(OT) More of a hardware qustion>> faster speed on the last partition... right?

[Vista of the Apes]

I am thinking.. since the hard disk platter spins . the speed of the data
should be greater
on the outside rim of the disk.. since there the angular speed is greater
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_speed

therefore if you have 3 paritions

the last one would be the one with the faster data transfer since each
partition takes up an area of the HDD and each new parition is more towards
the rim..... right?

Therefore if you have a disk paritioned the OS should logicaly be faster on
the last partition...

SO that would be the best partition to install the OS right?

For example a CD rom when you are burning it, the data burns faster when its
writing on the
outer portions of the disk ... and you can see the data transfer if you have
set your burning app
to show that....

How much faster? Well I have seen that on a dvd rom it is as much as 30%!

Does this happen with hard disks? I dont see why it wouldnt....


thanks

What do you do for a living if anything?

 

[Vista of the Apes]

you are stupid.... go away troll.

What do you do for a living if anything?

 

[Bill Yanaire]

Yea, you don't like it when someone calls you stupid, just like when you
call Vista users stupid. Doesn't fell good. Does it?

and by the way, you are a troll.

Here you go:

"I'm a modern man, a man for the millennium. Digital and smoke free. A
diversified multi-cultural, post-modern deconstruction that is anatomically
and ecologically incorrect. I've been up linked and downloaded, I've been
inputted and outsourced, I know the upside of downsizing, I know the
downside of upgrading. I'm a high-tech low-life. A cutting edge,
state-of-the-art bi-coastal multi-tasker and I can give you a gigabyte in a
nanosecond!
I'm new wave, but I'm old school and my inner child is outward bound. I'm a
hot-wired, heat seeking, warm-hearted cool customer, voice activated and
bio-degradable. I interface with my database, my database is in cyberspace,
so I'm interactive, I'm hyperactive and from time to time I'm radioactive.

Behind the eight ball, ahead of the curve, ridin the wave, dodgin the bullet
and pushin the envelope. I'm on-point, on-task, on-message and off drugs. I've
got no need for coke and speed. I've got no urge to binge and purge. I'm
in-the-moment, on-the-edge, over-the-top and under-the-radar. A
high-concept, low-profile, medium-range ballistic missionary. A street-wise
smart bomb. A top-gun bottom feeder. I wear power ties, I tell power lies, I
take power naps and run victory laps. I'm a totally ongoing big-foot,
slam-dunk, rainmaker with a pro-active outreach. A raging workaholic. A
working rageaholic. Out of rehab and in denial!

I've got a personal trainer, a personal shopper, a personal assistant and a
personal agenda. You can't shut me up. You can't dumb me down because I'm
tireless and I'm wireless, I'm an alpha male on beta-blockers.

I'm a non-believer and an over-achiever, laid-back but fashion-forward.
Up-front, down-home, low-rent, high-maintenance. Super-sized, long-lasting,
high-definition, fast-acting, oven-ready and built-to-last! I'm a hands-on,
foot-loose, knee-jerk head case pretty maturely post-traumatic and I've got
a love-child that sends me hate mail.

But, I'm feeling, I'm caring, I'm healing, I'm sharing-- a supportive,
bonding, nurturing primary care-giver. My output is down, but my income is
up. I took a short position on the long bond and my revenue stream has its
own cash-flow. I read junk mail, I eat junk food, I buy junk bonds and I
watch trash sports! I'm gender specific, capital intensive, user-friendly
and lactose intolerant.

I like rough se*. I like tough love. I use the "F" word in my emails and the
software on my hard-drive is hard***--no soft por*.

I bought a microwave at a mini-mall; I bought a mini-van at a mega-store. I
eat fast-food in the slow lane. I'm toll-free, bite-sized, ready-to-wear and
I come in all sizes. A fully-equipped, factory-authorized, hospital-tested,
clinically-proven, scientifically- formulated medical miracle. I've been
pre-wash, pre-cooked, pre-heated, pre-screened, pre-approved, pre-packaged,
post-dated, freeze-dried, double-wrapped, vacuum-packed and, I have an
unlimited broadband capacity.

I'm a rude dude, but I'm the real deal. Lean and mean! Coc**, locked and
ready-to-rock. Rough, tough and hard to bluff. I take it slow, I go with the
flow, I ride with the tide. I've got glide in my stride. Drivin and movin,
sailin and spinin, jiving and groovin, wailin and winnin. I don't snooze, so
I don't lose. I keep the pedal to the metal and the rubber on the road. I
party hearty and lunch time is crunch time. I'm hangin in, there ain't no
doubt and I'm hangin tough, over and out!"

Very very funny. I didn't know WalMart employees were so articulate!
Sounds like an article I read in Penhouse a few years back. I'll see if I
can dig it up.

Bill Yanaire... although you may not understand it... imagine it and of
course
you would never believe it...

I am on your side...

That was not written by me no... It is something from a comedian called
George Carlin
you can find the video on youtube that he actually performs this in a fast
paced rap style..

quite well... although I dont agree with everything this man says... he is
still very talented.

 

[Vista of the Apes]

Its no secret.. I gave you the reference in my other post...

as I said.. you can find this performance on youtube...

manners to acknowledge the quote

[Bill Yanaire]

But you keep on and on and on, just like my ex-wife nagging me to change the
kids diapers. Honey, change little Bubba, his diaper is full. Yes dear,
I'm going to wait a day or so because on the box it says 8-10 pounds and he
isn't there yet!

 

[Bill Yanaire]

Yea, we sent messages a minute apart. Pretty good

 

[Vista of the Apes]

Ok... lets compromise here ok? I will give it a break for the weekend..

no ramblings whatsoever.... none.. nil....

I will give you the chance to say how glorious vista is without a word from
me I promise

 

[Vista of the Apes]

I did in a later post...



as you will see in the thread

 

[Bill Yanaire]

I'm not going to rant about how good Vista is because I don't think it's
very good at all. I use XP for my development box and I have Vista as a
test box so I can test my software. I know that Vista will become the
standard in the future (dispite what everyone says), but reality dictates
that I must "get in bed" with Vista to continue to feed my family.

Yes Vista sucks the big schnitzel right now and it is a Pile, I am not a
Vista lover in the least, but I don't go rambling on and on about it's
failures each and every day.

Sometimes it's good to poke fun, like a cousin from Georgia coming to visit,
but hey, sometimes it just gets outta hand.

and by the way, I think you are very smart!

No no no...! No more diatribes capin' crunch. You're a troll and in real
need of psychological help. You post to seek attention and nothing more.
You add absolutely nothing to this ng other than take up space.
Get help and get a real life.

[Vista of the Apes]

Thanks for your honesty, I understand what you mean.... and you are right
too....

I have an idea... and if I am able to do it... if I can pull off a dream I
have in my mind,
you will understand that this negativity is not real... its an illusion...
my mind is only on helping people...
in multiple ways.. computers is only a small fraction of it all. But it is
an important powerful tool.

As I have said in the past "Many say that necessity is the mother of
invention,
but I say also that dissatisfaction is the father of invention"

And this is true if you view how inventions were created throughout history.

If you can use dissatisfaction as a tool for greater achievements...
then there is nothing that can stop you.

The crime is when you remain in the dissatisfaction and negativity and never
take action to transform it into positive results. There lies the danger....
That is the destructive trap... everything has a flip side, positive and
negative... they are both intertwined, you cannot have one without the
other.

I will not be dwelling forever on the negative side... don't worry... I will
leave the negative behind and focus only on the positive.
