No one likes bad Wi-Fi connections. In fact, the only thing I hate more than slow Wi-Fi is spending money on networking gear. I get it — there are a million things you'd rather spend your money on before Prime Day runs out than a new router. But if you're tired of buffering, connectivity issues, and slow speeds, that's exactly what you should buy.
The journey toward an actual release date for Grand Theft Auto VI has been arduous, to say the least. After 13 long years, pre-orders are finally live for the massive open-world game for PS5 and Xbox Series X players. After placing your order for the game, why not make some extra preparations to make the experience that much more special?
Regular NAS servers use mechanical HDDs, but if you want to make the switch to flash storage, there are a few decent choices available. The benefit of using an all-flash NAS is that you get significantly higher bandwidth; most traditional HDDs can hit 250MB/s at a maximum, but with an SSD, you easily get ten times that bandwidth.
Google's new speaker is a modest update, but the question is whether Gemini is a good smart home assistant.
It's no secret that SSDs and other storage devices are absurdly expensive right now, and it doesn't seem like that's changing any time soon. Fortunately, Prime Day is here, and while the situation isn't quite as good as it was a year ago, Amazon's sale is your best opportunity to find a reasonable storage deal that won't break the bank.
If you're looking to buy a new NAS, there's a good chance that you came across UGREEN. The brand is a relative newcomer, but a combination of great hardware and aggressive discounts made it swiftly rise up the ranks in this category.
After three years of trying (and failing) to build any semblance of a schedule, we wanted to get a smart calendar to see if it made things any easier. And with our toddler set to start pre-school soon, we needed a way to plan the family schedule, add and change meal plans, have a shared to-do list, and just bring some level of organization to the daily routine.
I get that ditching cable is hard, but there are viable alternatives if you're looking to build your own media library and break the cycle of incessant price hikes. Plex is a media platform that stands out as the best option in this category; it's easy to set up and use, and it has a growing library of content. The best way to install and manage Plex is on a NAS server, and there are models that excel at this use case.
Digital clutter is a real problem, and consolidating all of your digital media — including valuable photos, videos, and documents — in one location can be a hassle. Maybe you've got photos and videos in Google Photos, documents in Drive, and saved older media in a few external drives.
This year's Prime Day finally went live on June 23rd, but Amazon isn't the only retailer dropping great deals this week. Walmart just kicked off its rival "Walmart Deals" sale event, slashing prices on everything from headphones and smartphones to top-selling VR headsets. Sure, it may not be the most cleverly-named sale event around, but if you want to skip Amazon's big sale this year, the Walmart Deals event has you covered.
