No, it's because you're not considering properly the problem at hand. You're comparing apples and oranges by comparing consumer hardware capabilities and the capabilities able to be achieved for a hardened service environment solution.
It's the same reason why we don't just go and install a new quad core x86 on rockets for their guidance.
- downandout 13y agoSo you are saying that there is a hard technological limit of 2 hours on a CVR because it must be in a hardened container. Got it.
- NamTaf 13y agoNo, thanks for taking my words out of context. I'm saying that there's a whole litany of processes and requirements alongside storage capacity that necessitate limitations. In the case of storage, it will be that certian memory chips, etc. have not been through the process of hardening them. Just like how the latest core processor could run all of the equations required to guide a rocket to orbit, but it sure as hell isn't done on one of them because a number of other features would be neglected. Is it possible to get more than 2 hours of memory in a CVR? Sure. Why hasn't it been done? Due to a variety of other considerations on hand.
