Write cycle endurance of flash memory on cRIO-9004 controller?

What is the minimum guaranteed endurance of the flash memory on the cRIO embedded controllers?

The CompactFlash device used in the cRIO-9004 uses a low level optimization technique called wear leveling. This technique will evenly distribute the use of the hardware blocks so that no one section wears out early from overuse. In the case of the 9004 controller, the CompactFlash has 1,023,120 sectors to use in leveling out the wear.
The Write/Erase endurance for the hardware blocks is 300,000 cycles minimum. The Mean Time Between Failures for the device is rated at > 1,000,000 hours.

Check or scan disc tool for Crio flash memory

Is there a check disc or scan disc tool to check for lost data clusters in the compact flash memory of the Crio?

When you receive one of the cRIOs I would look at its disk by typing ftp://[RIO IP Address] and anaylyze the file hierarchy to make sure there isn't the possibility of unnecessary files on one of the cRIOs. Also if you would like for each RIO to be identical you may try formating one and deploying the real-time application and files needed to stand alone in the field. If you haven't looked into this already you may consider using RAD to create an image of one of your real-time targets and pushing it to other targets after reformatting them so that they identical.

Can I install Windows ON a flash drive or on flash memory?

All over the internet I see questions from people wanting to install Windows from a USB flash drive with varying results, but my question is different. I want to install Windows ON removable flash memory. I would like to purchase a MacBook Air, but would like to also continue making use of Boot Camp without taking up too much of my limited hard drive space. I've found fast 3.0 USB sticks and flash cards that would be nice, but can they be treated as a partition in order to install and run Windows?

Ignoring the fact that Windows doesn't really support booting from removable media (you might be able to force it if you are willing to build a custom installer), I can think of another reason you wouldn'r want to consider this. Windows is notorious for heavy usage of the swap file, and I believe I recall reading one report where someone had managed to install Windows to a flash drive, and within 30-60 minutes, the OS had written to the swap file so much that the flash memory was beginning to fail. Remember that each time you write to flash memory, it cases a small amount of damage to the memory, and after a significant number of writed, it will fail. Regretfully, the Woindows swap file will cause this threshhold to be reached very quickly, and then you start getting write errors...

Flash Memory

I bought a flash memory but when I put data on it no problems
but when I remove the data from it it goes to a hidden folder that cannot be seen from a mac I have to open windows to see the ( Trash ) file and then when I remove it the storage capacity comes back
I bought so many kinds of flash Sony and sandisk but the same problem persist
when the os was 10.5 this problem was not there
please help me
MacBook Snow leopard 10.6.4

There really should be a nice Windows like quota system, too.
If you don't want to use .Trash, lock it out and deny write privilage.
I know a lot of things changed and I wonder what it is that affects this...?

IPods for file backup: hard drives v. flash memory

Is a flash memory iPod just as good (i.e., reliable, etc.) as a hard drive iPod for backing up files?
Thanks.

It's actually my understanding that flash memory is slower, but i agree with you that its nice that there are no moving parts, no noise etc. The other thing to be aware of with flash is that the estimated erase/writes over it's lifetime is estimated to be around 100,000. I don't know how long that means it will last, but it does tell us that it has a finite life.

Need to UPgrade Flash Memory ?

If Cisco 3845 has following 2 Flash Memory,
-31360K bytes of ATA System CompactFlash (Read/Write) <------- 32MB Internal CompactFlash Memory installed
-31360K bytes of ATA Slot0 CompactFlash (Read/Write) <--------- 32MB External CompactFlash Memory installed
Can I install IOS which require Flash Memory 64MB on 32MB Flash ×2 ?
or Should I upgrade to Compact Flash 64MB from either 32MB ?

Are you sure this is not a 3700 router because I don't recall the 3800 having an internal and external CF.
I'd recommend you upgrade to a bigger CF. The 3700 and 3800 will support CF up to 2Gb. Format the CF first before loading anything into it.

BIOS flash memory access on HP Envy 17t-2100

Hello, I own a ENVY 17 (sku: LM125AAR), and am looking for any information available about how to read/write the flash memory.
Right now all I want to do is to be able to dump the current firmware to a file (perhaps later I will try the risky stuff).
So I would like to know where the flash memory is attached to (I can't open the laptop... yet...), and in case it's attached to some nasty custom controller, how could I do reads and writes safely.
TIA.

