  14. Insulin resistance cracks aside, one can make jokes better: "... supersized to turn your blood into syrup..." because many of us got there with immune or environmental causes, such as food poisoning. Like tech, correlation is not the same as causation.

  15. Great economic points in the video. For another video editing and transcoding drama video, consider.... A pre-built hardware component that takes you in the direction Facebook is going with their data center flash storage.

    "NVMe/PCIe Ability Flash Array’s... dual-port access to NVMe / PCIe drives providing redundant paths to the SSD."

  16. Tunnel-bear commercials illustrate the way many of us wanted ISPs to operate all along. The large ones could provide the same protection and anonymity as integrated or add-on services, but they just don't bother. Over time, competition should help drive the trend toward more complete Internet access services.

  19. I lived very close to that Micron plant they showed. It was a huge disappointment when it opened because they didn't provide the vast amount of jobs they said they would. Now though, 25 years later other companies (Adobe mainly), have moved in next door and that whole hillside has become quite the technology hub

  24. FUN FACT: SSD'S CANT BE REINSTALLED, MORE THAN 4 TIMES SO, IF U RESET OR INSTALL NEW OPERATING SYSTEM YOU WILL HAVE TO GET A NEW ONE AT THE 4TH TIME.

  29. Random question: i have 2 1TB HDDs.. i’m having trouble detecting the two at the same time in explorer. Sometimes the two are visible, and most of the time only one appears. Does this have something to do with my mobo? Do some mobos cant carry 2 1TB HDDs? Thanks so much guys! My motherboard is gigabyte F2A68HM-DS2..

  30. The nand flash modules in a SSD are kind of like many smaller SSDs running in RAID 0.

  31. Wait, so a 3.5 inch drive packed full of 3D-NAND chips, then has a connecting cable to a M.2 slot would be insanely fast? I want Royalties!
