Buffalo’s TeraStation WSS
|
 “The TeraStation is far from being the cheapest way to add up to 4TB of storage space to a network, but it’s built for business with business features. As a result it’s a solid NAS for dedicated file and print server duties. Based on Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 Express Edition, it integrates effortlessly with existing Windows infrastructures and supports heterogeneous file serving as well as backup and replication of stored data. The TeraStation WSS is also a good solution for consolidating multiple file servers into a single solution that enables cost reduction and policy-based management of storage resources. The only real criticisms are price and build quality.”

Seasonic's new X-400 Fanless PSU
|
|
"The MSRP for the Seasonic X Series 400W Fanless power supply
is $139.99 USD and the unit is scheduled to become available in August
2010. If you want a true fanless power supply then the X-400 is the
answer. Keep in mind that for an additional $30 you can buy a
Seasonic X Series 650W PSU, which is also capable of running in silent
mode (fan turned off) at the lower power levels but will supply an
extra 250W of fan-cooled power if you need it."

Eagle Arion ET-AR508LR-BK 2.1 Soundstage Speakers
|
|
I particularly liked the easy set-up and sound quality. These
speakers are simple, with no fancy features, but they sound great. Although
they have a few minor flaws such as short wires for the satellites and no
satellite-mounted volume control, these can be overlooked for the crisp,
clear sounds coming from the wooden cabinets.

ATEN VM0404H HDMI Matrix Switch Review
|
|
While it is incredibly easy to use, the ATEN VM0404H is definitely
not for your average Joe. However, for anyone who is an entertainment
enthusiast, it would definitely be something to consider. While I really
wish ATEN polished off the front a bit more for those who don't have a rack
to hide the unit in and will be relying on the IR remote, function over
fashion is apparent and the ATEN VM0404H does exactly what it is meant to
do. There's no fuss and with a little bit of cable management, you'll have
one networked entertainment system.

In win Dragon Slayer mATX Case Review
|
|
When it comes to gaming the consensus for years was bigger is better. mATX motherboards were not made very well and their ability to run consistent voltages left much to be desired. Well all of that has changed with the use of solid state capacitors and new VRM technology the mATX boards have become power houses in their own right; so much so that the gaming market has perked up and taken notice. These boards come at a fraction of the price of a full sized ATX and they are much more compact. In Win took notice too, and as such they started coming out with mATX Gamers like the Dragon Slayer we will be looking at today. With all of the room for large graphics cards, cooling of a mid tower and the compact transportability of a mATX chassis this case has got it all. Let’s check it out and see if it is the be all end all, of your future mini gamer builds:

Array R2 Mini ITX NAS Case Review
|
|
Now that we have affordable unlimited internet in Belgium, the need for storage has grown. Of course you can fill your computer with hard disks, or to make it easier to share you can buy a bunch of external disks. But in my opinion a dedicated solution for storage, such as a NAS would be more practical. In this review we'll be taking a look at some solutions.

Thecus N7700Pro Network Attached Storage Review
|
|
Thecus’ N7700Pro belong in a class of its own. The N7700Pro is a robust platform. With today’s 2TB drives, in RAID 5 the N7700Pro can host a 12TB array and that’s simply something that carries some weight. The system is powered by a Core 2 Duo CPU and is outfitted with 4GB of RAM making it the most powerful NAS devices we’ve reviewed to date.

SilverStone HDDBOOST Review
|
|
"The SilverStone SST-HDDBOOST is a very simple device once you read just the first couple pages of the manual, being practically PnP in a set it and forget it type of manner. The HDDBOOST gives any hard drive the boot times of an SSD without sacrificing hard drive capacity, write wear on the SSD or the complications of having to change file paths when you would run programs off a secondary hard drive. One of the best features of the SST-HDDBOOST is that you are not limited to any SSD..."

Even with the price of SSD’s still out of range of some users we see an amazing variety of models giving the most hardcore and wealthy enthusiasts a great selection to pick from. OCZ itself manufactures a model for any price or performance range. We already took a look at their budget/mainstream focused Agility; today we have a chance to put their new Vertex 2 to the test. Will the added cost equal better performance?
