•
The client computer can be remotely shut down and
restarted.
•
Since PXE is an industry standard, new computers
can easily be added to the network.
RAID
Redundant Array of Independent Disks. A system of
two or more drives working together for performance
and fault tolerance. RAID drives are typically used on
servers and high-end
There are a number of different RAID levels. The
three most common are 0, 3, and 5:
•
but no redundancy.
This improves performance but does not provide
fault tolerance.
•
Level 3: Same as Level 0, but also reserves one
dedicated drive for error correction data, providing
good performance and some level of fault tolerance.
•
Level 5: Provides data striping at the
level and
also stripe error correction information. This results
in excellent performance and good fault tolerance.
RAM
Random-access memory. The primary temporary
storage area for program instructions and data. RAM
is stored in
on small circuit boards called
, or
, that attach to the
system board. RAM, unlike
, is volatile, which
means that, when you turn off your computer, any
information stored in RAM is lost.
Rambus
Rambus is a memory technology that is designed to
work with existing system board standards as an
, and
RDRAM
dynamic random-access memory (
). A
memory subsystem that can optimally transfer up to
of data per second. The subsystem
consists of
, the RAM controller, and the
connecting RAM to the
and other
devices in the computer. See also
Remote Wake Up
that provides the ability either to
remotely wake a computer from a low-power sleep
state or to remotely start a computer that is turned
off but connected to a power source. Remote Wake
Up, typically used to conserve power in large network
organizations and to remotely perform
maintenance/configuration operations, must be
supported by an
-compatible computer.
Additionally, to start by a network connection, the
must support
. To start by a
telephone connection, the
must support
.
RIMM
in-line memory module. A slim circuit board
containing
. RIMMs are plugged into
sockets on the computer's system board to add
memory to the computer. They typically must be
installed in matched pairs, meaning two sockets
forming a pair must contain RIMMs of identical
capacity, number of RDRAM chips, and speed. See
RJ45
A form of connector resembling a standard telephone
jack that is typically used to connect
and
and cables. Unlike a
telephone jack, an RJ45 connector has eight wires
instead of two, four, or six.
ROM
Read-only memory. Memory that stores data and
programs that cannot be deleted or written to by the
, retains its contents
even after you turn off your computer. Some
programs essential to the operation of your computer
reside in ROM.
