Intel Core i7-3930K Sandy Bridge-E Processor - The Core i7-3930K runs at about 100 MHz
slower than the Core i7-3960X and the program and
application performance seen with that frequency gap is about what you
would expect: 2.5% in areas where the CPU performance is a straight
bottleneck. If the perfo

About 3-4 years ago - when perpendicular recording was the most popular buzz-word - it's been predicted we would be using >6TB drives by now. I guess either the prediction was bad or, the market is being manipulated. Looking at the latest HDD pricing fiasco, it is the later.
As for the HDD itself. Thanks, nice. One can only hope that it's not going to be the next death-star. Also, the pricing has to come down to the 120-150 range for this drive to start selling in large volumes; at that price, it is not a viable alternative for home users that are planning to build a NAS. Just look at the per-gigabyte cost of available alternatives and you'll see what I mean.

You built the factory to the wrong location. Your bad, so you should take responsibility and swallow the costs. BTW, I am sure your insurance company will compensate you for it. So, get over it and don't pump up the prices artificially because you can only loose more with that - people will have switched to SDD by the time you rebuild your factories.

That is good news. It would be even better if Ballmer left, too. |

There's only one factory in Thailand that services the entire hard drive industry? Prices are inflated much like gas gets inflated. I won't buy a hard drive at these prices. SSD's on the other hand are the same price even if smaller by over 900GB but the performance is well worth it. Hard drives are still the biggest bottleneck in a PC not to mention console still.
The 3D was always a gimmick since they really have nothing new to offer consumers besides a slight refresh on the same TV's not to mention remade movies. I picked up a new 1080p 120Hz LED 42" for 340 dollars. It's for the kids and I can't see spending more than five hundred on a TV lcd or plasma even unless it was 55" or bigger. I have a Panasonic plasma that has astounding picture quality not to mention features. It blows away any LCD I've seen and the only ones that look better are the newer Panasonics and Samsungs. When I say look better I mean slightly as you won't be able to tell much of a difference with HD cable and the real difference comes when you watch a blu ray. My panny is about five or six years old now and I can't justify upgrading the TV until I see some actual improvements. |

Why do you enjoy sexual relations with deceased people?
Hopefully you understand the actual lesson here. |
