On this page we test the performance of the 500 GB 5,400 RPM hard drive.

The combination of an mSATA SSD cache drive and 5400 RPM hard drive helps with the 4K QD32 tests, although sequential read and write results with incompressible data are slightly underwhelming.

The mSATA SSD really shows its effectiveness in ATTO Disk with up to 316 MB/s read performance and 87 MB/s write performance.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

  1. My brother has this for work, he works as a manager of a mobile phone retail store. Its very useful for a lot of tasks. But it is quite a bit of effort to carry around. Good screen size though for presentations etc.
