Intel - "Talk to the Product Manager" Live Chat & Giveaway

So what is this?

 

This is a very rare opportunity to do a LIVE Q&A session with one of the product managers who worked on the 730 series enthusiast grade SSD from Intel. He and I have connected already briefly and aside from trade secrets, you guys are welcome to ask any questions you want about the product, the development cycle, and what it's like behind the scenes working on an important product like this at Intel!

 

Jeff Fick, SSD engineer for Intel will be joining us for a Q&A and suggestion session on March 17th, 2014 at 11am Pacific time

 

Click here to find out what time it is in your time zone

 

This will be a great opportunity to talk about your ideas, ask questions, and give feedback on this exciting new product. 

 

Not only that, but we'll be giving away TWO Intel 730 series SSDs on the show... Because Intel is sending me the SSDs and putting me in charge of shipping the prizes, the giveaway will be INTERNATIONAL.

 

It will be streamed at http://twitch.tv/linustech, and the giveaway we're running is for LIVE VIEWERS ONLY.

 

The main topic of the stream is basically up to you guys and I'd love to see you post your ideas in this thread ahead of time so we can figure out how to structure this to make it as entertaining and educational as possible!

 

I want this to be a lot of fun and super interactive, so please post your ideas in this forum thread. I will definitely be taking more suggestions during the show as well, but it's great to have a starting point.. Folks who post in the thread versus trying to get their questions featured live *will* have a bit of an advantage!

 

How do I win the swag?

 

The winner will be chosen randomly from the live viewers of the stream during a random period, so make sure you're paying attention!

 

1. Make sure you're registered for Linus Tech Tips forum and signed in while you're watching the live stream

2. Make sure you're watching from somewhere that you'll have access to a browser

3. Tune into the stream right at the beginning and make sure you're paying attention!

This is an excellent SSD (and looks great imo) and wonder what was the fastest stable speed they have achieved on this 730 SSD. :D

Are the teams who work on products like this able to exert any pressures on other teams working on co-products at Intel? For instance teams that are working on SATAe? I can only imagine your team is passionate about its product and already super excited to take this to the next level...?

"I've always been mad, I know I've been mad, like the most of us are...very hard to explain why you're mad, even if you're not mad..."
