Western Digital has gained the honour of releasing the first two-terabyte drives in the market, with units turning up on Australian shelves.
Seagate has released an updated fix for some of its hard drives, the previous version having "bricked" the 500GB capacity Barracuda 7200.11 drives.
Seagate yesterday released a fix to a bug in its current generation of drives that caused them to become undetectable by a computer. Users have found, however, that the fix breaks 500GB drives the fix has since been retracted.
This week, Dell has unveiled a major revamp to its Latitude laptop line with the new E series, anchored by the 15-inch Latitude E6500 and 14-inch E6400.
Seagate last week unveiled a 500GB 2.5-inch notebook drive as well as a 1.5TB desktop hard drive, claiming industry firsts for both.
We take one of Intel's new 34nm SSD drives for a spin and find it a worthy hard disk replacement, delivering massive speed jumps when loading software. But watch out for a penalty when writing data.
It's rare that we see a genuinely new technological paradigm land on retail shelves, but solid state drives, or SSDs, are one such technology. Here are five reasons we're looking forward to their ascendancy.
There's no doubt that Ubuntu is a worthy rival to Windows 7 and even hands Mac OS X a cold dish of nasty in its stellar 9.04 release. Hats off to Mark Shuttleworth and his team: you got game.
We test and compare NAS devices designed to suit a specific set of medium-enterprise requirements.
It's affordable and easy to manage -- two qualities you rarely hear mentioned about storage. We test your RAID options.
Seagate's latest PC hard drives can absorb up to 400 gigabytes of data. The recenty unveiled Barracuda 7200.8 family includes 200GB, 250GB, 300GB and 400GB models for desktop PCs -- up from a maximum of 200GB.
The dawning era of "end to end" security architectures is squeezing customers between the proprietary efforts of two dominant vendors.
The Barracuda XT is a 7200rpm 3.5-inch desktop drive featuring 2TB of storage capacity and a fast Serial ATA (SATA) 6Gb/second interface.
Swelling the ranks of 11.6-inch netbooks, the Asus Eee PC 1101HA impresses with its design and battery, but having to overclock a slower version of Intel's Atom CPU is a dodgy workaround.
HP's biz-minded Mini 5101 is a successor to the Mini 2140 (one of our all-time favourite netbooks). It looks and feels great, but for a premium-price netbook, we expect to get more features, not fewer.
Windows 7 looks like the operating system that we've all been waiting for. Despite its imperfections, it shows a lot of promise for the future while presenting a stable platform that can compete comfortably with OS X.
There's a lot to like in the first beta of Exchange 2010, from storage improvements to new high availability tools and better integration with the cloud, not to mention Outlook Web Access support for Firefox and Safari. But not everyone will be impressed by the lack of a 32-bit GUI management client.
