DIY HDD: As any computer enthusiast will attest, being in the computer business for a few years usually means accumulating a pile of spare parts and hardware components. Old hard drives can be repurposed as additional storage in newer systems, or even transformed into creative modding projects with a few extra pieces and a bit of soldering, and then there's this. One such modder, who enjoys tinkering with electronics and PC hardware, turned a retired hard disk drive into a custom disc sander. R

Of all the things that you can’t have too much of — friends, fun, knowledge, butter, bacon — we’d like to add digital storage. Digital files of all types — photos, videos, games — get bigger all the time, much faster than the internal hard drives of laptops and desktops. That’s why portable storage drives are such a hot commodity these days, and the Samsung T7 Shield is one of the best and most durable ones on the market.

Three passengers were killed in the accident. The problem with any assistance system below Level 4—in which a vehicle can operate entirely without

When I first started implementing the SSD1306 OLED on my prototype, I grabbed the quickest and easiest to implement driver I could find - a driver Espressif shipped as part of ESP-BSP that has since been removed. It worked great, updated the screen at about 40 hz, and was very light on resources. However, it only supports a single font, and isn't set up easily to support adding others without doing a fair amount of work to get each glyph into a specific format of C array.

Budget Before anything else, you'll want to figure out how much you're willing to spend on a new hard drive. Compact solid-state drives that use flash memory are pricier than slower and bigger mechanical drives, but they have gone down in price over the last couple of years. Today, you can get a 1TB external SSD for as little as $65 or so. Very high-capacity SSDs tend to be quite pricey, so if you're looking for a lot of storage for not too much money, you'll likely have to opt for a mechanical

In the old times, Javascript was an interpreted language, but since many years ago it is implemented as a JIT (Just-In-Time) compiler, so it can approach speeds closer to the C language. Other implementation caveat here is that Javascript treats bitwise operators as generating 32-bit signed integers. This was avoided using the >
