0 7-Zip Review

Hello everyone, I will be reviewing 7-Zip today. 7-Zip is an open source file archiver for Windows. I stumbled upon 7-Zip after years of using WinRAR, and I can say I've been missing out for years. First things first, I can easily say that 7-Zip is the fastest file compressor out there. I've compared it to the other popular file archivers such as WinRAR and WinZip, and it turned out that 7-Zip was significantly faster than both of them when it came to file compression. 7-Zip also offers the highest compression rate among all of its competitors which is the main reason that we all use file archivers nowadays. It's also open source and completely...

0 Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro Review

Hello everyone! Today I will be reviewing the external sound card I bought lately, Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro. The reason I bought this card was mainly because I wasn't satisfied with my laptop's onboard audio. Now, I also use it with my desktop computer instead of using the onboard function. I can say it's easy to feel a difference. When you open the box, you'll see the USB stick which is the card, a pair of headphones with microphone attached, (I must say, they're a lot better than the 30-40$ Sennheisers I often picked up for my iPhone) driver CD, (you can also install the drivers on the internet if you wish) and a USB extension cable. (since...

0 Steelseries Sensei RAW

Hello! My old faithful Logitech G9X broke as of yesterday, so I decided to set sail for a new mouse. I ended up buying a Steelseries Sensei RAW since I'm a big fan of Steelseries products. I have to say, I really loved the G9X, and I always thought I would buy a new one if the one I had broke, but I just felt like I should go for a change this time. First things first, I must say I'm really impressed with the product. It comes in a nice small box with its manual, a Steelseries sticker, and the mouse itself. It works as soon as you plug it in with no problems at all. I suggest you download Steelseries Engine from the website to fine tune your...

0 Virtual Private Servers (VPS)

Hello everyone! After a week, we are together with a new post again. Today's topic is Virtual Private Servers. First things first, as always, let's start with learning what a Virtual Private Server (VPS) is. A VPS is a Virtual Machine, hosted on the internet. It's like having your own computer which you can access remotely via the internet. You can use a VPS for many things, such as hosting a (IRC, games, VoIP, web, email, etc.) server, using it to test software out without modifying your own computer, downloading & uploading, (if your internet is slow, you can download stuff on your VPS and use it instead) or just playing around on it. A...

0 Managed Server

Hello there! Haven't been able to write lately because of New Year's Eve and all that stuff. Happy (late!) New Year to everyone to start with, I hope you had fun! Today's topic is Managed Server, also known as Managed Dedicated Server. I want to share information about what a managed server is, since I talked too much about data recovery for long time, and it feels like it's a good time to change that. A managed server is a server, as you might appreciate, where the hardware and the software is already included. They also have system administrators which are working on the servers all the time, and they are obligated with maintaining the...
