The Western Digital Sentinel DX4000 is a small office storage server designed for file sharing and backing up data on as many as 25 computers. While the thought of working with a server may be daunting for novice and immediate users, setting up the Western Digital Sentinel DX4000 is simple and easy.
There was a time when only large corporations used RAID storage. It was partly because only large corporations had enough data to warrant the use of RAID storage and partly because only large corporations could afford to purchase and maintain such high-end storage. RAID storage is still used by large corporations, but today you’ll find that RAID storage is also used by small businesses and individuals.
Extremely fast, large capacity hard drives aren’t luxury items for high definition video editors, music producers, 3D animators, graphic designers and the like—they’re a necessity.
Thunderbolt is a high-speed interface developed by Intel and brought to market by Apple in early 2011. Thunderbolt combines PCI Express and DisplayPort into a serial data interface, so it’s backward compatible with DisplayPort hardware, and uses the same connector.
External hard drives continue to offer more and more capacity. That’s nothing new. But Western Digital’s My Book Live Duo drives are new, and so are many of the neat features they offer. Part external hard drive, part NAS device and part cloud storage, the My Book Live Duo drives are as versatile as external hard drives can get.
There are plenty of gifts you can give to computer users that will tickle their fancy, but not all of them are ideal for people who are always on the go. Sure, a 5.1-channel sound system is great for home use, but nobody wants to carry that around on a business trip or on vacation. Certainly there are better ideas for mobile users.
USB 3.0 is about 10 times faster than USB 2.0, making it a terrific upgrade, and a great way to save time by cutting down on file transfer times. Unfortunately, most computers in use today don’t have integrated USB 3.0 ports.
If local area networks (LANs) were like plumbing, then Ethernet cables would be the pipes and routers the valve switchers. But data bits have a huge advantage over fluids. They don't require conduits to flow through your home or office to still be useful.
Why should you care about cloud storage? The two biggest reasons are convenience and security: enabling you and others you’ve afforded access to global retrieval of your documents, photos, videos and other files as well as insuring data backup to an alternate location, too.
It’ll happen sooner or later. Your computer’s hard drive will fill up, especially if you have an older system that came with relatively small storage capacity compared to more recent iterations. It doesn’t cost a lot of money to buy and install a hard drive with much larger capacity, and it’s a pretty easy job as long as you’re not fearful of doing it.
Identity theft and the gathering of personal information is big business, at least for the people determined to collect it. It’s one thing to innocently throw away a credit card bill only to have someone find the information in the trash and use it to their advantage.
Fast ports and sleek hard drives are meant to click. That is, if LaCie has its way. The computer-accessory maker has begun shipping a trio of aluminum-encased external storage devices, the F.A. Porsche-Designed Desktop Hard Drive in 1- and 2-terabyte versions and the 500GB F.A. Porsche-Designed Portable Hard Drive.
As a working photographer, the center of the universe is your camera bag and its contents. Your cameras and lenses are the tools of your trade. As you may have noted, both are mentioned in plural because just as you wouldn’t jump out of an airplane without a backup parachute, you shouldn’t attempt to photograph an emotionally spiked, non-repeatable event armed with only one camera.
Since weddings are quick paced, one-shot events, backing up your image files as you work is imperative. Unless you plan on carrying a pocketful of memory cards, you’ll need a device to store your files so you can unload your memory card and pop it back into the camera. (Always carry spare cards in your kit.)
It’s quite common to have an old computer die on you and not have it repaired, especially if it’s more than a few years old. But what can you do with the old carcass? If a computer dies for any reason other than a dead hard drive, you can always convert the old drive into an external unit, and grab important files off the drive in the process.
