[3874.64 --> 3876.56] room for Microsoft to improve things |
[3876.56 --> 3879.08] about the Xbox one but a lot of the |
[3879.08 --> 3881.12] benefits of DirectX 12 seem to have to |
[3881.12 --> 3882.92] do at least from what Microsoft said |
[3882.92 --> 3884.18] maybe they're keeping some of their |
[3884.18 --> 3885.86] cards close to their chest but a lot of |
[3885.86 --> 3887.30] the benefits seem to have to do with |
[3887.30 --> 3889.70] allowing more low-level programming for |
[3889.70 --> 3892.58] the GPU from the game makers but that's |
[3892.58 --> 3893.90] something that we've already had on |
[3893.90 --> 3895.70] consoles for quite some time and it's |
[3895.70 --> 3897.74] something that Sony could just as easily |
[3897.74 --> 3899.42] enable on their platform whether they're |
[3899.42 --> 3904.40] using DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 and from what I've heard like word on the street |
[3904.40 --> 3906.26] is that we're not that far away from |
[3906.26 --> 3907.88] bare metal on these consoles already |
[3907.88 --> 3910.46] anyway so that to me kind of goes okay |
[3910.46 --> 3911.90] well if we've unlocked a lot of the |
[3911.90 --> 3913.34] potential of the hardware is this just |
[3913.34 --> 3916.76] going to be software tomfoolery and and |
[3916.76 --> 3918.98] smoke and mirrors in order to try to get |
[3918.98 --> 3920.66] games to run at 1080p because that's one |
[3920.66 --> 3923.48] of the claims that they're making or is |
[3923.48 --> 3926.00] this a total game changer as you say and |
[3926.00 --> 3928.46] it remains to be seen this and also |
[3928.46 --> 3930.50] remains to be seen oh yeah I remember |
[3930.50 --> 3931.72] where I was going with this sorry guys |
[3931.72 --> 3933.28] again like my train of thoughts just like |
[3933.28 --> 3935.08] run away I haven't slept a lot this week |
[3935.08 --> 3938.48] right Microsoft still has a lot of room to |
[3938.48 --> 3940.72] improve things whether this update |
[3940.72 --> 3942.58] improves anything or not because their |
[3942.58 --> 3944.92] whole cloud-based compute thing where |
[3944.92 --> 3946.90] they can use that for physics effects or |
[3946.90 --> 3949.46] simulation stuff where it's not terribly |
[3949.46 --> 3951.94] important that you know the waves of the |
[3951.94 --> 3953.92] ocean react with the same split-second |
[3953.92 --> 3956.28] precision as an opponent so there's a lot |
[3956.28 --> 3957.94] of room for Xbox one to improve its |
[3957.94 --> 3959.66] performance I just don't know that this is |
[3959.66 --> 3963.26] going to be the difference between 50% |
[3963.26 --> 3966.02] performance and 100% performance but it |
[3966.02 --> 3967.66] will bring multi-core processing to the |
[3967.66 --> 3971.06] Xbox one something that you know I am |
[3971.06 --> 3972.70] kind of baffled that it didn't have in the |
[3972.70 --> 3974.46] first place but I mean you look at how |
[3974.46 --> 3976.00] long Microsoft's been working on direct |
[3976.00 --> 3978.62] x12 I guess they're just kind of waiting |
[3978.62 --> 3980.30] it out they're gonna wait till it's done |
[3980.30 --> 3982.16] they're gonna release it when it's actually |
[3982.16 --> 3983.96] ready so because I think they said what |
[3983.96 --> 3985.22] they've been working on it for four years |
[3985.22 --> 3991.58] now all right Seagate has announced a six |
[3991.58 --> 3995.66] terabyte hard drive it spins at 7200 RPM so |
[3995.66 --> 3997.94] this is not your this is not your you know |
[3997.94 --> 4000.34] grandpa's cheesy high-capacity hard drive |
[4000.34 --> 4002.76] that spins at lower RPMs in order to make |
[4002.76 --> 4004.60] it reliable enough to deliver that kind of |
[4004.60 --> 4007.06] capacity it speeds at 7200 RPM it's |
[4007.06 --> 4009.34] available in two three four five and six |
[4009.34 --> 4012.10] terabyte capacity points it has 128 megabytes of |
[4012.10 --> 4014.86] cache it can feature a 6 gigabyte per second interface |
[4014.86 --> 4017.42] and up to a SAS 12 gigabit per second |
[4017.42 --> 4022.76] interface it does not rely on being helium |
[4022.76 --> 4027.04] filled like Hitachi 6 terabyte drive and |
[4027.04 --> 4028.60] Seagate is using what they're calling |
[4028.60 --> 4031.34] their eighth generation perpendicular |
[4031.34 --> 4033.76] magnetic recording technology and what |
[4033.76 --> 4036.94] the register it has figured is five |
[4036.94 --> 4042.88] platters to achieve this milestone great I |
[4042.88 --> 4045.64] guess I mean it's gonna be really cool for |
[4045.64 --> 4047.26] people who want to have lots of storage I |
[4047.26 --> 4049.90] think that for quite a while it was |
[4049.90 --> 4051.64] stagnant to the point where I kind of |
[4051.64 --> 4054.04] went okay what is what is the upgrade path |
[4054.04 --> 4057.46] for someone who has a dual bay NAS because |
[4057.46 --> 4059.56] we've only gone from like one terabyte to |
[4059.56 --> 4061.42] three terabytes in the last little while and |
[4061.42 --> 4064.12] like it's gotten to the point now where you |
[4064.12 --> 4065.92] don't look at that and go okay that's triple the |
[4065.92 --> 4068.02] capacity you look at that and go like oh |
[4068.02 --> 4070.18] that's only two terabytes more and I'm |
[4070.18 --> 4071.92] accumulating data at such a rate that it's |
[4071.92 --> 4074.08] not necessarily enough I mean to me this |
[4074.08 --> 4076.66] is exciting because it is a legitimate |
[4076.66 --> 4079.00] upgrade for someone who bought sweet spot |
[4079.00 --> 4081.52] you know two terabyte drives quite some |
[4081.52 --> 4083.22] time ago where now they can triple their |
[4083.22 --> 4085.42] capacity and that means adding a full eight |
[4085.42 --> 4088.78] more terabytes of storage to their setup but |
[4088.78 --> 4090.76] other than that I got him no I guess it's |
[4090.76 --> 4093.44] another hard drive it's gonna support you |
[4093.44 --> 4098.96] know encryption it's it's oh okay what's |
[4098.96 --> 4100.40] cool is they are gonna have one available |
[4100.40 --> 4102.86] right off the hop that is rated for 24 7 |
[4102.86 --> 4105.56] operation and some ludicrous number of |
[4105.56 --> 4106.94] rights per year I think it was something |
[4106.94 --> 4110.24] like 500 hold on I don't want to I don't |
[4110.24 --> 4111.44] want to quote this wrong because I've made |
[4111.44 --> 4114.14] up enough things on the show 550 terabytes |
