STORAGE DEVICE



My example of storage device is the ASUS USB-N11 wireless and USB Adaptor.

This Adaptor was made for users who require a convenient way to quickly create a protected wireless network that allows fast data transfers and for users to simply push a button on the adapter then router to create a protected wireless environment without the complicated setup. It is much recommended because it supports a whole range of different operating systems like windows, linux and Mac OS. It is a 802.11n wireless standard that can provide data transfers of up to 5 times faster throughtout 90mbps than 11g standards. The ASUS USB-N11 comes with a WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) button to simplify setup for allowing the users to setup a protected networking environment with ease.


The USB-N11 will support the following formats:

Windows: Windows 2000/XP/Vista 32/64bit versions;
Linux – source code provided for driver build;
MAC: WiFi Utility (Mac 10.3/10.4/10.5) and drivers.

INPUT DEVICE



I chose this as an example for my input device because it is unique.. A trackball with bluetooth? Isn’t it amazing..


Let me introduce to you the Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse with Bluetooth, This is a full-featured laser mouse that allows you to navigate your documents and gives a control when there's no room to move a mouse, then switches to mouse mode with the push of a button. It gives your cursor control in tight spaces and sufaces. Yes, It has a unique scroll ball that provides easy and intuitive 360 degrees scrolling Bluetooth wireless. The Bluetooth connectivity offers a 30 feet of range and it doesn't use up a USB port. The trackball offers an excellent, precise, and smooth motion. The ball can be operated with a mere single finger. You can use this motion to zoom in on images and/or control audio volumes. The trackball proves to be good for general-purposes and for browsing, it might be difficult to be operated for gaming and graphic editing. This trackball is advisable for those professional’s whose working in a big computers like in a power stations and etc.

ATI Radeon RV740 Video Card


ATI Radeon RV740 video card has been kind enough to put the thing through its paces. This is the company's first 40nm video card and while the review should all be taken with a grain of salt -- being "done with beta drivers and an early engineering sample board" -- preliminary results are quite positive. The card performs "fairly close to a Radeon HD 4850," something you don't often hear about in cards retailing for less than a hundred bucks. In fact, the reviewer was so taken by the card's performance at this price point that he predicts that this thing will be responsible for nothing less than "another shift in current mid-range pricing." But don't wait until the April release date to see this thing in action -- hit the read link for the big review.

500GB Micro-holographic Disc




a 500 gigabyte micro-holographic disk, which measures just like the traditional DVD disk. Although the product was created for the archive industry, the company looks forward to sell it to the general customer.

It is worth mentioning that micro-holographic discs outrun the storage capacity even of a Blu-ray disc due to the fact that they store data in 3D instead of pits used on the traditional disc's surface. In recent times the company managed to come up with significant improvements in the new material that considerably expands the amount of light that can be mirrored by the holograms.

With an increase in reflectivity, the storage capacity of the disc increases as well. The new technology will facilitate players to be developed which are backwards compatible with the current technologies such as those of DVD and Blu-ray.
