The fastest data transfer device is ?......

i want an update of my personal knowledge
what is today the fastest way to transfer data, audio etc from your harddisk to your external disk ? firewire 800 ?? usb 2 ?....
ty for your help.

Read my post again.
I said _"from fastest to slowest"_ and eSATA is first in the list.
_Rated speeds_
• SATA 3.0 aka SATA-II – 3.0 Gbps
• SATA 1.5 aka SATA-I – 1.5 Gbps
• FireWire 800 – 800 Mbps
• FireWire 400 – 400 Mbps
• USB 2.0 – 480 Mbps - however in real life it is slower than FW400 due to technical limitations
• USB 1.1 – 15 Mbps

How to find the max data transfer rate(disk speed) supported by mobo?

I plan on replacing my current HDD with a new and bigger HDD.
For this I need to know the max data transfer rate(disk speed) that my mobo will support. However, dmidecode is not telling me that. Am I missing something?
Here's dmidecode:

I just checked my BIOS and my current setting is set at IDE although it also mentions that the default should be AHCI. Currently I have a dual boot of Windows 7 (need it for Tax software) and Arch
So I guess, when I get the new HDD, I will first set it to AHCI and then install the OSes on it. See if NCQ helps any, and if not I will turn it back and re-install (if I have to). I am planning to have Windows only in virtualbox in the new drive.
Anyhoo, while I was in the BIOS I found two things which I had questions about :
1) Under Onboard Devices --> Integrated NIC , my setting is currently set at "On w/PXE" and it says the default should be just "On". Would it be ok to change it back to On since its a single machine and its not booting an OS on any server. I just don't want to have to re-install anything now since I will be doing that in the new HDD.
2) How would I know whether my BIOS would support a 64 bit OS in Virtualbox? I checked some setting under Virtualization, but they weren't very clear.
I will edit this post and let you know exactly what settings were present under the Virtualization sub-section.

Secure the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system

Hi All,,
I would like to use to "secure" SSH on OS Level the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system Run OS Command before processing and OS command After processing. right now my XI server installed on iSeries OS.
with ISeries we can't call the Unix commands hope we need to go for AS400 (CL) Programming. If we created the AS400 programm how i can call that in XI.
If any one have idea pls let me know weather it will work or not.
Thanks in adavance.
Venkat

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I have red some blogs like /people/krishna.moorthyp/blog/2007/07/31/sftp-vs-ftps-in-sap-pi to call the Unix Shell script in XI.
But as i know in iSeries OS we can write the shell script we need to go for AS400 programe. If we go with AS400 how we need to call that programe and it will work or not i am not sure there i need some help please.
Thanks,
Venkat

CJR2-The plan data transfer is locked

Hi,
I am planning costs by CJR2 on a WBS element for a certain period and version by cost element.When I execute CJR2,it allows me to enter the values against periods but when I try to save ,system gives error message-The plan data transfer is locked for fiscal year 2009 and version F06 in controlling area 1000.
I have checked in OKP1 and also in CO versions,this version is not locked for any transactions and Fiscal year 2009.Has anyone come accross similar situation and how was it resolved.
Its matter of urgency,any help will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
MTH

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your answer.I have checked the statuses and there are no status hampering the Plan primary cost or Periodic reposting Plan data.I guess its more related to the version used.Any other thoughts?Anyone.....

SRM MDM: Workflow Unlaunch while performing the Automatic data transfer

Hi,
We are trying to import some data from R/3 4.6 C by configuraing remote system as ERP and creating Port based based on the XML Schema in the SRM MDM Catalog. We have created work flow to validate the above pulled data accuracy into data manager. Everything goes well here, I am able to get the data transfered into data manager Automatically But the only issue is in the Work flow.
Set workflow into data manager is not able to launch automatically even though the record is accurate via automatic transfer. I have accuratly set the wokflow name in import manager while svaing the MAP file for automatic import.
Please have your inputs why the work flow is not able to launch in automatic data transfer from the specified port.
Thanks/Pawan

Hi Pawan,
please check in the Data Manager, that you selected by the workflow, the right Trigger Actions, such as Record Import. And that the Autolunch is also set correcly.

Tamá

ALV Control: Permitted Values for STYLE in the ALV Data Transfer structure

Does anyone know a source / reference that "de-codes" the integer value of the the field style in the structure LVC_S_DATA to something a human understands.
Doh!! It is the binary values that are important.
Edited by: Andrew Barnard on Sep 2, 2008 3:00 PM.

It is the binary values that are important.
add 32 to turn bolding on
add 512 to turn underline on
add 2048 to get left-justified
and so on..

