    How is eMMC interfaced to mimic a SATA drive?

    Posted: 27 Aug 2020 05:18 AM PDT

    Just some idle playing around with a throwaway Lenovo N22 notebook which came with hardwired 64 GB Samsung eMMC and 4GB of RAM. It has a Haswell class Celeron and is decently fast for everyday tasks.

    I'm wondering how the eMMC is interfaced. With no discernible add-on drivers, the 64 GB drive is recognized by Windows as a "solid state drive" and responds to a manual trim command from the "optimization" app within Windows disk management. The WMIC command-line utility indicates that it has received valid SMART data and that everything is OK. But that's where the mimicry ends.

    What I really was looking to determine was some indication of the cumulative wear level of the eMMC as these are known to fail in a couple of years with heavy use under Windows.

    Third party disk diagnostic applications (Crystal DiskInfo, HDD Scan, SSD utilities, or even the "Disk Health" app within Linux-based PartEdMagic) see it as an unidentified drive which does not support polling of SMART data and can return nothing except its model number and nominal 64 GB capacity.

    So how is Windows able to interact with satisfaction with this drive, but nothing else will? Is it in the BIOS? Inquiring minds want to know...

    Nvidia 3000 Series Reviewer Benchmarks?

    Posted: 27 Aug 2020 02:17 PM PDT

    With Nvidia revealing their cards on the 1st of September, and a release of the cards on the same day or shortly after, when would we expect to see any kind of review / benchmark information? I've never purchased a card so quickly after release but with the rumored AIB partners already having their versions ready for launch, are the reviewers under an embargo to talk about it, or they simply haven't tested them yet?

    I'm sitting on an R9 390 and usually keep cards for many years, so I don't want to make TOO much of an impulse buy.
