Cybern Technicals 2.008 – Everything about high technology improvements

Hardware

External hard disk in book form

These Hardbox external drive cases should come in pretty handy. For one thing, we all know that having books around makes you seem smarter. Plus, if some thieves happen to break into your house, they just might be stupid enough to think it’s a real book. Nobody wants to steal those.

The enclosure supports 3.5 inch SATA I or II drives and connects to your PC via USB. There’s no fan, instead it uses the fake page detailing on the edges as a heat sink, keeping it extremely quiet. The power supply is built-in so the AC cord doesn’t need a large transformer, but that does add to the enclosure’s size. It has a physical write protection switch on the back, and a ‘Backup’ button for manually starting a backup of your data. At $300, you better hope a burglar isn’t into classic literature.

Hanging Printer Concept

Our current complaint with our printer is that it takes up too much space around the office, both in the horizontal and the vertical, that we need one individual shelf just to accommodate the thing.

Designed by Jin Hee Kim, Hyung Il Kim & Woo Seok Park, this new concept of hanging printer sure can saves your desk space. The bulk of its components are actually underneath the desk. Yes, it’s a standard printer, but you might wanna try it for your office’s space.

Samsung’s S2 MP3 Player-Pebble

This new S2 MP3 player by Samsung might be one of the smallest MP3 players ever. Measuring out at 0.65 x 1.62 x 1.66-inches, and only weighing 0.03-pound, it has rightfully earned its nickname, which is Pebble.

Basically, the S2 comes with 1GB of internal memory and also an FM tuner. It plays MP3, WMA, and OGG, and comes in a few colors including green, purple, red, black, and white. The battery life on the S2 is pretty nice, although, considering its size, 13 hours isn’t too long on a single charge. However, it only takes 2 hours to fully charge, which isn’t too bad. There are a few buttons on the device, basically just play, pause, volume and playback options. If you want a small MP3 player then the Pebble may be one to consider.
