WD’s 9.5mm Scorpio Blue 1TB laptop hard drive gets benchmarked

On August 1, 2011, In Gadgets, Reviews, by lsderotes

These days, it’s hard to shake the urge to pop a solid state drive into your next laptop, but even if you’re down with dropping the requisite coin, the restrictive capacity choices may make it darn near impossible for pack rats to bite. For those fitting squarely into that category, there’s Western Digital’s newest laptop drive: the 9.5mm 1TB Scorpio Blue . It’s one of the first in this form factor (read: the one that slips into most everything smaller than a Clevo) to hit the 1TB milestone, and at just $99, it’s a veritable bargain.

Crucial’s M4 / C400 SSD reviewed, hitting store shelves in late April for an undisclosed sum

On April 3, 2011, In Gadgets, Reviews, Technology, by Lobo

When Micron’s RealSSD C300 came out, there were no competitors in sight — 355MB / sec read speeds and a SATA 6Gbps interface made for an unbelievably spritely (though also finicky ) solid state drive. Today, that’s simply not the case, as Intel’s SSD 510 and OCZ’s Vertex 3 are furiously fighting for the crown in the high-end consumer SSD space. On or about April 26th, the C300′s successor will hit the market branded as the Crucial M4 , but this time it won’t be the cream of the crop, as even though it’s assuredly a speed demon, it’s actually shown up by its predecessor in a few tests

Westone 4 earphones review

On March 28, 2011, In Gadgets, by klamka13303

Westone isn’t exactly a household name, even in the earphone universe. But what the company lacks in recognition, it more than makes up for in quality. If you’ll recall, we had a listen to its ES5 custom in-ear monitors earlier in the year, and while they cost a staggering $950, they also managed to melt our brain and thoroughly spoil us in the process

Canon’s Rebel T3i / 600D reviewed: not exactly a compelling upgrade

On March 7, 2011, In Gadgets, Reviews, by wordek13

Shocker of shockers — the T3i really isn’t a monumental upgrade from the T2i that came before it. Granted, you could probably glean as much from the raw specifications list, but at least we’ve got a handful of reviews now to confirm it. The folks at Camera Gear Guide have a fairly exhaustive critique up, and while they lauded the overall image quality and the addition of the new video features (a digital in-shoot zoom and a swiveling LCD), they couldn’t wholeheartedly recommend it as an upgrade for existing T1i and T2i owners.

Zotac’s Fusion-based Zbox AD03 Blu-ray HTPC gets reviewed, smiled upon

On February 21, 2011, In Gadgets, Reviews, by Lobo

While AMD’s Zacate E-350 APU has managed to find its way into a number of laptops, it’s not exactly simple to find a desktop based on Fusion right now. Thankfully, Zotac was champing at the bit to be one of the first, and its Zbox AD03 / AD03 Plus has just hit the test bench over at Hot Hardware .

Olympus E-PL2 reviewed, deemed another solid but not groundbreaking Micro Four Thirds entry

On February 15, 2011, In Gadgets, Reviews, by klamka13303

The best thing about the new E-PL2 from Olympus , the company’s latest Micro Four Thirds addition? The 14 – 42mm kit lens that comes with it, apparently. It’s 30 percent faster to focus and, on top of that, much quieter when getting its AF on

NZXT Bunker keeps your USB peripherals secure, even at dodgy LAN parties

On January 13, 2011, In Gadgets, by Lobo

So, here’s the situation: you roll into a LAN party in a less-than-ideal section of town. The lights are dim, the bouncer looks suspect, and Mike Tyson’s tiger is situated there in the rear of the room.

Olympus E-5 DSLR reviewed: solid upgrade for E-3 owners, not much appeal for anyone else

On December 23, 2010, In Gadgets, News, Reviews, by Lobo

The DSLR market just seems to keep on speeding up, and it looks like Olympus might be lagging back toward the caboose a bit with its latest full-body DSLR, the E-5 .

Pentax’s faceplate-swapping RS1000 reviewed, a good choice if you’re on a strict budget

On December 12, 2010, In Gadgets, Reviews, by Lobo

Sadly the Nanoblock-fronting NB1000 looks destined only for Japan, but Pentax is at least blessing those abroad with its RS1000 which, with its customizable and hot-swappable faceplates, offers you a modicum of two-dimensional customization.
