Redstone Pseudo HDD Partitioning - Neogreenyew - 09-15-2014

So I won't actually make this because I have no drive to spend time on anything so want someone to make this.

Create a HDD Partitioning type of machine. This will need to act as addressable memory. Along with that, the user should be able to partition the memory off by selecting partition size and the control unit will find a string of consecutive cells of memory that are empty and partition them off so that they can't be written to without the user specifying that data should be written to it.

So pretty much make something that can partition RAM.

Have fun. This shouldn't be very difficult but I haven't seen anyone make this before.

Waitwaitwait.

So you're kind of saying we need to have save in ram what ram is used for what?
If so can we also make ram to save what to save in which ram?
And also ram to save what to save to ram to save from?

I confused myself

What the hell? Is someone paying you every time you say the word 'ram'? Are you sponsored by dodge? Also you need to reword that because I don't understand what you're saying.

I think he's saying: use memory to store where the data partitions are on the pseudo HDD.

RAM to store RAM information

it's just not technically RAM I assume. Is that what a "cache" is?


RE: Redstone Pseudo HDD Partitioning - Neogreenyew - 09-17-2014

No memory in minecraft is ram. ram is just the easiest way of talking about it


RE: Redstone Pseudo HDD Partitioning - Tjakka5 - 09-17-2014

Yeah, so we have ram to store ram information.
But does that mean we can also have ram that stores ram information about ram that stores ram information?
And if so, can we also have ram that stores ram information about ram that stores ram information about ram that stores ram information?

why even bother. there would be no practical feasible use.


RE: Redstone Pseudo HDD Partitioning - Neogreenyew - 09-17-2014

gg it isnt meant to be useful. it is just meant to show that it can be done and it would be neat. there's no feasible use for a lot of the stuff that people make

also is anyone able to understand tjakka?

obvious troll is obvious

Tjaka is suggesting a ram-seption. Aka partitioning partitioned partitions, if that's even possible.
