Mixing unbuffered memory with buffered or registered memory will work but is not recommended?
FALSE
Can you subsitute unbuffered SDRAM module?
Ive just been studying about all the forms of SDRAM etc, and when it came to buffered/registered DRAM I found out that normal PC's usually have upto 4 slots for SDRAM, any more gives producers of motherboards lots of electrical problems. So to solve the problem of systems that require maybe 6, 8 slots, they require special DRAM, such as buffered/registered SDRAM. This SDRAM has a special buffering chip on the address bus added to it to work as an intermediary between SDRAM & North Bridge. To take advantage of buffered SDRAM, the motherboard and brige must be able to support SDRAM. Slots requiring buffered DIMMs are keyed differently then those requiring unbuffered DIMMS so it will be physically not possible to install these DIMMs into the slots short of shaving the key. Electrically, possibly, but you have to remember that the register drives the addressing unit on the DIMM and the bridge will likely not be designed to accomidate the drain required to directly drive the memory chips on the address bus and as such may cause instability if it works at all. In addition there is a single clockcycle delay from when the address is written to the registers to when the address is propigated to the memory, in such timing errors could arrise from a bridge expecting that delay. - you cannot use unbuffered SDRAM on a motherboard that supports buffered memory, because the notches on buffered DIMMS are in different positions than for unbuffered DIMMS.
What is the difference between PC-5300P and PC-5300E ram?
The PC2-5300U is non-ECC Unbuffered RAM, which is the most common type of RAM that does not check for errors. The PC2-5300E RAM is ECC RAM or error correcting. The two will not work together. ECC RAM will only work in motherboards that support it. The E and U at the end of the names indicate the ECC and Unbuffered status Insert mode . The question was about 5300P, not 5300U memory. The 5300P memory is registered with Parity whereas 5300E is unbuffered. That means there is no buffer (or register) which holds the data temporarily to additionally help with data integrity.
Which memory card will work best with my Ipod?
The ipod does not have a memory card slot, so no memory card will work with it.
What memory does socket h work with?
DDR3 memory
How does a mixing board work?

How does virtual memory work?
virtual memory works just like as temporary memory does
How does temporary memory work?
The same way as virtual memory
What is a postmodernist work most likely to have that a modernist work?
A postmodernist work is more likely to have elements of pastiche, intertextuality, and metafiction compared to a modernist work. Postmodernist works often challenge traditional narrative structures and question the authority of the author.