How can I check the data transfer rate of my FW800 port

I have an iMac 2.4 20 inch (MB323LL/A) with a Lacie external rugged hard drive (320 GB). I have attached it using my FW800 port with the cable supplied with the drive.
It seems slow to me so I was wondering if there is any way to see what the current data transfer is for a backup in progress. Of course it should be 800Mbps but is it really moving at that speed ? How can I tell what speed it is transferring at ? Can I use the same method for USB ports too ?

When you move a large file, you are more likely to see a sustained transfer rate than a small file. Small files have to be individually read/write back and forth, thus slows the actual transfer rate down. If you are moving any file up to 4 GB and probably over 1 MB you'll see more realistic transfer rates. Furthermore your hard drive access time, and RPM figures into the equation too, as well as how much RAM you have. 800Mbps works out to 100 Megabytes per second under ideal conditions.

Is data transfer included in the 90-day tech support which comes with a new MacBook Air?

I would think so. A friend is buying a new MacBook Air, and needs to know if data transfer is included in the 90-day technical support offer from Apple. I'm pretty sure it is, but just would like to make sure I'm steering her in the right direction.
Thanks.

Instructions yes, performing the actual data transfer, not likely. Here are a couple of links that may be useful:

Disk data transfer rate - iMac 2013

Good morning Apple fellows
First of all, sorry for my troubled English speaking, I'll do my best to explain the issue I'm having in the best way possible.
Yesterday I finally received my new iMac (I'm a proud Apple user since 2006), the machine has these specifications: 16 GB Ram, i7 processor, nVidia GT 780M, and a SSD drive of 1TB of capacity.
Under Mavericks everything runs smooth and fine, no issues at all, just perfect, the fastest machine I've ever had. Unfortunately, I had to install Windows 7 via Bootcamp (I'm a mechanical engineer and I use Autodesk Inventor to do my stuff).
After completing the installation of the Microsoft OS, I instantly noticed some laggy performance while running Windows: I installed as asked all the Bootcamp drivers with the USB pendrive that I prepared, but both the startup of the system and the normal use were a bit slow, even slower than my old '09 iMac.
In order to understand what the problem was, I ran the system performance test included in Windows: all the ratings I have are maxed out at 7.9 (7.9 is the top I think), in exception of the "Disk Data Transfer Rate", that is 5.9. As far as I remember, this value is typical for a mechanical disk drive, not for an SSD drive supported with PCIe connections.
Does anybody here got a similar issue? Is there any driver package that I have to install in addition to the Bootcamp drivers?
Thanks in advance

That is because the WEI uses your boot disk as the default device to measure performance, and, for instance, a Velociraptor 10 K disk, does not score more than 5.9. The story changes when the test is run on other disks, like my array:
However, this measurement is totally worthless in real life. You should look at practical benchmarks like PPBM5 Benchmark

N95 8Gb USB Data Transfer Mode not working

I have a bizarre problem with USB Data transfer.
a) I upgraded to the new 15.x firmware with the correct HKCSL package - 0557980
b) I connected PC #1 in data transfer mode with no issue and copied a bunch of installers onto the mass memory and went on to install them - to the PHONE memory.
c) Later in the day, connected PC #2 and did the same with the last few applications.
d) Next day tried to connect PC #1 and it didn't work
e) Thought I must have an application using the MASS storage but checked and not so - all apps on Phone memory.
f) Went to PC #2 and tried - Data transfer mode works - no problem.
g) Tried PC #1 again, and still not working. I get all the right messages (Mass storage cannot be used at this time etc) on the handset, and I get the "safely remove hardware" option appearing on the PC - but I don't get a drive letter assigned in the Windows Explorer.
h) I have tried it on PC #3 and this works as well - no problem.
1. The working PC's both have PC Suite 2-Beta installed, while the problem PC has no PC suite at all.
2. I have downloaded the Nokia-connectivity_cable_driver_rel_6_85_10_0 and it installs properly - giving all the expected wireless... options in Device Manager, but I still don't get a drive letter assigned with the basic data transfer mode on this problem PC #1
So the issue seems to be with a PC that has never seen any version of PC suite, but it worked straight after the firmware upgrade.
All PC's are XP SP2.
Any suggestions on anything else to try ?
Regards

SOLVED by:
- attaching N95, selecting USB Data Transfer Mode
- Going to Device Manager
- Selecting the USB Mass Storage Device for N95
- "Uninstall"
- Remove cable when N95 says its safe to
- Re-attach cable
The PC then re-discovered and reloaded the drivers including the mass storage which then worked normally.
No idea what messed it up in the first place though.

