The HDD should be connected via eSATA, and the SATA controller should have support for NCQ (Native Command Queueing). A double core CPU is probably sufficient for a single harddisk, this would be a borderline case. You may want to buy a low end radeon 4xxx to be on the safe side. The lookup will take several minutes. (8 round functions * 8 bursts * 51 keystream segments * 40 tables / 100 HDD TPS) = 1300 seconds. > > So far I'm looking with a laptop with 4GB ram. The RAM index will be between 1.5 and 2 GB big, so 4 GB is enough. _______________________________________________ A51 mailing list A51@lists.reflextor.com http://lists.lists.reflextor.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/a51
