just passed today!!!!

Well it was not that bad of test. What really suprised me was that only 1 IRQ was asked and no DMA or I/O address or even anything about cpu's.

But i do have a question what is the difference in LVD and SE SCSI?

Congrats...What kind info was asked to you?

Congrats to you.

The main difference between the two bus mode is that LVD have no common ground between each communication line (two wire per line working in differential mode); SE have a common grounding for all communication line (one wire for reference ground common to all line, and one wire for signal for each communication line).
Please correct me if I'm wrong

One day I'll try that test.

I only had one IRQ question as well. And it didn't even ask which IRQ, just something along the lines of 'which of these devices doesn't use an IRQ?' No DMA channels. No I/O addresses. Of course if you don't memorize them then you'll likely get lots of questions on them...lol.

I took the test yesterday and passed as well. I have to agree it was not that bad except for a couple of questions. They seemed to focus more on basic troubleshooting scenarios. One question I was wondering about was ... If you added an ATAPI cdrom as slave under your ATA100 Hardrive as master.... What would this do for your system.
Increase in cdrom performance
Increase in hardrive performance
Decrease in cdrom performance
Decrease in hardrive performance

I should problably know this.. but unfortunatly I dont. Have always put my hardrives together and my cdroms together. No question is a dumb question right?

lol
