The new MacBook Air comes stocked with a flash memory drive instead of the familiar disk drive. But what's the big deal, and what kind of a difference does a flash drive make? Find out when you read more. Read more
It only takes one...maybe two...Carrie Bradshaw-like computer-crashing-at-the-worst-possible-moment conundrums to get serious about backing it up. Most of my data lives in the "clouds" — in Gmail, Flickr, and online storage — but there's something to be said for the easy external device setup. How do you back up your data?

Looks may be deceiving, but don't be fooled: I promise this is a sexier and sleeker version of the eGo drive I reviewed last year. This much lighter, third generation, 320GB drive offers built-in antivirus software and an impressive rugged aluminum exterior that can withstand a 1.3 meter drop, which you know as well as I do is very important when you're lugging around a device that holds your Read more
I can give you multiple reasons why I love this concept piece I found on Coroflot. Not only is this hanging hard drive packed with virus-scanning software to help you track down any bugs that may have attacked your computer, but it can also recover any corrupted files, so it's actually a useful piece of equipment. Plus, it's kinda cute in a totally out-of-left-field kind of way, and it flashes Read more

Yes, he was suggesting I literally put my hard drive into the freezer, next to the frozen bananas and emergency vodka, in hopes that it would come back to life.
