TechPowerUp: ADATA SE800 Portable SSD 1 TB Review
The ADATA SE800 is an NVMe based external SSD, which means it offers much better performance than earlier external storage. In our testing we saw speeds of up to 1 GB/s, which, paired with the 1 TB capacity on the SE800, makes it an excellent choice if you want to move a lot of data around.

Anandtech: How Good (or Bad) is a $100 Laptop? The Coda Spirit Review
Back in late 2014, I remember Brett reviewing the HP Stream 11-inch laptop for $200. At the time, it was a great little machine, offering all you need to do basic work flow and get online with a dual-core Atom and a low resolution display. Fast forward to 2019, and I picked up a 1080p IPS 13-inch clamshell laptop, with Win 10 Home and storage expansion, for just $100. On paper, this thing is epic for the price. But is it actually worth it?

This sits as their flagship Kraken gaming headset and brings along with it many of the features that we saw in the Tournament Edition, but also adds in an active noise-canceling microphone, RGB lighting on the earcups, a USB-only connection, and controls on the headset itself rather than on a controller on your desk.
