Apparently it has to do with the state in which an item is viewed, rather than a feature of the RAM itself. NOB = New Open Box, so it's a new item, but the box was opened to verify contents.

Thx anyway, and again cheers, Dan

Anyway, I work a lot with server and printer RAM, and am considered a bit meticulous -- some may say anal...

I have the following:

Buffered DIMM (BDIMM) -- Double Data Rate (DDR) -- Double Data Rate x2 (DDR2) -- Double Data Rate Generation 3 (DDR3) -- Double Data Rate Generation 4 (DDR4) -- Double Data Rate Version 5 (DDR5) -- Dual In-Line Memory Module (DIMM) -- Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) -- Error Correction Code (ECC) -- Extended Data Out (EDO) -- Fully Buffered DIMM (FBDIMM also FBD) -- Flash Memory Controller (FMC) -- Fast Page Mode (FPM) -- High Density (HD) -- High Profile DIMM (the tall double-row stick) (HPDIMM) -- Low Profile DIMM (the slim stick) (LPDIMM) -- Next-generation DIMM (NGDIMM) -- Registered DIMM (RDIMM) -- Direct Rambus DRAM / DRDRAM / Rambus DRAM / RDRAM is a type of synchronous dynamic RAM (SDRAM), designed by Rambus Corp. (RDRAM) -- Registered-Fully Buffered DIMM (R-FBDIMM) -- Rambus Inline Memory Module used for RDRAM (RIMM) -- Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) -- Small Form Factor (SFF also for small laptop hard drives) -- Small Outline DIMM (SODIMM also SFF) -- Unbuffered DIMM (UDIMM).

... but am now coming across entries including the acronym NOB, but with no clear definition.

Any assist would be appreciated, and if I do find the answer, I'll try to post it here.

Cheers to all readers here, Dan

Had never had this happen before. We were able to get all of it out of my husband's computer and he is able to at least play music again. My computer drive was ruined and will need professional help.

Once RSS readers started taking off, I found myself not visiting sites like Gadgetopia on a regular basis, or because I was reading in an RSS reader, I wouldn't take the time to post a comment.

"Can someone please explain why you’d need this?"

Easy. Let's see an example.

file1.php: function myLoader() { include('file2.php'); }

file2.php: function myFunction() { /Do something./ }

For PHP, I think it is approximatively equivalent to: function myLoader() { function myFunction() { /Do something./ } }
