APH Networks: XPG Mars 980 Blade 2TB Review
Recently, I was in a conversation with a few guys discussing our cell phone service providers. "I am on Rogers," one of the guys said. "I mean, I am actually on Freedom, but that is the same thing." If you are unfamiliar with the Canadian wireless market, Freedom is definitely not Rogers. Freedom started off as Wind Mobile in 2009, an independent budget carrier to compete against Rogers, Bell, and Telus, the "big three" providers. In 2016, Shaw, a cable company in Western Canada looking to expand into the wireless market, purchased Wind Mobile and changed its name to Freedom. Rogers bought Shaw in 2021, and in order to get regulatory approval, sold Freedom to Videotron and maintains a separate network. Without starting pointless arguments, I told the guy making the Freedom-Rogers claim to just look it up on Wikipedia, which he refused and insisted they are the same thing because he "looked up their coverage maps and they are identical". I sort of just laughed and told him to put some money on the table for a bet, and to nobody's surprise, once again refused my offer. (Just for fun facts, I used to work in the telecommunications industry.) Now, I do not know what coverage maps he was looking at, but even if the coverage was the same, it does not mean they are the same company. Even if the wireless specifications are identical, there can still be variances in performance. In a similar way, the XPG Mars 980 Blade 2TB we are reviewing today features Silicon Motion's latest SM2508 controller along with TLC ICs, which has very similar specifications as other flagship PCIe 5.0-based NVMe SSDs like the Crucial T710 2TB and Sandisk WD_BLACK SN8100 2TB. But will they all perform the same? We tested them against each other to find out.

Reolink has been expanding its lineup of smart security cameras, and the TrackMix series is one of its more interesting releases. What makes these cameras stand out is the way they combine pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) features with a wide-angle 4K lens and a 1080p telephoto lens.
