Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Scan-tini Personal Document Scanner Review
TestFreaks posted a review on the Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Scan-tini Personal Document Scanner

Up for review today I’ve got another Canon product, but not a camera or anything like that it’s a scanner from their office or business line of products. The scanner is small and meant to be portable and easy to use, it’s called the imageFormula P-150 or Scan-tini. The scanner can be used with the power of just your USB port, and it’s rather small so you can toss it in your bag for scanning on the go. One of my favorite features of this scanner is the fact that it has the software built into it, you don’t even have to install anything to use it. The Scan-tini is quiet and fast and produces very good results, so read on to learn more..

Western Digital Caviar Green (Advanced Format Drive) 1 TB Hard Disk Drive Review
TechARP posted a Western Digital Caviar Green (Advanced Format Drive) 1 TB Hard Disk Drive Review

Western Digital divides their internal hard drives into three distinct families - the WD Caviar Blue for their basic hard drives, the WD Caviar Green for their quieter, cooler hard drives and the WD Caviar Black for their performance-grade hard drives.

According to Western Digital, Caviar Green hard disk drives offer an average power saving of 4-5 watts over their competitors, a feat that they claim is equivalent to reducing CO2 emissions by 13.8 kg per year. Of course, that's a mere drop in the ocean but if you can help save the environment while you work or play on your computer, why not?

Today, we will look at new Western Digital Caviar Green AFD (Advanced Format Drive) 1 TB hard disk drive - the WD10EARS. Let's find out how well this drive performs!

Asus P6X58D-E Motherboard Review
Clunk.org.uk posted a review on the Asus P6X58D-E Motherboard

The X58 chip set has been around for almost two years, and in that time, we've seen a succession of motherboards, all purporting to offer something extra over their predecessors, today we have a recent offering from Asus in the form of their P6X58D-E (P6X from here on in!). The P6X is a fully loaded mid range motherboard with all the usual trimmings, only this time we have two SATA III 6GB ports and two USB 3.0 ports to add a little future proofing. To make things a little more interesting, Asus have added some nice overclocking features, so we are going to go at this from a "budget" overclocking perspective.

The P6X is priced around £180, so while it's not the cheapest out there, it's by no means the most expensive and should be competing firmly against the likes of Gigabyte's GA-X58A-UD3R, so how will it perform? Read on to find out...

Thermaltake BlacX Duet Review
ASE Labs posted a review on the Thermaltake BlacX Duet

A few years ago, Thermaltake released the BlacX. It was one of the first (if not the first) hard drive docking stations for sale. Thermaltake was the company to really push the product to market. Now, Thermaltake is upping the ante by supporting two drives at once.

techPowerUp posted a review on the Vantec NexStar 2.5" SuperSpeed USB 3.0 enclosure

Vantec has taken their NexStar 2.5" enclosure and upgraded the interface to USB 3.0 while keeping the looks identical. We take it for a speed to see if it makes sense for the small form factor.

Siig SuperSpeed USB 3.0 4-Port Hub Review
iGadget Life posted a review on the Siig SuperSpeed USB 3.0 4-Port Hub

USB 3.0 is all the rage, it’s the new in-thing, so as with USB 2.0 we’ve got accessories for it. One such accessory is the often overlooked USB hub, on USB 2.0 they’re like as dime a dozen, but with USB3 things have gone up in price. On motherboards and add-in cards, you’re usually limited to only one of two USB 3.0 ports as of now, so if you need more you’ll need a hub obviously. Today for review I’ve got a very well made four port USB hub from Siig, yeah it’s USB hub, not much exciting, but it is one of the nicest hubs I’ve seen and it works great.
