The firmware inside the SSD does a good job of writing to the entire
drive to avoid wearing out one small area if a file is rewritten
continuously. You can probably plan on 100,000 or more write cycles to
the entire drive before the FLASH memory wears out. Again, the SSD
controller manages
I do have one question about this module just before I order one. Is the
Debian LinuxCNC set up to _not_ use the 'hard drive' for any temp files?
Over time it wouldn't take long to wear out the FLASH memory.
I understand that most of the folders that are used this way are generally
created and

Thanks Martin,
Where are you sourcing the 12V for your supply. From the CNC power supply or a
separate adaptor?
It looks like, from their web site that this supply could handle up to 24V in.
That would work well with the control power supply for relays etc. on my
system. Or just the raw

I have found these more than adequate for a CNC machine. G-code files are small:
The 90 watt unit that Martin quoted works fine. I think the next one up
is 120 watts and honestly that is an overkill.
Becareful as there are a lot of Pico clones out there from China and I
have no idea about their quality.
I have put a killowatt power metering unit on these PCs with the J1900

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that Umbuntu 12 LTS ran LinuxCNC
directly connected to a mill,router or lathe. Good to know.
What model PICO supply? The ones I googled appear to be very low power.

I don't think you are saving time or money using old hardware.
What about this? $70.
The J1900 CPUs are known to work well with LinuxCNC.
If you search the list I think you will see several references to them.

I think this thread says it all about this particular GeForce MX 440 and Linux.
I tried apt-get for envyng-gtk and it no longer exists.

But it looks like back in 2009 there wasn't a lot of support from NVidia for
this board. I wonder why it
Hi Greg,
I'll answer both questions in this reply.
1. It's an ASUS K8S-MX Socket 754 MB and does specifically support AGP 8x.
2. The AGP 8x card it turns out is a Nvidia NV18 [GeForce4 MX440]
3. Latest updates installed.
How do I know what the card is? Easy. I don't loaded the ISO for
