Back and Front shots

The VelociRaptor WD3000HLFS 300GB has higher performance than that of the previous generation, WD3000GLFS 300GB and the designers have also changed the fining arrangement to horizontal rather than vertical as shown in the GLFS model.

Following the successful tried and proven build lines of previous WD Raptors with the 3 GB/s interface, we found that with the 16 MB cache the 3.5-inch SATA Hard Drive Raptors can deliver staggering performance.  They are approximately 35% faster than the older models but with a commensurate percentage drop in power requirements.
 
I guess the name “Raptors” came from the prehistoric carnivore that could out run anything on the planet and just hunt the prey down.  Well these hard drives are fast, spinning at 10,000 rpm, so it’s little wonder that they benchmark so well.  It’s obvious that the VelociRaptor has retained a lot of the performance based on its 10,000 rpm spindle speed.

Edubook

Sometimes the real surprising things in life come in small packages.  Particularly when they combine innovation, usefulness and amazing value for money. 

I'm talking about the Norhtec Gecko Edubook.  This is a netbook aimed at a specific market: the same market as the OLPC which aims to bring a laptop to every child in the developing world.
While that is a laudable goal and an immense market by itself, I think the market for this little beauty is even bigger!


I can feel a big review coming on which is sort of ridiculous given the low cost of this product but there is so much to tell about the Edubook which has gotten me excited all right, so hang on!

Now I am faced with the almost impossible task to do justice to this incredibly cool looking slate PC in just 3 days. 

So how did we fare?

Read more...I personally haven't heard of the company Noctua until now.  But after looking at their company website, the reason why is because they are an Austria.  But they are a well established company with a wide range of CPU coolers, Fans, and Thermal Compounds.  This NH-U12P CPU cooler is a massive cooler with 4 dual heat pipes while keeping noise in mind.

Read more...The Thermaltake WingMA is a bit of a departure from Thermaltake's typical gaming and enthusiast cases, but this case is meant to appeal to a more general and wider audience.
With its simple construction, and stylish smaller design, this is a great product for a budget PC.