Hi,

Unable to boot from my USB Flash Memory Device

Hi there,
I recently purchased a macbook pro with the lion 10.7.2 firmware.
I am experiencing problems with my USB Flash memory as when i plug it in it comes up fine on the desktop and i can browse it. The problem is that when i open up an application such as Adobe Fireworks or Netbeans (Java programming) and try and access files from my USB flash drive, my drive does not appear on the list/menu, it only comes up with my macbook pro documents etc.
I have asked friends with Mac's and they tell me they do not experience this problem. Please can you help me whether it is a problem with my settings or any other issues.
Thank you.

Nope, I dont recieve any massages at all. It just doesnt appear.
Also usually you can drag a file into an application, for example drag an image into photoshop in order to open that image up but this does not work either.

How can I use my Zen Xtra like a flash memory

Hello, I want to know how can I use my MP3 player like a flash memory.
I have one and if I conect it with other computers I can't transfer documents and with a flash memory I conect it in all the computers with Windows XP and all of they detect the flash memory and they can transfer documents.
With my Zen Xtra I connect it and the computer detects it but I can't transfer anything because the computer doesn't have the software.
My question is.. Do I have to install the software in all the computers that I use ? or there are other forms to conects PC and MP3 Player? ( I want to transfer documents like text, image, etc)

But some MP3 players do that, why this one can't be connected with all the computers ?

I've bought a new USB flash memory. I plugged it in the USB port then a message come out: Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled.... Please help...

I don't know what to do. I plugged that USB in both ports but the same message came out. I charged my laptop and the same thing happened again. The surprising thing is that I tried plugging the USB in my cousins laptop (Macbook Pro) and it worked!!! but not with mine. The USB flash memory made by PNY. Please help...

There are two types of USB 2 devices - low power which consume 100 milliamperes or less from the USB bus and high power which consume up to 500 milliamperes. Your flash drive is probably a high power device and is overloading the USB bus of your computer. (Some notebooks can support only low power USB devices.)
I know that my MBP's USB ports support high power devices but I've come across reports that not all high power devices will work on the MBA and that might be the case for your flash drive. My guess is it has a large capacity? 32GB or more?

Installing LabVIEW DSC 8.6 Run Time on Windows XP Embedded flash memory

I'm trying to install LabVIEW DSC 8.6 Run Time on an embedded PC running Windows XP Embedded. This has a small local disk (c), so I would like to install DSC Run Time on a secondary flash memory drive (d). The installer tells me that I don't have enough free space on drive c, but I cannot browse to select drive d. What do I need to do to get this installed?
Thanks,
Josh

The DSC module can't easily be installed to external flash memory. You'll want to move any extra data onto the flash drive to free up space on the internal memory for installing the DSC module.

USB flash memory: "application not found" error

When recently trying to use a USB flash memory stick I was getting an "f:\ application not found" error. I tried all kinds of fixes from Microsoft. Turns out it was caused by Lightroom.
Since the memory stick had photos on it, my computer's Autoplay was trying to launch Lightroom. Problem is, Lightroom is listed as "Lightroom 4.0 64" in the Autoplay menu. I have Lightroom 4.4. As far as I can tell, there's no way I can fix the incorrect "Lightroom 4.0 64" listing. The solution is to remove Lightroom from any Autoplay options.
This is the second such problem I've had with Lightroom. The previous problem was right clicking on a photo file and trying to use the "open with" menu. It worked fine when I had Lightroom 4.3. After updating to Lightroom 4.4, it didn't work. Another Lightroom user found a workaround, which was to rename the Lightroom 4.4 folder back to Lightroom 4.3.
These are both lazy Adobe oversights. You have to realize all the Windows functions that will be affected with an update and make sure they are updated as well. I spent half a day solving this latest USB flash memory error. Get your updating act together.

Why my macbook pro freezes when I export pictures to usb flash memory

I am a new mbp user and mainly organize my travel pictures using my macbook but recently I cannot export my pictures to "burn" or copy to other flash memory.
I have been diligently backing up using the time machine but as the file size grows i think I am running out of memory. Or is that the reason why?
Can anybody help?
Many thanks
