Review Link: http://www.testfreaks.com/blog/review/icy-dock-25-to-35-hard-drive-converter/

Review Snipit:
“Icy Dock has sent me over quite a little ingenious product, it takes any 2.5″ hard drive and essentially turns it into a 3.5″ one. This can come in handy for many things including of course using it inside of your PC, or even inside of an external enclosure, the Icy Dock Convertor can make your 2.5″ drive go anywhere a 3.5″ can. “

NEW CONTENT (Motherboards) - Albatron Mini-ITX Evolves – KI780G On Display

QUOTE: “Albatron are no strangers to Mini-ITX, in fact we have already tested a couple of boards from them on a Mini-ITX format, including a Socket 754 based and an AM2 based board. Today, however, they are raising the stakes just a little higher. Phenom may not be the highest clocking kid on the block and it can’t keep up with Intel on a clock-for-clock basis with Core 2, let alone Core i7, but where AMD lacks in the enthusiast market, they do have the goods in the power friendly market. Not only that, a top clocking Phenom X4 processor can also be had for cheap now.

Today Albatron have sent us their Mini-ITX KI780G board based around AMD’s very popular IGP chipset, the 780G. Let’s see just how well it’s able to perform compared to VIA’s Nano platform.”

The AMD 790FX was a solid platform, but for many boards, including one MSI 790FX board we looked at earlier this year, struggled a bit on the overclocking side of things. Fooling around with the MSI DKA790GX Platinum for the last couple weeks has certainly showed us the newer SB750 South Bridge has improved on this a lot. The South Bridge aside though, what else does this AMD board show us?

“From a performance standpoint, the MSI DKA790GX performed on par with the 790FX in a stock speed scenario. Overclocking tells a different tale as the 790GX was a very good overclocker. The new SB750 South Bridge is a lot more stable in this department and for those of you looking to squeeze more out of their CPU, you will want to think about this if you’re due for a motherboard upgrade.”

NEW CONTENT (Motherboards) - MSI IM-945GSE-A Mini-ITX Fanless Atom Motherboard

QUOTE: “While we like to look at all the high-end motherboards at TweakTown, we also like to focus on some of the smaller, more budget oriented choices that come to the scene. It’s not the large enthusiast based hardware that manages to make it into the average mainstream or HT PC and you won’t find any ATX boards in car PC’s or project PC’s, it’s most always the mini that gets all the action.

Today we have something you may not consider for your desktop PC, but more for the digital setup unit or a car PC. MSI has sent us their Industrial IM-945GSE-A Mini-ITX board to see just what we can get out of it.”

Summary: “With the EXT4 file-system being marked as stable in the forthcoming Linux 2.6.28 kernel, and some Linux distributions potentially switching to it as an interim step until the btrfs file-system is ready, we decided it was time to benchmark this journaled file-system for ourselves. We ran a number of disk-centric Linux benchmarks along with several of our real-world tests from the Phoronix Test Suite to gauge how well the EXT4 file-system performance will be noticed by desktop users and computer gamers. We have compared these EXT4 results to the EXT3, XFS, and ReiserFS file-systems.”

Like a rocket, Samsungs new smartphone Omnia hit Krusell’s Top 10 list for November!

-I believe that this is Samsung’s first No 1 position since we begin to publish the Krusell Top List, says Ulf Sandberg MD at Krusell. Nokia still has a very strong position; an “old” device such as 6300 is holding the second place, which is pretty surprising. For next month I foresee that Omnia will be challenged by LG’s new smartphone Renoir, which is predicted to be a volume seller in the high-end segment.

The Swedish manufacturer of carrying cases for portable electronics, Krusell, releases its “Top 10″-list for November 2008. The list is based on number of pieces of model specific mobile and smart phone cases ordered from Krusell during November 2008. Krusell’s list is unique due to the fact that it reflects the sales of phones in six continents and in more than 50 countries around the globe.

Facts:

Krusell International AB with 130 million SEK in turnover and 330 employees is a Swedish company exporting high-end cases around the world. After more than 15 years in the cell phone industry, Krusell is established as one of the leading brands in its niche. Besides cases for mobile and smart phones, Krusell also produces cases for PDAs, digital cameras, MP3-players and portable gaming. Most Krusell cases sold are equipped with their patented carrying solution, Multidapt. The headquarters of Krusell are located in Mölndal, Sweden.

NZXT is a global brand established in 2004 as a PC hardware company built on the dreams of gamers.  Their unique lineup of award-winning gaming hardware is completely inspired by gaming culture with product designs driven by the worldwide community of PC Enthusiasts and gamers.  Combining unique design and unparalleled performance, gamers can find quality hardware representing their own style and personality in NZXT.

Taipei, Taiwan, December 2008 - QNAP Systems, Inc. today unveils the new firmware version 2.1.0 for the high performance TS-509 Pro Turbo NAS to support iSCSI target service and a number of security solutions, e.g. AES 256-bit volume-based encryption, automatic policy-based IP blocking, instant SMS alert, and the powerful Surveillance Station for live video monitoring and recording of up to 4 network cameras.

