SanDisk and Toshiba made two announcements yesterday that promised to deliver cheaper and bigger MLC (multi-level cell) NAND flash media. First is their x3, aka three-bit-per cell technology, would allow the company to cram 20 percents more die per wafer than traditional 56nm MLC flash which uses two-bits-per-cell technology. Second is the use of 43 [...]
So I met with Buffalo at CES, and then shortly after they were kind enough to send me their LinkStation Pro Duo for review. I must say I am impressed, it is quite squarely aimed at business users, but for home users, it has some fairly useful features as well.
BiTMICRO never cease to amaze us when it comes to solid state drives with altitude, they have pushed their 3.5” E-Disk Altima Ultra 320 SCSI series to a whopping 1.6TB of solid sate storage.
Everyone knows that the iPhone and iPod touch use flash memory, everyone also likely knows that such memory is quite expensive. So, it comes at no surprise that doubling said flash storage in the iPhone and iPod Touch would be a pricey venture, no?
The GM5664 and GT5662 both have AMD Phenom processors with AMD Live! Both computers also have an nVidia GeForce 6150 SE chipset, but an ATI Radeon HD 2400XT graphics card, however much sense that makes.
The redesign is to make it look more like the WD My Book drives, which is an attractive look. Alongside the appearance upgrade, there was a capacity bump with the drive topping out at 320GB now.
Its technically been renamed to the Modular Datacenter S20 (probably because its not black) but its still the same 20ft. shipping container with a datacenter inside that was previously mentioned. With this you can literally have up to 18 teraflops of performance and a max of 3 petabytes of storage delivered to your front door.
The full specs are an Intel Celeron M processor 353 running at 900MHz with a 512KB L2 cache and a 400MHz FSB. There is the same half gig of DDR2, 910GML Intel graphics, and 2GB of SSD storage.
They released the Caviar SE16 HDD which has a single platter inside sporting 320GB of data storage on that one platter. Yes, all you Samsung fans (myself included after what I saw at CES) they are trying to claim that somehow this drive beats out the density of Samsung’s SpinPoint F1 drives that fit about [...]
This external hard drive is awesome, and should take all the worry out of a head crash. It can do one touch backups, syncing, and more. My favorite part is its ability to sync your entire hard drive, which I would guess (and hope) is in the form of a disc image since there is [...]
