Are these the same version of Stockfish except for the tablebases?
What sort of storage was used for the tablebase files?
Yes, see here : http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopi ... 482#535482
Storage is Syzygy :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syzygy_%28mathematics%29

It doesn't seem to say what version of Stockfish was modified.
The astronomy conjunction is much easier to understand. The question I had was more to do with whether the files were stored on a solid state drive.

I thought I saw a post from him that said they were in a RAMDISK. And yes I know, that means the machine has an enormous amount of RAM, only possible if it was a multi socket server board. . So I could be wrong....

Neither of the versions mentioned in the first post seem to have a September 23 date.
