I'm all for tolerance, but I'm more of a SCSI man myself.

IDE Master Slave Month

No….

Wait ..!!! It wasn’t meant like that!!!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Nice jumper. ;)

NO.

SATA(N) IS BANISHED FROM THIS HOUSE

Edit: wait actually this is dumb. Isn't every single modern drive IDE, as in they have their controller onboard? The 40 pin connector is PATA

[-] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago

depends on which marketer you ask

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

IIRC Apple drives, like those in the Mac Studio, use a version of NVMe that doesn’t have the controller onboard which is why they were so hard to reverse engineer.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's "Bare" NVMe, the linux kernel supports such devices but I really fail to see the fucking point™

Apple of course probably did so to fuck the consumer

IDE was fine.

Molex, however, can go fuck itself to eternity.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 days ago

...and yet IDE is phased out and Molex lives on to torment us.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I swear the manufacturing tolerances for molex were "fuck it, looks about right" based on some connectors I had to use.

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 days ago
[-] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

I thought they were all SATA-nists, but NVMe.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

I am impressed by this

I sure don't miss having to move the stupid jumpers for master/slave drives and then losing one of the bastards and having to try and jam a paperclip alongside the pins with some scotch tape to insulate it. Cable select was always a lie.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Don't forget SCSI termination. There was always some extra piece of junk you needed to make it all work. No wonder we all have "the box" in the basement/attic with all the extra cables squirreled away.

Now you take a tiny board a little bigger than a stick of gum, and press it onto the motherboard. Smaller footprint than a DIMM, mind-blowing amounts of solid-state storage. Drives? Naw, we just have chips where the "1"s stick around after you turn it off.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Wow, I had forgotten doing this. Amazing. I remember seeing m.2 drives probably 5 years after they came out and going wtf is this thing. I'll be dead soon jim

Guess the BDSM folks with their Master/Slave relationships are included in Pride.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

What's that suposed to be? Seems like I have another meaning for "IDE"

[-] [email protected] 30 points 2 days ago

The IDE standard was used to connect hard drives and optical drives in from the late 80’s to the mid 00’s. Also known as ATA, it was renamed Parallel ATA when its successor, Serial ATA (SATA) came onto the scene.

Still have a big bag of 40pin IDE cables in my closet. Probably time to say goodbye one of these days.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago

The second you get rid of them you are gonna need them

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

I've used them to extend arduino connectors in the past. Works great.

Thats a terrible idea you might need those for some reason in the future and the only way to assure you don't is by keeping them forever and making them your next of kins problem.
