Building a NAS? Skip the Performance Drives
A while ago I was considering putting low-powered 5400 RPM drives into a NAS. I was worried about performance, but Tom's Hardware shows us that drive speed isn't the bottleneck, and how slower drives can even beat faster ones. More » -

Samsung's New Ultra Slim 30-Nanometer Flash Memory Chips Will Cause Gadget Shrinkage
With stacks of eight being only 0.6mm thick, Samsung's new 30-nanometer NAND chips are practically anorexic, but for once that's a good thing. Thinner chips like these could bring smaller gadgets and hopefully also lead to lower SSD prices. More » -

Samsung's DualView TL225 Won't Meet My Cam-Whoring Needs
Lousy at framing self-portraits? Yeah, me too. Thankfully Samsung's here to help with the double-screen-toting DualView TL225. Well, at least they would be helping if the camera wasn't as laggy and unresponsive as Wired found it to be. More » -

Tango Autonomous Vacuum Has A Built-In Upskirt Camera
Is it really necessary to stick 13 sensors, a camera, extra gyroscopes, and crash sensors into these vacuuming robots? I'm all for improved gadgets, but I just plain don't want my vacuum able to take photos of my knickers. More » -

Samsung's 30-inch AMOLED TV: 3D Without the Dizziness (Still Needs Silly Glasses)
Another of the treats on show at FPD 2009 is Samsung's AMOLED 3D TV prototype. The 240Hz panel is just 2.5-mm thick, has a million-to-1 contrast, and Samsung claims its latest shutter-glasses technology reduces the dizziness often associated with 3D. More » -

Samsung's Hybrid Desktop Notebook Concept: 14-inch AMOLED Screen, 2.7mm Thin
I'm not sure how practical this design would be on the road, but it sure looks sweet. The stunning screen supports a resolution of 1366 x 768, and because it's AMOLED, has a 1000000:1 contrast ratio, and 300cd/m2 brightness. More » -

Samsung's 3mm-Thick HDTV
At just 3mm thick, Samsung's latest 40-inch LED backlit LCD HDTV is as thin as Sony's XEL-1 OLED TV. It almost makes the 1-inch thin Panasonic Z1 Plasma look chubby, and Samsung's current LED LCD TVs (about 1.2-inches) look fat. More » -

Apple Tax Repealed? Comparisons Suggest It's So
Our friends at Laptop compiled a chart comparing the new $999 white unibody MacBook to similarly weighted 13" laptops from Dell, Acer and Samsung within $100. There are tradeoffs, but at least at this price level, Apple fights on even ground, and makes up for lacks (no SD slot, smaller HDD, less RAM) with perks (LED backlighting, multitouch trackpad) and a much longer stated battery life. Feel free to scream it out below, or check Laptop for the full chart and spec rundown. [Laptop] -
