Why download more RAM when you can hot-swap it?

[dmjuice] My desktop crashed!

[dmjuice] I was adding some memory and right after I removed a stick it shut off...

[Kumorigoe] dmjuice, you were adding memory with the computer ON?

[dmjuice] Yeah.

[Kumorigoe] dmjuice, why?

* Kumorigoe needs another beer.

[+RoamingFox] dmjuice ... you pulled ram out of a LIVE system?

[dmjuice] There were two sticks of 4 gigabytes. I am bumping it up to two sticks of 8 gigabytes each.

* RoamingFox gets both himself and Kumorigoe another beer

[dmjuice] So 16 gigabytes total.

[dmjuice] There's only 2 slots, so I had to pull one stick to make room.

[Kumorigoe] dmjuice, why the fuck didn't you shut it down first?

[dmjuice] Usually there's only 1 gigabyte in use, so it should fit in just one 4GB stick.

[+RoamingFox] dmjuice which isn't a problem... its that you did it while it was ON

[dmjuice] RAM isn't plug and play anymore?

[+RoamingFox] ...ever

[Kumorigoe] ...no. It's NEVER been "plug and play"

* Kumorigoe shakes his head.

[Kumorigoe] Blog's getting lots of updates tonight...
