1607.1 | Exceedingly Specialized Configuration Required | XDELTA::HOFFMAN | Steve, OpenVMS Engineering | Tue Feb 18 1997 16:02 | 16 |
Systems using general-purpose microprocessors with 3+ gigabytes per second processor-to-memory transfer speeds would be considered to be leading-edge designs. A data transfer of one terabyte per second -- one trillion (using the American, not the English definition of `trillion') bytes per second -- is a prodigious I/O rate, and achieving data rates of this magnitude generally require an equally prodigious budget for equipment, storage, communications, and processing. For assistance, please contact DIGITAL directly for configuration assistance -- without knowing additional details specific to this application and to this configuration, it is difficult to provide constructive comments. |
