Plextor's PX-504A DVD Recorder
The Plextor PX-504A lived up to it's hype. It's a fast, reliable drive worthy of Plextor's already solid reputation. I made no coasters!

Kurz vor Ostern haben wir noch etwas Besonderes. Die UV-Aktiven-Scläuche die wir euch Heute vorstellen wollen, werden wohl jeden der eine Wasserkühlung hat begeistern. Vor allen Dingen weil dadurch die Zugabe, von UV-Wasserzusätzen völlig unnötig wird. Mehr über das Aussehen und über die Eigenschaften der Schläuche, findet Ihr in diesem Bericht.

Eumax CPU Cooler
To put my computer under load, I used a free program called Hot CPU Tester Pro 3. It runs a bunch of benchmark tests at the same time over six hours. I felt that six hours was overkill to test the CPU coolers for this type of use. So I just ran the tests for five minutes.

FireWire 3-port PCI ATTO Review
Then we have Firewire. Firewire has not been that of a popular choice when it comes to PC’s. However, actually Firewire has been faster than USB for a longer time. When the USB 1.1 was capable of transferring 12Mbps, Firewire at its first stage was capable of transferring at up to 400Mbps.