Firewire and Data Transfer

I'll be purchasing the new Mini and had 2 questions. 1- is the file/data transfer migration program a good one? I have lots of info I need transfered and I am concerned everything will be moved correctly. 2- The firewire port on the new Mini is 800. After I purchase an adaptor - 800 to 400 - I have a bunch of external HDs (all self-powered) - is it okay to simply daisy-chain them or should I purchase a firewire hub?
Thank you.
Rich Green

hub or daisy-chain
I would always tend to recommend a hub in this situation if it is viable, since this eliminates potential FW conflicts, and can resolve odd issues which daisy chains can cause. However, there is nothing wrong with experimenting - if you have the FW devices, I'd try the daisy chain first since it doesn't cost anything. If there are any signs of issues (devices not accessible or 'dropping out' of the chain, then you know to get a hub and try again.

How to increase AFP data transfer speed?

When I connect to our server from a WAN source outside of our facility the file data transfer rate is extremely slow. We just upgraded to a 10Mps fiber service and that has dematically increased our website data tranfer speed. I would like to find a way to access the file server from remote location and work, but the data transfer rate makes productivity impossible. I would appreciate hearing how other organizations are set-up and functioning with file transfer sizes at an average of 10 to 15 Mb.
Thanks,
Brian
OS10.6.8 Server,

If you don't have enough network bandwidth for your time requirements, you have little chance of success with the direct approach. Techniques such as file compression and such can only provide limited help. If you're transfering multiple copies of the files, then you can push one copy of the file to a hosted provider, and then serve additional copies from there.
As for your network, a ten million bits per second network connection is the speed of first-generation Ethernet. That Ethernet was a fast network, back in 1985. In the era of a one billion bits per second Gigabit Ethernet and increasingly commonly with the ten gigabit Ethernet links, a 10 Mb link is glacial.
A typical DSL network is asymmetric, meaning you'll have 10 Mb down (theoretically) and some fraction of that up. So you might not be getting that 10 Mb in the direction you're coppying files. And this is best case; various of the ISP network links around aren't providing their rated speeds.
AFP stinks on a network, and you're also opening up your file system to remote attackers.
As for WebDAV, read this. In addition to WebDAV, you can also try an sftp or other "simpler" copy command as a test, and see what you get for that. (sftp is also encrypted, which has benefits, though the encryption also requires more processing time.)
But beyond techniques such as data compression (and which may or may not be an option here) or incremental or "delta" changes to the data (which probably isn't an option here) or working locally and batching over the changes, there are few good ways to contend with a too-slow-for-your-needs link.

Data transfer method

Hai gurus,
I am new to Abap field.
Kindly confirm whether i had to use LSMW or BDC for the following data transfer.
Production and Planning:
1) Bill of material creation-
2) Recipe creation-
3) Resource creation-
Quality Control.
1) Quality plan
2) Quality sampling procedure.
3) Quality info record.
4) Master Inspection Characteristics.
5) List of material with inspection status
6) Inspection Method.
7) Sampling plan
waiting for the positive reply.
Regards,
sc

Hi Sekar,
If you have huge number of records & the process is onetime process, you can go for LSMW, no ABAP knowledge is required for this.
Hope this helps.
Rdgs,

Difference in data transfer rates between winXP and Linux server?

Hello all,
I am using a winXP laptop to act as my server (all usb external hard drives are connected to it) but the data transfer rates can be really slow. Is Linux faster in that regard? Can a Linux based server provide faster data transfer rates?
Thanks for any help.
Bmora96

Linux cannot make hardware go any faster - so if WinXP and its drivers are making optimal use of those USB drives and the USB data transfer pipe, Linux will not make it faster. (but installing Linux and going Tux are always excellent ideas that need no real reason either ;-) )
Real question you should be asking is if using a notebook in a server role is wise thing to do?

Data Transfer Process and Delete Overlapping Requests

Hi All,
We are on BW 7.0 (Netweaver 2004s). We are using the new data transfer processing and transformation. We want to use the ability to delete overlapping requests from a cube in a process chain. So lets say we have a full load from an R/3 system with fiscal year 2007 in the selection using an infopackage. It gets loaded to the PSA. From there we execute the data transfer process and load it to the cube. We then execute the delete overlapping requests functionality. My question is, will the DTP know that the infopackage selection was 2007 so it will only delete requests with selections of 2007 and not 2006 from the cube? Basically, is the DTP aware of the selections that were made in the infopackage?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Everyone,
Figure it out...on a data transfer process you can filter the selection criteria - go to the extraction tab of a DTP and click on the filter icon. Enter your seleciton conditions to pull from the PSA....these seleciton conditions will be used to delete the overlapping requests from the cube.
Thanks

The fastest data transfer device is ?......
