SGI Altix Systems Make Giant Leap to 21 Terabytes of Globally Addressable
Memory at Customer Sites
,----[ Quote ]
| Silicon Graphics, Inc. (SGI) (Nasdaq: SGIC) is in a category all by itself
| when it comes to massive globally shared main memory and globally addressable
| memory on SGI(R) Altix(R) 4700 systems. With numerous installations in the 4
| TB range, and a number more in the 8 TB range, the groundbreaking scalability
| of SGI systems extends to 21 TB of globally addressable main memory at
| customer sites. This is over five times the size of memory that other vendors
| can offer today. The system is designed to accommodate 128 terabytes of
| globally shared memory under the control of a single instance of the Linux
| operating system! The system may also be partitioned among multiple instances
| of Linux and provide globally addressable shared memory among OS instances
| via SGI's unique NUMAlink(R) interconnect technology.

Running Microsoft Windows Vista 64bit and 4GB Ram
,----[ Quote ]
| I then ordered 4GB (2 sticks of DDR667) of ram from Newegg.com. Everything
| arrived fine, I installed the ram which is very simple. With a D630 it
| involves talking off the keyboard to insert the first stick and then to
| install the second stick you just have to remove the back panel. I stuck in a
| Microsoft Windows Vista 64bit version and started the install. Everything
| went fine, Vista installed rather fast so I was really happy at this point.
| It rebooted after successful install, was loading into windows and then blue
| screened. I was devastated lol.
