Versatile product for use with older components.......2007-07-08

Belkin F3X171-10 Serial File Transfer Cable did everything it promised to transfer data from older components with no USB capabilities.

Flexible and works on everything -IT Tech dream.......2004-03-11

There are many, many different items I need to configure or load software into doing the job I do....a lot of it via a serial cable to a dock or console port.

But not all null modem cables are created equal I found out the hard way a long time ago.

Most newer items are fine with a simple 3-wire cable that crosses over only pins 2-3 (xmt-rcv) and passes ground.

But many things require a full 5-wire that passes through the other signals as well....a 3-wire fails in these scenarios.

This cable here is a full 5-wire...with both 25 and 9 pin connectors on EACH side.

I also attached 9 and 25 Belkin Male-Male Gender changers....so this cable literally connects to everything and gets my job done without lugging around a bunch of different cables.

Product Description

Intel Turbo Memory lets your notebook actually learn your habits to provide better system response. That's because it stores frequently used information near the processor, where it's more quickly available. CPUs run better with Intel Turbo Memory.Intel Turbo Memory is a primary PC component, along with the CPU, chipset, and system memory. It caches large amounts of frequently used data for faster access by the processor. This decreases the need for hard-disk accesses, saving both time and power, which equates to increased performance and energy efficiency.That's good news for users who run data-intensive software like media applications. It's also a good match to the substantial system requirements to load and run Windows Vista.Intel Turbo Memory is a single solution that accelerates data transfer both to and from the processor.

Worth it? Maybe........2007-12-02

For about the price of a nice dinner by yourself, you can obtain this card. Caching is nothing new to computers and the idea of having a separate 1gb cache seems like a great idea. To use this item you have to have a computer equipped with the Turbo Cache card slot. I have an Inspiron 1720 and this is found right next to my WIFI card slot. The advantage of having that is that you do not have to occupy a USB port or SD card slot to benefit from the caching. I also imagine that this slot is hard wired to the computer using a whole separate buss making it faster.

But question is does it do what it promises. It does to some degree. I do see a small decrease in boot times. Also the programs that I use daily do load and perform much faster. I cannot say that I am saving battery power because of less disk access, but that is really a hard call since I recharge my laptop every night.

Ultimately, this is a feel good item for the most part. If you have an empty slot in your laptop, fill it. If you are looking for a massive performance boost, it would be better to consider upgrading the 5400 rpm hard drive to a 7200 rpm drive. Or if you are still floating in the 1gb RAM or less club, consider going to 2gb in Vista. Those are the real icing on the cake. This is just the little flower decoration that makes it look a little more appetizing.

No Real Difference..........2007-11-17

Installed in my ThinkPad mostly to complete the specs with the hope of some improvement in performance but I had read prior to purchase that the difference is barely negligible. Anyways the price was good and I didn't have it so I got it. It fills that space. Maybe Intel will update the drivers to allow real performance.

OK, but not fantastic........2007-09-21

This product is for the person who is trying to squeeze every last bit of performance they can out of their computer running vista.
This product functions adequately. However, it did not produce a significant systems performance boost. But, I already had 2 Gigs of memory, a 7200 RPM hard drive, and 2.2 GHz cpu. The results may be more pronounced if you have less ram and a slower hard drive.
However, the software uses up some of your RAM and must load into memory after Windows has loaded before it can be utilized by the system, so is unlikely to offer drastic system enhancement for any computer.
The specs don't tell you that this 1 Gig module is actually made up of 2 separate 512 Megabyte chips. Each one operates independently of the other. One chip works with windows ready boot to help speed up boot time. The other works with ready drive to help minimize accessing the page file on the hard drive. The Intel configuration program only allows you the option of selecting whether or not each 512 meg chip is active. You cannot designate the entire 1 gig for one purpose.

This type of memory wears out faster than a hard drive or standard memory, but lasts longer than the standard USB flash drive. Hopefully, as this type of technology advances, future versions will be able to drastically reduce boot time.
You will want to go to Intel's website and download the latest installation program for this hardware.
