LVD
— Low voltage differential.
m
— Meter(s).
mA
— Milliampere(s).
MAC address
— Media Access Control address. Your system’s unique hardware
number on a network.
mAh
— Milliampere-hour(s).
Mb
— Megabit(s); 1,048,576 bits.
MB
— Megabyte(s); 1,048,576 bytes. However, when referring to hard-drive capacity,
the term is often rounded to mean 1,000,000 bytes.
Mbps
— Megabits per second.
MBps
— Megabytes per second.
MBR
— Master boot record.
memory address
— A specific location, usually expressed as a hexadecimal number, in
the system’s RAM.
memory module
— A small circuit board containing DRAM chips that connects to
the system board.
memory
— An area in your system that stores basic system data. A system can contain
several different forms of memory, such as integrated memory (ROM and RAM) and
add-in memory modules (DIMMs).
MHz
— Megahertz.
mirroring
— A type of data redundancy in which a set of physical drives stores data
and one or more sets of additional drives stores duplicate copies of the data.
Mirroring functionality is provided by software. See also
