Talk:Programmed input/output

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Programmed I/O is also a generic term - if no one else wants to, I'll write up something about this in the next couple of days.. --131.111.203.154 16:52, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] CompactFlash

There should be more information on CompactFlash, perhaps on its own article. --Bookinvestor 16:58, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

So what's missing from the CompactFlash article? Guy Harris 17:48, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Wow, my bad. I searched for it, but didn't get any results. Probably I mistyped it or something. Thank you for your help. --Bookinvestor 21:18, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

I think I know what he is talking about. He probably talking about there should be some explanation how PIO via a CompactFlash works. Like in "STEC MACH4.[1] series SSD. I was wondering on that part too, but I totally no clue how it works.

By the way I think you guys should also look at the "DIY Century Compact Flash to SATA adapter. [2] (its CompactFlash on SSD) via some unknown interface, this might help improve PIO on CompactFlash I guess. I haven't check the Technical Documentaiton or any White Papers yet, just so you know

[edit] Serious problems

Programmed I/O is PRIMARILY a generic term. Its association with ATA devices is incidental. Article should be rewritten accordingly. Jeh 18:54, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your suggestion. When you feel an article needs improvement, please feel free to make those changes. Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone can edit almost any article by simply following the edit this page link at the top. The Wikipedia community encourages you to be bold in updating pages.

If you're not sure how editing works, check out how to edit a page, or use the sandbox to try out your editing skills. New contributors are always welcome. You don't even need to log in (although there are many reasons why you might want to).

I attempted to add a few words to separate the generic concept of "programmed input/output" from the ATA-specific information.
