Anyone familiar with accubattery android app or any other app useful for determining the age and health of the battery? I'm particularly interested in accuracy. My new S7 does not last as long as I expected.
We are the world wide number one sale. Check one the datasheet. I'm not the storage guy so I don't have all of the info but I'll update as I learn more.

I inherited my Yoga from my coworker and he had removed the restore partition. I want to restore the hard drive to how it came from the factory including the original partition structure. I have created the USB restore drive from another Thinkpad Yoga but I get an error when I boot from it and...

Storage Spaces Direct and Storage Replica look the most interesting to me.
The nano server might make a decent NAS. Dedup is included.
What solutions have you found for replacing the domain controller when small companies get rid of their SBS boxes and migrate toward web hosted email? Particularly when they need some locally shared storage.The idea being to have as few server type machines as possible.
My goal was to replace the lights in some bedside table lamps with something more efficient than incandecent. I do not have a dimmer. I was concerned about using LEDs because they are very directional and the function of these lights needs a 360 degree light dispersion. I found these 5000k...

Does anyone have a favorite model of 3.5 to 2.5" drive adapter bracket? I've seen some that are supposed to fit 2 drives per bracket, but then some reviews (Amazon) describe how hard they are to work on and how the holes were drilled to the wrong size. Stuff that doesn't show up in the specs...
Now that my S4 has completely crashed for the first time and the only recovery method left was wipe and recover, I'm left searching for a way to make adequate backups.
Luckily most of my data was synced to the cloud and the only thing I seem to have lost was my S Memos, and background and lock...
I'm looking at getting some sata to molex connectors to match a laptop hard drive to an older PSU. However there's a warning about making sure I'm not working with a hard drive that requires 3.3V. The product manual for the Momentus 5400.6 is ambiguous between sata specs and product spec as far...
I'm working with 6 in-ceiling speakers that I know nothing about. They all run to one of 2 wall mounted volume knobs.
In the previous configuration the lines continued on to a 6 line speaker switch alongside other speakers and then to an AV reciever. I may be able to get the model...
I'm looking into getting an H61 Express mb and dropping it into a low profile case I already have. Has anything about the power supply specs changed in the last 5 years that would keep me from using a Gigabyte GA-H61N-USB3 with a CASETRONIC LPF-200CP 200 Watt Power Supply (20 wire connector + 4...

Our new TV is Internet connected, DVD connected, roku connected, and 3D. And it is still difficult to find something 3D to play with.
I'm I accidentally in front of the curve? Are there worthwhile 3D DVDs out there?
I'm having trouble getting audio to come out at my TV when I play youtube or Hulu video over HDMI from my laptop. Strangely I can play system sounds or iTunes just fine. Any ideas?
Time for me to get a TV. The fiance wants it so I'm a gonna get it. ;)
I still have not had a chance to read up on what technical specs I should get if I could get it but my biggest problem is finding a range that will fit the space. If my calculations are correct I can fit a 50" diagonal TV in...

Anybody heard anything about the newer PFC/APFC power supplies requiring pure sine wave UPSs to function properly? News to me. Maybe we all already have psw UPSs so nobody's brought it up! :smile:

I know there are a few threads around here that have information about LED flashlights but it would be nice to have this information in the same place.
I bought a Cree Ultrafire c3 a few months ago. I don't remember why I picked this model but it probably came down to size and price.
