Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD demystified

Apr 26th 2007 4:30PM on Engadget HD

LPCM is not being used at higher than 48kHz sampling rate because of the datarate/storage that would require.

Dolby TrueHD definitely supports higher sampling rates than 48kHz.

Where's the missing gigs? Hard drive mystery exposed!

The real question is why can't I buy a frickin hard drive. Seriously, why is it so hard to meet the demand for 20GB hard drives... There's nothing special or different about them as far as I can tell. Just a 2.5" SATA drive, a little adapter cable, and a plastic case. wtf.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
