). But I just got in a trouble as these proposals are offering Photoshop CC different versions so its like kinda making me double mind, i am just confused which to buy as prices are differ too and kinda noticeable. As for making my intentions clear I also wanna mention that I am looking for Single App Liscense i mean i just wanna buy Photoshop CC thats it. But for sure its not gonna be that photography version nor student one. Also i wanna know that whats the difference between these two versions and also tell me the pros and cons.
    So please help me choose which one is better for me as I am really confused with it.
    Here are the links
    Note: You will have to translate these pages into english
    Link one:

    Link two:
    [65226001BA01A12] ราคาพิเศษ จำหน่าย Photoshop CC ALL Multiple Platforms Multi Asian Languages Licensing Subscription Mo…
    I've attached screenshots too

    The features in both of the Photoshop CC are identical, there is a difference in price because, the higher priced is the original Photoshop price, the less priced is the promotional priced Photoshop CC eligible only if you have CS3 or later version of Adobe creative suite product.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • Whats the difference between EPMA and Essbase Studio

    Aren't they both used for designing applications?
    And do one really need Essbase Studio?

    Whats the difference between EPMA and Essbase Studio ^^^It is a bit confusing, isn't it? As far as I understand EPMA's role, it's a way to share common dimensions and data across multiple Oracle EPM products including Essbase, Planning, and HFM. I actually don't know if other products live in EPMA. What EPMA does not have is a nice way of sourcing or manipulating dimension and fact tables (or even files). Oh, there are interface tables, but you will write code/use the EPMA dimension utility to load dimensions. I have to say I've never tried to load data through EPMA so someone else is going to have to comment on that. Once dimensions are built, you can deploy Essbase (and other products) from common and database-specific dimensions.
    Studio is the tool you would use to go against a data warehouse, or something awfully close to a data warehouse to build Essbase databases. It's for Essbase only -- Planning, HFM, etc. are not the targets of Studio's output.
    What gets confusing/intriguing is that when EPMA deploys Essbase apps, it uses Studio under the covers to do so. Thus the interesting implementations where people use Studio (which is way more flexible than EPMA because it is a development tool as opposed to a dimension/data management app) to read the EPMA interface tables (and for all I know, the base EPMA tables) and build Essbase apps that way.
    If you think there is overlap, I would agree with you, but you can see they really aren't the same.
    And do one really need Essbase Studio?^^^You don't have to use Studio to build Essbase databases. You can go hog-wild in EAS with SQL load rules if you want, although at some point it probably will be easier/more straightforward to build it in Studio. Although Studio has been mentioned as the replacement for EAS for some time, I suspect the effort required to build a database in Studio will keep EAS around for quite a while or Studio Lite will have to come out. There's a lot to be said (sometimes) for the amazing flexibility EAS/Essbase have -- Studio requires a more methodical approach and EPMA has a very formal set of standards and methods.
    Whew, I'm sorry, I wrote a book about this and I'll bet you get a bunch of differing opinions on this.
    If you're interested in Studio, you might do well to pick up a copy of Glenn Schwartzberg's "Look Smarter Than You Are with Oracle Essbase Studio 11". I receive not a penny from its sale although I was one of the copy editors (hey, I got a mention in the acknowledgements). It's a good book and an excellent introduction to the tool.

  • What's the difference between a not-initialed object and a null object

    hi guys, i wanna know the difference between a not-initialed object and a null object.
    for eg.
    Car c1;
    Car c2 = null;after the 2 lines , 2 Car obj-referance have been created, but no Car obj.
    1.so c2 is not refering to any object, so where do we put the null?in the heap?
    2.as no c2 is not refering to any object, what's the difference between c2 and c1?
    3.and where we store the difference-information?in the heap?

    For local variables you can't have "Car c1;" the compiler will complain.That's not true. It will only complain if you try to use it without initializing it.
    You can have (never used, so compiler doesn't care):
    public void doSomething()
       Car c1;
       System.out.println("Hello");
    }or you can have (definitely initialized, so doesn't have to be initialized where declared):
    public void doSomething(boolean goldClubMember)
       Car c1;
       if (goldClubMember)
           c1 = new Car("Lexus");
       else
           c1 = new Car("Kia");
       System.out.println("You can rent a " + c1.getMake());
    }
