Hard Drive (Default Events) *New* [Anatomy Video]

[lcyGamma]

Odd but that should explain the problem I'm getting.

Nope.

Fixing the projectile anomaly will not fix the broken events from your rotation lol.

Rotating makes no difference, I tested it without removing case or rotating. I'm going to ask politely for 500% of my money back with weekly payments of £1700-£8671 to pay for loss of health and loss of data.

Rotating makes no difference, I tested it without removing case or rotating.

Certain relays are direction specific, so yes, it does. If it works its afterwards its going to be misfiring information 100%.

[aludane]

Could you demonstrate reading from it sometime tonight/morning? I'm going to be on your server for the next 30 minutes. I need to see it working to feel satisfied that I can trust it.

[phflack]

heh, you put randomness into it
if you don't know what something does, you could just ask

and good to see somebody else is trying to do things with only default stuff

[lcyGamma]

if you don't know what something does, you could just ask

I asked several people, nobody seemed to know.

Factory Recall

I regret to announce that there is a recall on all hard drives tagged with "1" inside the case.

Details:

Version 1 of the Precision HD is being "recalled" after a defect was found in the writing segment of all models. The error, which affects the write prongs, will cause all memory blocks that are stored with an even number to remain writeable. This is due to a design flaw with how prongs are locked and unlocked.

The write prongs featured in the released save are also from the wrong version of the hard drive as multiple were made during development and the incorrect prong was duplicated. This secondary bug known as "memory freeze" will cause only the first 5 memory blocks to respond.

Solution:

I have already repaired the projectile timing differences, and fixed the memory freezing issue. I am now working to repair the write lock problem.

I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. However, the issue does not affect the reading of the device.

A secondary version will be released in the next 24 hours. When available, simply remove the HIO connector and insert the revised model.

[phflack]

I asked several people, nobody seemed to know.

if you ask me, you should get the correct answer
and how exactly does the color storage work? toggles?
you could try using print counts too to increase the amount of data each block can hold

[Crêpe]

Dangit, I'm asking Evar if we do something with this as a clan project

[Jam_Jar]

THE OCTAL TO BINARY IS COMPLETE ._.


This is the proof of concept and it all fully works! :D
All that needs to be done is set up the timing so it's uniform and works with the hard drive and also a little control board that'll trigger it automatically. But all the inputs and are there ready to be used and I was going to put an output on all 4 sides so it's easier to place down without having to worry about blocking outputs.
All that is to be done is the Binary to Octal and maybe one or two other little things.

Feel free to ask questions. c:

DOWNLOAD HARD DRIVE (Rev 2)
MediaFire, 113kb approx.(Zip, BLS and photo, readme)

New Versions Released by MicroBlock

Revision 2 has been released following a "factory recall".

This new version has fixed write prongs, which prevent both the "freezing memory" issue that stopped some hard drives using all available memory blocks, and the "write lock" issue that caused uneven relay packets to leave the memory block writable (corrupting memory).

It is crucial everyone upgrades any and all Precision HD devices on their servers.

Revision 2 also introduces MicroBlock's new connector "HDA" standing for "hard drive adapter". This will allow hard drives to be connected to each other to save the need for multiple HIO connections. More on that later.

New models will be tagged with "2" inside of the case. Check for this number when in doubt.

I am happy to announce that, with the revised model, I have had success in learning and testing the writing system. The system delivers clean output and responds correctly according to the guidebook specifications. I have now started writing specific numbers to input to the drive, and have started early work on input devices of my own to manually enter information.

I have also started experiments with a wireless HIO thing involving single named bricks to transmit information without a physical connection.

[phflack]

i think people would be more motivated to do stuff with this if you hosted a server for it

How do you use it?

[Remousamavi]

I have just completed a working prototype keyboard system for the harddrive. Currently it can only lock/unlock memory, and write to it. Plans are in work for reading/output.
