Corsair Force Series 120GB SandForce SF-1200 SSD Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the Corsair Force Series 120GB SandForce SF-1200 SSD

Corsair has upped the ante with their Force Series drives by cutting drive provisioning, allowing 20% more capacity to be used. This helps the price per usable GB but will this hurt performance? Read on to see how the Corsair Force 120GB SSD does compared to the original Corsair Force 100GB SSD! The results might just surprise you!

As far as performance is concerned, we observed almost exactly what we saw with the Force 100GB drive, as we expected. We found both of these drives to be among the best performing MLC SATA II drives available which is typical of the all Sandforce based drives we have seen from nearly all manufacturers. The prices for SSD's haven't come down much as of late with the economy doing the yo-yo and NAND being consumed voraciously by iPads and smartphones. With Corsair freeing up more available capacity without having to add more onboard NAND really helps add to the value of the drive without increasing production costs, so the consumer wins. While the Force 120GB drive is listed online at Amazon for $350, it looks like they don't have it in stock yet which means the price is almost assuredly going to come down once it is more widely available - unless there are supply issues...

ARCTIC C1 Mobile Solar Charger Review
iGadget Life posted a review on the ARCTIC C1 Mobile Solar Charger

Today for review I’ve got the Arctic C1 Mobile Solar Charger from Arctic Cooling. It’s a tiny, but powerful portable solar charger that’s inexpensive and really works well. The Arctic C1 Mobile comes with a few tips for mobile phones, but it has a standard USB port on it so it can charge virtually anything that can be charged over USB as long as you have the cable. So with this device you can charge your phone, your mp3 Player or virtually anything really that can be charged via USB. The battery inside is a 4400mWh lithium-ion so it will provide power to charge several devices or one device a few times.

CoolIT ECO A.L.C. Review
XSReviews posted a review of the CoolIT ECO A.L.C. watercooling kit

Over the past few years we have reviewed many processor cooling units. Most of them were heatsink fans (HSF) and some plain passive aluminium blocks, but some were all in one water cooling systems that are designed to do everything you want in a neat package.

Lately JoeB reviewed the CoolIT Domino ALC Watercooling Kit which scored a tremendous nine out of ten on our awards scale. CoolIT has to date produced many interesting all-in-one OEM, business and consumer products, ranging from single and dual CPU cooling up to custom and all-in-one GPU chiller setups. Today we have another CoolIT product though, the Coolit ECO A.L.C. all-in-one watercooler, ready for all modern sockets.

Arctic Cooling Arctic Sound S111 Speakers Review
Bona Fide Reviews posted a review on the Arctic Cooling Arctic Sound S111 Speakers

Today I have what I believe is the first review for the product that I have, and that product is the new Arctic Sound S111 USB speakers from Arctic Cooling or Arctic as they are just known now. These speakers are meant to be an accompaniment to a laptop or netbook, or even as desktop speakers and can possibly be used with an MP3 player as well to help take your music on the go. They’re small and portable, but they are well made and honestly they sound very good.

Cirago BTA3210 USB Bluetooth Adapter Review
DragonSteelMods posted a review on the Cirago BTA3210 USB Bluetooth Adapter

Today I'll be taking a quick look at the BTA-3210 Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter from Cirago. It is a very simple dongle that can give Bluetooth capability to laptops or computers without built-in Bluetooth functions. There isn't a heck of a lot one can say about a device this straightforward, but let's take a look at how well it functions and what it looks like.
