  2. Extended memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_memory

    Extended memory is located above 1 MB, includes the high memory area, and ends at 16 MB on the Intel 286 and at 4 GB on the Intel 386DX and later. In DOS memory management, extended memory refers to memory above the first megabyte (2 20 bytes) of address space in an IBM PC or compatible with an 80286 or later processor.

  3. RAM limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAM_limit

    The 1 MB total address space was a result of the 20-bit address space limit imposed on the 8088 CPU. Using the color video buffer space, some third-party utilities could add memory at the top of the 640k conventional memory area, to extend memory up to the base address used by hardware adapters. This could ultimately backfill RAM up to the MDA ...

  4. Dell EMC Unity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_EMC_Unity

    The Dell EMC Unity product line includes the hybrid (flash + HDD) 300/400/500/600 models, the all-flash 300F/400F/500F/600F models, and the Dell EMC Unity VSA virtual appliance deployable on vSphere. The basic enclosure for the hybrid and all-flash models is a 2U box with 25-2.5-inch drive slit expansion trays, called a Disk Processor Enclosure ...

  5. Expanded memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_memory

    Certain emulation programs, colloquially known as LIMulators, did not rely on motherboard or 80386 features at all. Instead, they reserved 64 KiB of the base RAM for the expanded memory window, where they copied data to and from either extended memory or the hard disk when application programs requested page switches.

  6. EMM386 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMM386

    EMM386.EXE can map memory into unused blocks in the upper memory area (UMA), allowing device drivers and terminate-and-stay-resident programs to be "loaded high", preserving conventional memory. The technique probably first appeared with the development of CEMM , included with Compaq's OEM MS-DOS for the Compaq Deskpro 386 in 1986.

  7. Upper memory area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_memory_area

    However, even with video RAM, the ROM BIOS, the Video BIOS, the Option ROMs, and I/O ports for peripherals, much of this 384 KB of address space was unused. As the 640 KB memory restriction became ever more of an obstacle, techniques were found to fill the empty areas with RAM. These areas were referred to as upper memory blocks (UMBs).

    2.5-inch hard disk drives often consume less power than larger ones. [12] [13] Low capacity solid-state drives have no moving parts and consume less power than hard disks. [14] [15] [16] Also, memory may use more power than hard disks. [16] Large caches, which are used to avoid hitting the memory wall, may also consume a large amount of power.
