- Maingear Pulse
- PC gamers demand speed, a pursuit that--at least with current technology--runs directly counter to the idea of saving energy. HP's Firebird struck a reasonable balance between the two earlier in the year, and had we reviewed Maingear's new Pulse six months ago, it would have given the Firebird stiff competition...

- Best hard drive for a media center
- Best hard drive for a media centerCool and/or Quiet is more importantI'd run two 5400RPM drives in Raid-0 to counter the lower RPMs. That way, it should help keep the temperatures down. Why? because temperature has a bigger impact on the drive bearings, so it's more likely to wear-out/noisier sooner....

- The mother of all notebook hard drives: Scorpio Blue
- I'm totally psyched that someone has finally released a 500GB hard drive that fits in my MacBook Pro. That someone is Western Digital. WD just announced its WD5000BEVT mobile hard drive, a.k.a. the Scorpio Blue with a huge 500GB capacity. The 500GB barrier was broken earlier this...

- I'm done with the MacBook Air (for now)
- I've come to the conclusion that the MacBook Air isn't the best Mac for me. Everything that I've previously written about the MBA still remains true: I love its tiny form factor, light weight and ability to be able to be tucked into almost any bag, but at...

- Western Digital has raised the bar on the notebook hard drives with their new "Black" line of Scorpio drives. The new 2.5-inch SATA WD3200BEKT hard drives spin at 7200RPM which is faster than their 5400RPM (WD3200BEVT) Scorpio drives that I reviewed on 16 November 2007. The new...

- MacBook Air Diary-Day 12: Tackling the storage issue
- Being somewhat of a data packrat, the MacBook Air's tiny 80GB hard drive was probably its biggest problem for me. I got accustomed to having a fairly heavy Aperture (20GB) and iTunes library (30GB) at my fingertips on my MacBook Pro's spacious 320GB HDD. The teensy MBA hard drive makes...
