RAID Array - What Is It And What Types Are There ?
RAID stands for "Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks"
Marketing and advertising firms representing industry RAID manufacturers have been attempting to change the accepted acronym to stand for "redundant array of independent disks" as a means of dis-associating a "low cost" expectation from the RAID technology. The truth is that RAID can be cheap and is an easy way of expanding the storage capacity of your home PC. If you have multiple drives for storage on your PC it is likely that you are using a type of RAID at the moment.

Turtle Beach Ear Force AK-R8 and the older HPA2 version - Pros and Cons
This review is from the point of view of a PC gamer. Games are my primary avenue of entertainment; I don't watch TV, though I do listen to music and watch the occasional DVD on my PC with these headphones. I previously owned a set of the Ear Force HPA2 5.1 headphones. An unfortunate incident involving a gaming chair collapse, a cup of coffee and an intense game of Battlefield meant I had to replace them, the chair and my pants. This is not a review about my pants.Click here to read the rest of this Item.

Circumventing Network Filters Or Internet Censorship Using Simple Methods, VPNs, And Proxies
Internet censorship is the control of, or the suppression of information on the Internet.
It is most commonly achieved by blocking a user’s access to specific resources. The filtering of available information and resources can be based on a blacklist or it can be dynamic. In the case of a blacklist, that list is usually not published and may be produced manually or automatically.
Due to the underlying distributed technology that the internet is comprised of the total censorship of information is very difficult if not impossible to achieve. The following article shows many ways, simple and complex, that information may be accessed or transfered using the internet’s distributed nature to bypass information filtering and censorship. In the long run censoring of information only harms the people who it is designed to protect. Many would argue that the censorship is not about protection but control and the enforcement of religious, economic or politically based ideals.
