    Good upgradable 15" gaming laptop

    after hearing some people have problems with the Nocti in the W520 and W530 I returned the Nocti for a Muskin Atlas 120 gig msata. It is based of a sandforce 2281 controller that works in the W series. The msata slot is limited to Sata II so unfortunately I cant get the full performance of...

    Seagate Reaches 1 Terabit Per Square Inch Milestone

    How about this.. raise the base warranty back to 3 years and for the love of god bring back the 5 year warranty especially on your enterprise storage. :rolleyes: That being said about frigging time we have larger 2.5" drives. My 3x 1tbs in my laptop are nearly full. 2 tb + for the win:D

    FCC Wants Your Opinion On Cell Jamming

    you sir hit the nail on the head. Cell phones are not a freedom or a right. The people who complain about the idea of cell phone jamming because of emergency's must not realize that before cell phones humanity did just fine. Cell phone usage is a convince nothing more.

    Hackers Are Winning Security War

    As long as you have users you can never really be secure. All it takes is one human mistake and bam the best security is useless. As my favorite IT saying goes, The Network was perfect.... and then there were users.

    Warner Bros. to Adapt Bleach to Big Screen

    I would prefer that the less Hollywood has to do with anime the the better. They can only make things worse. Let Genon or other companies license the anime for prime time release and let it get to the masses that way. Of course I would prefer it in Japanese with subs, but I would tolerate...

    3TB Seagate Drive - 159 worth it?

    I realize that they are owned by either seagate or wd. As far as i know the warranty on the drives has not changed yet (I could be wrong). They will most likely change when the storage groups are fully integrated with their new host companies. Fortunately there is still a limited window that...

    3TB Seagate Drive - 159 worth it?

    Well i think Samsung and Hitachi still have 3 year warranty's but the blacks are really only the ones that still have 5 years. I wish that lowering the warranties was just a temporary measure because of the shortage. More likely the companies leaped at the opportunity to lower their warranties...

    3TB Seagate Drive - 159 worth it?

    Be extra careful about which drive you buy. Practically all the manufactures have changed their warranty policy's. I personally would never by a large capacity drive with anything less than a 3 year warranty. I would prefer 5 year warranty but you will rarely find that outside enterprise...
