This is from The Register, so take it with a grain of salt…but this kinda makes sense. They couldn’t be stuck at 2tb forever right? According to people familiar with the company’s plans, a 3TB Constellation ES drive with a 6Gbit/s SAS interface will arrive later this year. The Constellation ES is a replacement for the Barracuda ES and […]
Read moreHere’s an obvious article for some, but it was just last year that I was not running any UPS on any of my systems….then a back to back power surge destroyed the master hard drive on my HP MediaSmart WHS. Thanks to folks in our forums, I’ve now been UPS-protected ever since, and a big APC fan! It’s just not […]
Read moreThis reminds me of a mixture between the upcoming Boxee remote and the old Gyration mice based on its controls. There’s a video of it in action, but it’s not of the highest quality to see everything. Still, seems like a cool idea. Shenzhen Feishu Technology has introduced the Fly Mouse Cordless Air Mouse / Keyboard […]
Read moreAny article with "WTF" in the title has to be good. When it’s the HD Guru looking at what a display has to go through to get THX certified, and what that means – even better.

As we all know that never happened – talking about the driver here, Fiji just shouldn’t have happened ;).

Ultimately, 43 winning installations were awarded in 15 categories, some of which are showcased throughout the May/June issue of Electronic House magazine. This year the categories included: Best Overall […]
Read moreI think any time Google gets involved it’s for the better of competition. Not sure this will have an effect on the HTPC crowd since it appears more geared for set top boxes, but still it’s an intriguing prospect having a giant like them compete with the standard Comcasts of the world. The technology—designed to open set-top boxes, TVs […]
Read moreNot technically an HTPC case, but no reason it couldn’t work as one. Pretty sleek if you were to put this in the corner of your entertainment shelf. The Array looks a very different beast – a chassis specifically designed for home server use, offering six hard drive bays, a 300W PSU onboard with silent fan and sized to […]
Read moreA lot of titles this week, but there really isn’t anything I’m super excited with. I would like to take this moment to comment on how dreadfully awful Leap Year was.
