Memory manufacturer goes green
MEMORY MAKER Super Talent has developed a new range of panda-friendly DDR3 modules.
The firm's new range uses 38 per cent less printed circuit board material than standard DDR3 modules. It shows that the memory industry's standard DDR3 design wasn't initially developed with eco-friendly priorities.
"Our goal with these green DDR3 DIMMs is to offer a greener memory choice for regular desktops that uses less raw materials, produces less industrial waste and consumes less fuel to transport with absolutely no tradeoffs in functionality or price", explained Super Talent director of marketing Joe James. "When multiplied by the hundreds of thousands of memory modules we produce monthly, this can have an enormous environmental impact."
Super Talent's very low profile (VLP) DDR3 unbuffered DIMMs are designed for use in standard DDR3 based x86 motherboards and use far less fibreglass substrate and copper than previous versions. The company said they are backed with a lifetime warranty.
Further saving the environment, Super Talent packages the modules in a natty clamshell case that uses 47 per cent less plastic and takes up about half the space of its old packaging.
Super Talent's greener 1066MHz and 1333MHz 1GB and 2GB DIMMs will start shipping in September. µ

We know that this is just some lame press release, and that the real benefit they care about is not having to use so many materials in manufacturing to save costs.
Claims ranging from 2.5 to 5 to potentially 10 Gb/s on pci-e 3.0 have pooped up on Tims Hardware, thats My publication taken over by Tim, ACTUAL THEIF, TOM TROW, Faked Death at U of MN again, in 2001, Wehn ME-ME was back In Town. Dad Was Surgeon, Tom aid, funny how things are styilized so mirror like.Both Died on Same Date. Arn't they ALL, TIM'ds NOW?.
Anyway bit of bobble by few turkeys left, here:
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-6gb-raid,2388.html
Remember, really important test is ability to access RANDOM files, both IN & OUT, So don't dump Bank into pile yet. No Such accurate tests where ?given, errrr, reported.
Yet, basic concept that flawed SSD Can run to limit of controller IS tHere:
Each Level of Archetecture raise data rate to EAT upcoming data just more of stuuf that buffers & runs mechanism, would be archetecture, with more code refinement. From Floppies Clunk,Clunk,Clunk to Now This Stuff. Wowie.
Heres True tale. When was at: Mitchel Air Base L.I., had two pets, Floppie, as that FLOPPY Disc was new experimental item is basement LAB and Rusty. Way I'd Be when that stuff finally got toMe-Me where was heading Fast, Civilian world. well, went back to U of MN for residency & Ate Fur off Rusty, Might Help & seemed to with few Patents & Publics incurable desire for Medical Data PilesLead by MY New Company: CONTROL DATA.Edina,Mn.
Floppy was big Light brown DOG, that Looked Litttle Like Sphynix in pose, Oh , That Dog.
Blanchie wasn't option, they wear Out. Then Rusty started to HIT & Blancie Pulled Up In RED,White & Blue BOOK. DOS:USA.Wowie. somethings Take Real Time.
So anyway read article t.heres Hard Guide:
Tom Squirms came about half decade latter, than Rusty & Floppie, in plans, making Thomas registury Mine thru thomas Publishing, that started while in R.O.T.C At Arizona State University. So it adds Up, with MY Own Maop & Route.
Someday SSD Will ADD Up For You, Keep Searching ALL Channels.

You ate the fur off a dog, Drashek?
I originally thought the problem was the translation tool you were using. Now, I wonder.
Drashek is weird, but that post is either a Drashek weirdness record or something close.
wouldn`t shorter paths of copper wires on a silicon boards make for lower latencies?? After all the shorter the distance a signal has to travel, the faster it gets there, no. If thats the case why aren`t they marketing them under the performance flag instead of the eco-fluff. Or maybe they just made the silicon board smaller leaving the printed circuits the same. Cut production costs and wave the eco-green flag. Win-win situation.
If you were looking to reduce the environmental impact of a DIMM module, there are more obvious places to start - particularly the energy consumption of the RAM itself and the energy used in manufacturing the silicon wafer, fabricating the devices or the copper used in the PCB traces.
Let's hope these reduced material, storage and shipping cost is translated to reduced consumer prices as well!
(As if it ever would...)
