I think I broke my DDR2 ram yesterday :-(

How frustrating, I think I broke my DDR2 ram yesterday, on my X1000, nobody seemed to have it in stock anymore, it's just a sign that my X1000 is starting to get a little bit old maybe, luckily for me I kept my old AmigaONE XE, so I have that one up and running, almost forgot how slow those old ATA133 drivers are, and how noisy.

Until my DDR2 ram arrive, I will be running on a little bit slower hardware, I don't think it matters much for compile time though, not on my small projects.

@LiveForIt

Measure the compile time and do a side by side comparision once your ram has arrived...just for fun

Looks like my old ATA133 disks is not so reliable anymore.
ordered some IDE to SATA converters and a new disk, I hope it helps.
Just moving windows, feel its a major difference in speed.
(Technical its half the clock speed, so I should be as shocked.)




I got my AmigaONE-XE booting, but not so sure about the disks.

Hope I did not damage more than the RAM, I forgot unplug power cord, when resetting the DDR2’s, after CFE failed to find memory after a battery replacement.

Regarding Memory tests in CFE fails to complete, I read somewhere that this tests where useless, and did not work correct, well if test fails to complete then something probably is wrong.

@LiveForIt

Yes, memory tests in cfe are bogus, they always fail

@LiveForIt

I have no clue as to way, but my old AmigaONE-XE has stopped giving me read errors under boot, I wonder if can be because the disk has not been used for a long time.

In any case I have ordered a ATA/IDE to SATA disk converter, and new SATA disk, at least it should reduce seek time.
