Thermaltake BlacX Duet



February 2nd, 2010. Filed under: Enclosures-3 Reviews.

I have been familiar with ThermalTake products for years, having built my first custom computer using one of their Xaser-II cases. I’m also familiar with their typical over-engineering. In the case of the Xaser-II, the front door was made of ¼-inch cold-rolled steel, and weighed close to five pounds. Throughout the years, that case has served many purposes and held together perfectly due to its stellar build quality. Up now is the BlacX Duet, an external hard drive dock for internal SATA hard drives. The “Duet” is for two drives being simultaneously accessible by eSATA and USB with this product. Continue reading

Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch



January 24th, 2010. Filed under: Peripherals-3 Reviews.

Wacom is the undisputed leader of pressure-sensitive tablet interfaces, and they are expanding their entry-level line with the latest Bamboo tablet, the first tablet to offer multi-touch input alongside the traditional stylus. As a Mac user, I consider myself lucky to be using one of the best multi-touch trackpads available. It took a month to get used to, but my MacBook Pro trackpad seems to respond to my thoughts. I’ve discovered just how to touch the surface to elicit a response, and multi-touch gestures are seamless. It’s a real time-saver, and it’s incredibly comfortable because of its large size. The Bamboo Pen and Touch looks like a large trackpad, which could be an even better experience if implemented properly. Continue reading

The NexStar Vault from Vantec offers to remedy this solution with a simple hardware-based locking system to secure data, while still offering the convenience of a system without passwords or slow software-intensive encryption techniques.

Today we will be taking a look at one of Microsoft’s newest products, the Mobile Mouse 4000. Like most newer mobile mice, it sports a cropped form factor as well as a very small “nano transceiver.” Continue reading
