What kind of Hard drive is this?


Recommended Posts

IDE ... that weird connector is an adapter for notebook OEMs (not sure what it is called).  You can pull it off and plug a regular IDE cable into it.

 

Edit:  Sorry!  I forgot you would need another adapter as it carries data and power.  Something like this (for your desktop)

 

Anyway ... if you pull that black connector off you would see 44 pins.  40 are for data (IDE) and the other four are for power.  They are arranged like this, well, because it went into notebooks. :) 

 

This might clear things up?

Jim is correct, it's a 2.5 laptop IDE. Used it back in the 1998 days :p

You found it on the ground? Where do you live, Cybertron?

 

Wish I'd find a Ryzen or an i7 while walking around....

I found a Titan X the other day gently lying in a public garden ;)

lol LaP :) was the garden called "PC World" :p 

 

funnily enough I witnessed something similar, i saw a R480 standing at a street corner jiggling its ram chips at me, called me big boy....I giggled, blushed and ran away, and told my lover NV970 that a R480 wanted my chips!

970 was cool about it, didnt even ramp up the fans.....shes such a classy lady, unlike that tart, the 480 :rofl:

 

dont get me wrong, I dont mind tarty ones, but they are a bit like a Honda C90 cub step thru (google it if your post 80s born), great fun to ride, but you dont want your mates to catch you riding it. :woot: 

 

(hmm maybe i shouldnt have got up so early)

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
