Processors Presented By Kevin White
What is a Processor? • Central Processing Unit/MicroProcessor/Brain • Determines the Computers Speed • Speed Measured in GHz (1 Billion Cycles/Sec) • Core(s) = Processes • Threads = Tasks

Memory • Physical memory(RAM) • What it does • Type and Capacity • Benefits • Volatile vs. Non-volatile • Virtual memory • What it does • Benefits
SRAM • DRAM • FPM DRAM • EDO DRAM • SDRAM • DDR SDRAM • RDRAM • Credit Card Memory • PCMCIA Memory Card • CMOS RAM • VRAM Type of RAMs
History Timeline Magnetic Core Memory Semiconductor Memory ENIAC DRAM 1946 1952 1966 1968
History Timeline (cont.) SDRAM DDR3 SDRAM DDR SDRAM DDR2 SDRAM 1993 2000 2003 2007
Today’s Computer Memory DDR3 SDRAM • Twice the speed • Higher bandwidth (up to 1600 Mbps) • Performance increase at low power • Longer battery life • 1.5 volts • Not compatible with DDR2
DDR4 • Samsung Develops Industry’s First DDR4DRAM, Using 30nm Class Technology - January 4, 2011 • Pseudo Open Drain (POD) - a new technology that has been adapted to high-performance graphic DRAM to allow DDR4 DRAM to consume just half the electric current of DDR3 when reading and writing data.” • Performance speed: 1.6 Gbit/sec. to 3.2 Gbit/sec. • Twice the performance of DDR3 • 1.2 volts
Future - DDR5 SDRAM • DDR5 • Maybe another 3-4 years • Performance speed doubles again • Possibly use POD or better

Hard Drives Presented By James Klabunde
1956 • IBM ships the first hard drive in the RAMAC 305 system. The drive holds 5MB of data at $10,000 a megabyte. The system is as big as two refrigerators and uses 50 24-inch platters
History • 1963:IBM comes up with the first removable hard drive, the 1311, which has six 14-inch platters and holds 2.6MB. • 1978: First RAID (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks) technology patent is filed. • 1980: IBM introduces the first gigabyte hard drive. It is the size of a refrigerator, weighs about 550 pounds, and costs $40,000.
History cont. • 1992: Seagate is first to market with a 7200-revolutions-per-minute hard drive, the 2.1GB Barracuda • 2006: Seagate releases the Barracuda 7200.10, at 750GB the largest hard drive to date.
Modern Drives • The first PC hard disks had a capacity of 10 megabytes and a cost of over $100 per MB. • Modern hard disks have capacities of 100 gigabytes and a cost of less than 1 cent per MB! • Improvement of 1,000,000% in just under 20 years!
Areas of Improvement • Performance • Speed (Read, write, interface (IDE,PATA,SATA)) • Storage Capacity • 5MB to now Few TB’s • Reliability • Much more reliable and longer lasting • (Maybe most important piece of hardware because of the need to access the data on it.) • Cost • From many thousands of dollars to hundreds and cheaper. • Size • From “refrigerators” to less than an inch
Drive of the Future • Solid State Drive (SSD) • Pros • The potential data speed of reading and writing to the solid drive is due to the fact the data is “flashed” and not depending on a read and write head. • They do not have moving parts and do not suffer from potential break downs. • Lack of heat output from these devices. • With a solid state drive running as a primary storage unit, the noise factor drops considerably due to the lack of moving parts.
SSD cont. • Cons • Each memory ‘cell’ in an SSD can only be written to a limited number of times. • Fragments occur on the memory chips and a disk defragmenter cannot be used on them at this time. • Taking the Good with the Bad
Keep an open mind. • Look forward to more storage, in smaller packages at faster speeds to come! • Remember that since the 50’s, drive technology has grown at more than 67% per year!

Removable Storage Presented By David Juarez
History • Paper tape • Removable floppy disks • Magnet tape • Cassette
Present • Laserdisc • Compact disc • DVD • Blu-ray • USB Flash drives • Memory cards • External hard drives
Future • HVD • Store 1 DVD on… It would take approximately 90 million punch cards to be able to store one 8.4GB DVD, or 6,000 floppys, or 4,500 compact cassettes ( it would only take 281 days to restore the data, hehe) – or if we would turn it the other way around, it would take 0.2% of a 3.9TB Holographic disc…
Future • iPhone is 64GB, and we can expect to see an increase of about 10x over the next five years. • Molecular Memory • MRAM Chips • large increase in the availability of external or removable storage with SD and microSD cards increasing from 32GB today to over 300GB and external hard drives increasing to 4 to 6TB (2.5” drives) and over 10TB with 3.5” drives
