  1. Your spreadsheet has some errors. You only need 13 drives of 8TB to get 104 TB capacity, so the actual price is a bit lower too. And you should only need 17 6TB drives to get over 100TB as well, so that price should be lower as well. --------------------------------- Edit: Forget about it, I'm dumb.
  2. Everki Beacon, everytime. A bit more expensive (90 € over here in germany) but well worth the money. Fits a 15 inch Notebook with ease, has plenty of room to spare and an imho very good separated compartement for all your other stuff. Probably the most important thing though: livelong warranty without a hassle. My Beacon ripped apart, because i heavily overloaded it (to the point that i barely could close it, which killed the zipper). Just had to send a picture and they sent me a new one without even requiring me to send my backpack to them as a proof. And this was 5 years after i bought it.

  4. It appears to me that you only had really bad luck. I'm regularly taking pictures with my Z2 while being under water and never had any damage.
  5. Thanks to the sponsors for sending the team to CES this year. Great content uptil now. Also: Linus you should really ask Luke for clothing tips ...
  6. New Media PC incoming, hopefully. Thanks to Intel for making another giveaway possible.
  7. First: Thanks to Intel for sponsoring the chips for this awesome community here! If I should win the processor, I'd probably swap out the 3770K in my gaming rig for the 5820K and the 3770K would finally replace the Core2Quad that's sitting in my server. This will hopefully allow me to stream encoded videos to my mobile devices, so that I don't have to manually copy a compressed version of every file I'd like to watch while being on the road.
  8. I really like that I can finally run 2 top tier graphic cards in SLI without having to worry about my PSU again. The Power Efficiency of the 900 series is just off the chart.
  9. I'm owning a Z2 and with enabled stamina modus I easily get 2 days of battery life out of it, often even 3 days. Since the the main features didn't really change all that much to the Z3 I'm expecting that this graphs are indeed legit.
  10. Ok then I don't quite get it, sorry. The pixels are layed out and spaced exactly the same way as they are on any 16:9 display which is the industry standard since around 2009, after panel manufacturers stopped producing 16:10 panels for desktop monitors.
  11. It's the difference between 16:10 and 16:9 not more and not less.
  12. Ok thank you for the heads up, I didn't research the the exact models so my general assumption seems to be off in this specific case. I partially agree with you, but since we're talking about a school notebook there's really no need to go 1080p if you can save money for it. It's not like he's trying to game on that thing and for word/excel etc. 1366x768 is totally fine.
  13. Why shouldn't you? It's no big deal on a 13'' display...
  14. The SSD is obviously a big upgrade over an SSHD (although I find that an SSHD does improve speed quite a bit overall) BUT I would !never! go with a Sandy Bridge over Ivy Bridge when it comes to notebooks. The power efficiency really does make a huge difference so that the imho most important characteristic of a notebook, the battery life, tends to be much better with Ivy Bridge.
  15. To ACTUALLY help you read: He already tried this and it didn't work for him.
