Knowing the difference between CD / DVD-R + R RW

If we ever buy a CD / DVD blank (empty) or never to save data (burn) to CD / DVDs, we sometimes see there are several types of CD / DVDs that are different, such as CD / DVD-R + R or RW. What do you mean minus and plus signs and the differences of each type of these pieces? Then where should type when we want to use it?

Before discussing about the types of DVDs or CDs, however, here are some common terms related to this case that we should understand it well.
  • Burning, namely the process of storing data to media / disk copies. Called the burning, because we burn (write bits of data) layer in the disk with laser light.
  • Session, a period of time when something happens, here is the files were added on the disk in a single operation
  • Single Session, All files on the disk is added in a single operation
  • Multi-Session, a Session on the disk
In addition there is the term ROM (such as CD-ROMs), which stands for Read Only Memory (read only memory), means that information stored on the disk can only be read only.

What is the difference-R + R and RW?
As in almost all CD / DVD writer can write and read all kinds of DVD formats. It is characterized by the existence of a DVD ± RW logo. So if there is the logo, should have no problem when we select the type-R or + R. Regarding the explanation of this sign as follows:
  • R: the 'R' stands for Recordable own. Here, the disk can be used to store data and vice versa if there is no sign of R, then could not save.
  • -R: Minus sign either a CD / DVD disk is a single session. It means we can not add other data, if already in use, although there are still remaining storage. Sometimes there are storage media that can do Multi-session on the disk type R, but the results are not all the media is able to read, sometimes only the first session is unreadable or absent altogether.
  • + R: Alert Plus is intended for Multisession, meaning we can use that empty space is still available on disk. Each new session can be added at an existing session or create a new session. As a bonus, when the new session is stored, can be ordered to "remove" the old session. Delete it means ordering a media player to disregard the contents of the data.
  • RW: stands for rewritable, meaning that this disk using special material so that data can be deleted later used to store new data or can also be stacked with other data. There are certain restrictions on how much (time) data deletion can be done.
Also DVD + R has several advantages, such as more accurate at higher speeds than DVD-R, then also a better error management, and the results of burning (storage) data have smaller levels of damage.
See the difference above, then the DVD + R has advantages over DVD-R, so the price is usually more expensive and has several advantages. But since the first DVD-R is present (5 years) than the DVD + R, then this format is frequently used sometimes (more support to the older media player).

How To Maintain Flashdisk to be More Durable

No doubt that the flash media is now most often used to save the data very easy to carry everywhere. But few who watched this flash problem. Perhaps because of the capacity to large (Gigabyte), then all data is entered, and every moment is installed in a computer is like a mini hard drive. In fact there are hundreds of content not only data, but thousands of data.

Few people know that the flash has a life, like fluorescent lamps which have a life (eg hold until 5000 hours). Nor flash. But what age the size of the flash? How to use flash to make it more durable / durable? what important things to note about the flash?

Some of the things that became characteristic Flashdisk

Some things may need to know about the flash (pure USB Flash disk, not MP3/MP4):
    * USB Flash Disk can only be activated if there is electrical current that can be obtained via the USB port.
    * Some Flash Disk or currents require greater power than others, so sometimes it must be plugged directly on the motherboard port (without cable connection and not a port on the front) to be detected.
    * Flash Disk can not be read if the cable used was too long, because the current is usually less powerful.
    * Flash Disk has the age / lifetime, like 100 000 read / write or resistance to 10 years.
    * Read access speed is faster than writing in the flash. For example to read 16 MB / s while writing 4 KB / s (one and others vary)
    * File system commonly used is FAT or FAT32, because it can be accessed almost anywhere that supports the USB port. Though can be formatted in accordance with the operating system type, such as NTFS.
    * Defragment files on flash is not needed and did not influence the speed of access, because flash is using a type of Random Access Memory.

How to secure the data therein?

Seems the only way to encrypt data in the flash disk. Although nowadays when buying a flash disk is included software that can lock (lock), but still can not open an existing computer software. USB Flash disk is not damaged although the possibility of wet or even submerged, the origin is dried before being used first.

Tips for Using a more durable Flashdisk

    * Do not save files that are very much into the flash, if possible better in the zip. As more and more to save the file then the process will also write more flash, so its age is also rapidly decreasing.
    * If not very important, avoid directly editing the flash. Alternatively copy the data on your computer, then edited and after returning the copy to Flashdisk.
    * If not worn / used, remove the stick from the computer.
    * Always try to remove the stick from the computer through the "Safety Remove Hardware" and avoid the immediate release when in the process read / write, because it could have been damaged by an electrical current.

Flashdisk with one another has the age and speed vary. One more tips when buying flash, do not just look at the price, but also a guarantee, if more expensive but guarantees little longer, then select a longer warranty.

Partner, who already seems to have the design itself is ASUS. Can be sure the graphics card price will be very expensive with very large electric consumption.
 
ASUS is reportedly in the project making dual GPU graphics card, called MARS II. This graphics card is believed to be combining two of the fastest graphics card, the GeForce GTX 480. This graphics card is designed by combining two pieces GTX 480 chip in a single PCB. This monster will have a 2x388-bit memory interface, not less than 960-core CUDA, and 3GB of GDDR5 VRAM.
 
Basically, this monster has a high ability to sweep away all the DirectX 11 graphics card that already exists. With high ability is certainly not surprising that the MARS II requires a very large power, with high temperatures.
 
MARS II not only has one or two power connectors, but the three 8-pin power connector as well. More stunning again, ASUS ensure that MARS MARS II can be combined with other II, enabling the combination of Quad SLI. For cooling affairs, until now not known how large and how their shape. As usual, the available display connector still supports DVI, HDMI and Display Port.
