Και μετά λέμε ότι είναι overpriced τα apple... κοίτα που άλλοι πουλάνε τιμές apple τα κινέζικα ΟΕΜ των 15€...

"despite historically being some of our most reliable parts, we have received a surprising number of reports of failing Samsung drives, specifically with the 2TB version of the 980 Pro."

It goes on to say that, working with Samsung itself, it has been confirmed that the firmware the 980 Pro SSDs were shipping with were responsible for these failures and that they need to be updated as soon as possible.

An error in Samsung's 980 Pro firmware is causing SSDs to die. I'd check your drive right now tbh

Update or say goodbye to your Samsung SSD. If only that was the only issue affecting its drives today, but...

Δεν γίνεται να κάνετε pin αυτό το thread και το άλλο για τα software news;
Βαριόμαστε να τα ψάχνουμε.

Πρωτη γουλια καφε, play... γκρινια γκρινια γκρινια γκρινια. Απο ποια σπηλια βγηκαν αυτοι οι δυο;

Μάλλον βγήκαν απο την σπηλιά που βγαίνουν και οι απλήρωτοι συνεργάτες της ΕΚ, μαζί με τους απλήρωτους εργαζομένους, προμηθευτές κτλ.
Μια εταιρία σαν την ΕΚ δεν δικαιολογείται να έχει τέτοια συμπεριφορά. Ακόμη και αν περνάει μια κρίση ρευστότητας που μάλλον θα ξεπεράσει, θα της μείνει η ρετσινιά της αναξιόπιστης εταιρίας για πάντα.

LPCAMM2 Is Finally Here, and It’s a Big Deal | iFixit News

LPCAMM2 promises to be the thin, fast, efficient, and REPAIRABLE laptop memory standard of the future. Today, we take apart the first laptop to actually use it.

LPDDR chips on a compact board that screws in place very close to a laptop’s CPU. Combining the efficiency and speed of LPDDR with a thin, lightweight, upgradeable design and a trick interface that gets everything up close and personal with the CPU, LPCAMM2 seemingly does it all.

And with dual-channel performance already baked in, a single LPCAMM2 module can do the job of a pair of the old socketed SO-DIMM sticks with a much smaller footprint and better thermals to boot.

LPCAMM2 exemplifies our ability to advance technologically while designing with sustainability in mind. It represents a significant step forward in the fight against planned obsolescence. By fighting for a modular, upgradeable memory solution for chips previously stuck in a soldered hellscape, manufacturers are demonstrating their commitment to creating devices that stand the test of time.

There’s so much to gain here: from increasing device lifespan at schools and businesses, to reducing anxiety for consumers at the point of purchase, to enabling hassle-free repairs for devices that would otherwise be scrapped.

Πολύ ενδιαφέρον, μακάρι να αλλάξει γενικά η τάση για non-repairable συσκευές. Δεν θα με πείραζε καθόλου αν laptops, κινητά και άλλες συσκευές ήταν λίγο μεγαλύτερα σε μέγεθος αλλά μπορούσα να τα ανοίξω και επισκευάσω εύκολα μόνος μου.
