NEC 320Lb-R manual Type of storage device using magnetic tape

software

Programs with specific functions, such as word processing, data base management, communications, and operating system.

SRAM

(Static RAM) A temporary storage area for data and programs. This type of memory does not need to be refreshed, but it is lost when the computer is powered off. See also NVRAM and RAM.

SVGA

(Super VGA) A type of video display system that provides very high-resolution text and graphics on analog color monitors.

system board

The main circuit board in your computer. It contains most of the connectors and ports.

T

tape drive

A type of storage device using magnetic tape.

TTL

(Transistor-Transistor Logic) A type of integrated circuit used in computers. See also CMOS.

U

ultra 160/m SCSI

Ultra 160/m is a parallel SCSI interface based on Ultra3 SCSI technology. This interface features data transfer speeds up to 160MB/second (double-edge clocking), cyclical redundancy checking (CRC) providing higher levels of data reliability, and domain validation that detects the configuration of the SCSI bus and automatically tests and adjusts the SCSI bus transfer rate to optimize interoperability. Note that the Ultra 160/m uses the standard Ultra2 LVD cabling and termination, making it backward compatible for easy implementation.

V

VGA

(Video Graphics Array) A type of video display system that provides high-resolution text and graphics on analog color monitors.

W

WOL

(Wake-On-LAN) A feature that provides the ability to remotely wake a sleeping (powered off) system through a network connection.