The new firmware of the TS-509 Pro has brought a number of benefits to the business users, specifically cost-effective and flexible storage expansion as well as secure data protection. The built-in iSCSI target service with Thin Provisioning on the NAS enables the server administrator to create up to 8 iSCSI devices for expanding the storage capacity of the existing application servers on the network, e.g. database server, mail server, or configuring the NAS as the backup destination of these servers. To meet the demand for high security data protection of the business users, the TS-509 Pro now supports AES 256-bit volume-based encryption. The encrypted disk volumes of the NAS must be unlocked by the encryption password to be accessed, which eliminates the fear of confidential data leakage if the hard drives or the NAS were stolen.

“The high performance and rich features of the TS-509 Pro are widely recognized and awarded by the worldwide media. By upgrading the NAS to version 2.1.0, the administrator can make use of the Thin Provisioning feature of the iSCSI target service for flexible allocation of the storage space to the application servers regardless of the actual storage capacity of the NAS. When more storage space is required in the future, the administrator can increase the storage capacity of the NAS by Online RAID Capacity Expansion or re-allocate the disk space assigned to the application servers. The TS-509 Pro is an ideal cost-efficient IP-SAN (Storage Area Network) solution for the business users,” said James Wu, Product Manager from QNAP.

New features supported by the TS-509 Pro firmware version 2.1.0:

• AES 256-bit volume-based encryption to enhance secure data protection
• Up to 8 built-in iSCSI targets with Thin Provisioning feature for flexible storage expansion or backup destination of the application servers on the network.
• Automatic policy-based IP blocking to prevent unwanted intrusion or hacking
• Instant SMS/ email alert upon system errors or warning
• Surveillance Station, monitoring and recording from up to 4 network cameras
• Volume status report
• Advanced FTP write-only access
• SSL secure certificate
• Syslog server
• USB UPS function upgrade

“Puzzle games are simple to play, addictive and can be picked up quickly and put down easily. That is why games such as Tetris and Bejeweled are cell phone staples. The Nintendo DS platform is great for puzzle games due to its dual screen and touch interface. Midway decided to take advantage of this design with its latest puzzler – Mechanic Master. “

“Despite the capabilities to satisfy even the most hardcore gamer, the G71 is just as adept at running resource intensive Windows Vista applications, such as image and video-editing programs. If you’re looking for a truly dedicated gaming experience within a highly portable package, this badboy is just the ticket. In fact, we’d go so far as to say it’s one of the best overall gaming laptops on the planet - especially considering ASUS’ aggressive pricing. Alienware still has the upper hand in terms of raw power and customisation (the G71 can’t be customised with CrossFire graphics cards or solid state drives for instance), but as an overall package the G71 it is hard to beat. It even runs so cool and quietly that you’ll hardly notice it’s even on! Our only disappointment is lack of support for nVidia’s flagship GeForce 9800M GTX graphics chipset.”

InsideHW.com has posted article about XFX GTX260 Black Edition (GX-260N-ADB9) graphics card. You can read a clip from review:

“As announced, nVIDIA presented new GTX260 with larger amount of Stream Processors. This is consequence of the facts that regular GTX260 didn’t have expected performances levels and price was too high compared to similar products on the market. Simply put GTX260 was very fast but since Radeon HD 4870 had better performance/price ratio nVIDIA had to do something and as result we have GTX260+. Difference between GTX260 and GTX260+ is in 24 Stream Processors so GTX260 has 192 SP and GTX260+ has 216 SP. This time we got GTX260+ graphics card signed by XFX that belong to their Black Edition series…”

The PC gaming industry has seen many graphics chips come and go. Companies like 3dfx, S3, Trident, Intel, nVidia, ATI and others have tapped into the gaming industry and have produced 3d accellerators for the PC, and most of them have gone. There are only two major players in the PC graphics industry: nVidia and ATI.

These two graphics juggernauts unveil new products every year, which effectively doubles the effective processing power over the previous generation. This ruthless competition is both good and bad news for consumers: Good in that faster technology becomes cheaper, and we have many options. Bad in that the expensive video card you just purchased will remain bleeding edge for only a few months.

The latest battle comes just in time for the 2008 holiday season. ATI’s 4800 series goes up against nVidia’s GTX line of cards. Sapphire is one of the more well-known manufacturers of ATI-based video cards, and they have a secret weapon in the world of single-GPU video cards. Their 4870 Toxic video card not only comes pre-overclocked, but is stacked with 512MB of the fastest GDDR5 memory, which is certainly enough for today’s gamer.

Fuze Review

I remember holding the AT&T Tilt in my hand for the first time and thinking what an excellent device. I finally felt that we could officially call a phone a true “Converged Device”. One year later, the AT&T Tilt Replacement came knocking at the door. This device would have some significant design changes, a little more horsepower under the hood, and a fresh new VGA screen. AT&T would call this new device, The Fuze. Based on the HTC Touch Pro, or Raphael, The Fuze had big shoes to fill with the AT&T Tilt. How would this new device that is called the Fuze measure up to the Tilt? All that and more as we fully review the new AT&T Fuze (P4600), so read on and we’ll begin!
