    Laptops Suggestions for a 16 inch Laptop under 2Kg.

    Thanks for the suggestions. So Ive finally decided to wait for Asus 2025 G16 with 5070 as well as wait for Samsung Galaxy Book 5 Pro (Core 2 Series) since both above models were launched last year. Both have remained consistent in their price, so thinking of spending it on the latest. If I find...

    Laptops Suggestions for a 16 inch Laptop under 2Kg.

    Hi everyone, I have a very unique set of requirements for the next laptop that I need to purchase. For some context I am currently using a 14 inch (250nits brightness)Dell Inspiron 7420 running a core i3 1215u with 16gb RAM which is running fine, except for some hinge issues. 1. Due to some...

    0-20k Need help with a (used?) budget low-power-usage build for a NAS.

    It has its shortcomings but it is the easiest way out. Ive had a 5TB attached to Asus AC86u for quite sometime as basically a media server and even 65 GB movie rips work perfectly fine on Samsung TVs connected through LAN/wifi. For data transfers USB 3 is the limiting factor in most cases...

    0-20k 27" 1440p high refresh rate monitor for gaming/media consumption for around 20k?

    Any suggestions for a monitor at around 30k. Currently using Samsung frame 65 inch 4K TV paired with 6800XT graphics card. Not sure if I’d be able to manage similar image quality at this price

    0-10K Need to buy 2 Samsung phones for office admins for less than 10k each (5G not mandatory)

    Just bought F15 5G at 12k. Lets see how it works out. Increased my budget slightly to accommodate that 4 years of OS upgrade & Amoled screen. Initially was on the fence to buy M14 5G at 10k which I feel is equally VFM.

    1000. You could try out the option I went ahead with a 4TB P3 at the same cost of a 2TB 990 Pro. Anyways as suggested above you’d be limited with 500 mb/s barrier on external cases even with a Gen 5 ssd. Pl correct me if I’m incorrect.

Pibox comes with a USB C to C & C to A cable but no thermal pads as mentioned. Transfer speeds that I...

    That slot is covered by the graphics card. 6800XT to be exact so cannot go that way but thanks for the suggestion. Have not compared them head to head but since Samsung was the first buy it became the OS drive followed by WD as secondary. I basically chose whichever was cheaper at the time...

    Actually my MB supports only 2 NVME slots. Need to remove 1TB WD 570 so was planning to use it in an external enclosure. Samsung 980 1TB is my primary OS drive

    Thanks a lot for the quick reply. Any SSD enclosure that could be recommended. Looking at Pibox India NVME Enclosure @1k. Seems to have decent reviews.
