4th paragraph after the word caches should be instruction and not instructopn? Didnt want to fix the typo in the even that it was not actually a typo -Brett
For clarity, please define the term "stop bit", and elaborate further on the uses of parity bits in redundancy checking.
- Yep please define!Medscin 17:01, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
For further clarity: Typical options for parity are: None - no parity bit; Mark - parity bit always 1; Space - parity bit always 0; Odd; Even. The question is, what exactly is meant by odd or even parity, an example please? Martin 2006-02-10.
[edit] RAID parity blocks
I have places tags to merge-out the section RAID parity blocks from this article, and move it to RAID. I think this should be included on the same page as RAID, as it pertains only to raid, and should only be referenced from the Parity bit article for further reading.

I have moved the section today. The7thone1188 03:51, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
- Why did this Parity Block section come back? I was reading this page today and saw the Parity Block section here and it didn't seem to belong. Checking the history it seems like it was at one time moved out of here and into the RAID article. It's still in the RAID article but also back here again too. I would like to remove it again but before I do I'd like to know why it came back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 154.20.81.70 (talk) 07:59, 6 December 2006 (UTC).
