Quote: “Today we have the chance to look at the Icy Box IB-3218 external enclosure. What makes this enclosure different from so many others? Well his enclosure supports two SATA hard drives across a single USB 2.0 cable unlike many that only have room for one. Our thanks go out to Tagan for providing us with this review sample; they also make some interesting cases and power supplies. The contents consist of the Icy Box enclosure, backup software, driver CD, a USB cable, a small external power supply and a rather limited manual. The CD offers a USB driver for those users still stuck in Windows 98 world along with FNet PCClone EX Lite backup software.
Installation was very straight forward we just had to remove two screws from the bottom of the unit so that the internals could slide out and house our SATA hard drive. The unit will support two drives but for our testing we only had one drive available to us. The drive just slides into place and connects to the provided ports for power and data transfer. The image that follows shows a drive in the tray, and where to secure the drive by using two screws on each side of the drive.”

Title:
[Editorial] Apple’s “Let’s Rock” Event: What’s New With the iPods? @ TheTechLounge
Quote:
“Apple’s latest media event was full of the “funnest” new releases from Cupertino we have seen since the iPhone 3G launch earlier this summer. The refresh was across-the-board for the iPod lineup; new nanos, new Touches, new first-party accessories, and minor updates to the Classic and Shuffle lines - all of the big dogs were present and accounted for. We already went over the new goodies in
http://www.thetechlounge.com/article/574/iTunes-8/ and now we are going to take a look at the good, the bad, and the technicolor for the fresh goodies that Apple sent to retail this week.”

NEW CONTENT (Casing & Cooling) - Xigmatek Red Scorpion S1283 H.D.T. CPU Cooler
QUOTE: “Now that we have gotten to the source and started working with the masterminds behind Heat-Pipe Direct Touch coolers, it is time to get serious. Our first review from Xigmatek was a low cost 92mm cooler that performed better than all of our low to mid-cost coolers, but left us a little underwhelmed when compared to 120mm coolers.
As you can imagine, we have been looking forward to taking a crack at Xigmatek’s 120mm coolers to see how they compare against 120mm offerings from Noctua, Thermalright and the other CPU coolers tested this past year. Today is the day and I have a pair of coolers from Xigmatek that feature a 120mm fan.”

Playit3D: Battlefield Bad Company Review!
“… Battlefield: Bad Company has a plot. It’s important to note because this is the first game in the Battlefield series to actually have a single-player, story-driven campaign. In past instalments, the single-player mode was exactly the same as multiplayer except with bots. This change pleased me because I’m a story whore and have this nagging feeling that a game is incomplete if it doesn’t at least have some cursory single-player experience.
What’s exciting about this game is that it’s the only one on the market that allows you to destroy anything in a free roaming environment.”
