Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ Review The new Pi 3 Model B+ sports a faster 1.4 GHz processor w/ a heat spreader, adds Gigabit Ethernet, along with 2.4GHz and 5GHz IEEE 802.11.b/g/n/ac and promises a 3X bump in networking performance. Benchmarks, a power supply tip, and hands on review in the video!
Zolo Liberty+ Earphones We love Anker's cables, chargers, and batteries. How do their new $149.99 Zolo Liberty+ Wireless Earphones hold up? Find out how they sound, fit, battery life, charging, and how well Bluetooth 5.0 works in the video! (More Liberty+ specs!)
Are the New Unlimited Plans Worth It??? T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and Google Fi all promise unlimited data for a flat rate. Who's got the best plan? Is "unlimited data" really unlimited? Watch the video to find out!
Build Or Buy A New Gaming PC? Jake, aka @Getbackupagain1 tweets "@patricknorton asking for the 15 y/o sitting next to me. If u were wanting a dedicated gaming pc would you build your own or buy one off the stock. #neverbuiltone #hethinkshecan" Bet you can guess our answer... watch the video to find out if you're right!
Your Backup Tips! Episode 166 was our backup special, and we asked you to share you favorite tools and tips! Thanks for sharing, here's the first batch: @scruffdan tweets "I use @arqbackup for both local and off-site backups. It works very well, runs on macOS and Windows. It backups to multiple cloud providers (including the ultra cheap Backblaze B2), and local drives with ease." @lbdwag tweets, "I'm sure I am not the first to say this, but copying from a client to a Windows file server over a network does require the ability to write to NTFS. That is only a local disk issue (i.e. bootcamp volume while in OSX). #TEKTHING 166"
Tom, aka @DinahMoeHumm tweets, “Probably a good idea to buy NAS drives over time from different lots. I had 2 drives die in my Drobo 5N within 2 days. Replaced those & 1 more died. I use dual protection drives.” He adds, “ For backups between systems, I use Resilio Sync”
