A RunCore anunciou um ótimo produto para quem tem um notebook e está louco para ter a alta velocidade do USB 3.0.

O RunCore USB 3.0 ExpressCard é um cartão 2 em 1 que se encaixa na praticamente inútil entrada ExpressCard do notebook e tem duas portas USB 3.0 super rápidas e mais um disco SSD com 64 GB de capacidade. Isso quer dizer que além do USB 3.0, com velocidades de 110MB/s e 80MB/s, seu notebook também ganha mais espaço para armazenar seus dados. Gostei!

A RunCore ainda não divulgou nem o preço, nem a data de lançamento do RunCore USB 3.0 ExpressCard.

No último trimestre de 2010, as remessas mundiais de painéis de plasma chegaram a 5,2 milhões de unidades --9% a mais do que no ano anterior--, atingindo recorde, de acordo com levantamento da DisplaySearch divulgado nesta quinta-feira (3).Segundo a empresa de pesquisa, fabricantes como Panasonic, Samsung e LG não conseguiram atender à alta demanda por painéis de plasma.O número surpreende porque as TVs de plasma têm perdido mercado para os aparelhos de LCD e LED. Em 2008, a Pioneer, uma das principais fabricantes de televisores de plasma, anunciou que pararia de produzi-los.Leia mais (04/02/2011 - 17h53)

J. Dzhugashvili writes "In the wake of Intel's announcement that all existing Sandy Bridge chipsets have a bug that causes degraded Serial ATA performance, top-tier motherboard makers Asus and Gigabyte have made public statements regarding their return policy for affected boards. Asus is promising 'hassle-free return and/or replacement', while Gigabyte says owners of affected boards are entitled to a full refund or replacement—and it recommends that users seek refunds. Both companies are advising users to contact the original place of purchase to proceed. On a related note, Gigabyte has announced that new Sandy Bridge motherboards with bug-free chipsets will be available in volume in April."

Intel Discovers Bug in 6-Series Chipset: Our Analysis

URL: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4142/intel-discovers-bug-in-6series-chipset-begins-recall

In our Sandy Bridge review I pointed out that Intel was unfortunately very conservative in one area of the platform: its chipset. Although the 6-series chipset finally brought native 6Gbps SATA to Intel platforms it failed to fix issues with 23.976 fps video playback. Intel also failed to deliver a chipset that can support SNB's processor graphics as well as overclocking. Today, things just got even more disappointing.

Intel just announced that it has identified a bug in the 6-series chipset, specifically in its SATA controller. Intel states that "In some cases, the Serial-ATA (SATA) ports within the chipsets may degrade over time, potentially impacting the performance or functionality of SATA-linked devices such as hard disk drives and DVD-drives.". I don't know the specifics of the bug yet, but Intel very rarely issues statements like this so it's likely quite serious. 

The fix requires new hardware, which means you will have to exchange your motherboard for a new one. Intel hasn't posted any instructions on how the recall will be handled other than to contact Intel via its support page or contact the manufacturer of your hardware directly. In speaking with motherboard manufacturers it seems they are as surprised by this as I am. 

Intel will begin shipping the fixed version of the chipset in late February.  The recall will reduce Intel's revenue by around $300 million and cost around $700 million to completely repair and replace affected systems.

Read on for more information on the nature of the bug and what it means for current and future SNB owners.
