    The 4 beeps code in Dell 3542 means Memory failure , meaning the other two sticks are either damaged or not compatible ..Saying it's DDR3L isn't enough , you should also affirm the rest of the specs labeled on sticks , like for an example "2GB -1333". They should be also of the same bus speed as the other ones ..

      RT809F Chip Write Failure - Winbond 25R256JV
      by CapThatBrass
      Hi,

      I've managed to take an image dump in BIN format of my Dell Latitude 5420, which had a Winbond 25R256JV chip installed.

      I used an RT809F programmer to obtain the BIN, using the supplied iFix RT809F programmer application (latest version being 20220830).

      The programmer automatically found the settings to read the chip but selected the Winbond W25Q256FV instead (my actual model isn't available on the listing within the software). The image came out fine - I did this multiple times to clarify the data being read was the same each time.

      bug of the month: write caching setting for the hard drive in device manager

      i recently bought a new wd re4 2tb with 2014 datecodes. when i got around to testing it tho in victoria hd tester, the write speed was very slow at 14 mb/s with a 256 sector transfer size. when i increased the transfer size to 1024 sectors, the write speed increased slightly to 44 mb/s. read speeds and sector verify speeds were fine and at normal speeds.

      so i just ass-u-med the drive's poor performance was due to it being an advanced format drive and i was using it on winxp. when i tried cloning my system disk to this wd re4 2tb drive and writing to it in linux, the write speed...
