    PC Peripherals Do USB 3.0 flash/thumb drives have decent write speeds on USB 2 bus?

    Just an OOT suggestion from my experience - When I tested on crystaldiskmark, my samsung duo gave me consistent 60mbps write and 400mbps read. Fraudulent samsung markets it as 400mbps pendrive, whereas 400mbps was for read only. Only benefits with this pendrive are its dual connectivity (usb a...

    PC Peripherals Do USB 3.0 flash/thumb drives have decent write speeds on USB 2 bus?

    Also, I have a crap SanDisk usb 3.0 pendrive. It always performs worse on usb 2.0 when compared to usb 3.0. If it gives 35 Mbps on usb 3.0, it will give only 20Mbps on usb 2.0. Would be great if someone knows the reason for this!

    PC Peripherals Do USB 3.0 flash/thumb drives have decent write speeds on USB 2 bus?

    I am getting 60mbps write using samsung duo plus 128 gb on usb 3.1 port. This is one of the better pen drives in the market. This goes down to 20-30 when using usb 2.0. From what I've read, pen drives have comparatively crappy controllers and hence will almost never consistently hit the write...

    Will you give up on a childhood friend who literally stole your life's savings?

    Damn bro, this Bheegi Bheegi song was copied by this copycat music director called Pritam. The album was a huge hit and all the rage even in Kerala, It was such a hit that we performed this song at school. I still remember the entire song and lyrics now, after 15 years. We specifically performed...

    Will you give up on a childhood friend who literally stole your life's savings?

    Be a good friend, be there for him, as in try and talk to him and get him to accept professional help, if he has problems overcoming his addiction. If I abandoned my best friend when he needed me, I am sure, irrespective of financial gains, it'd effect my conscience for the rest of my life...

    Audio Setup for Living Room under 20k

    You get Bluetooth 5, optical out, sub option, better remote and 4watts upgrade. I would have gone with 1855db if I got new. Moreover, Doesn't optical port give much better audio experience? Again, I only went with 1700s because I was able to get a hardly used well maintained pair for a good...

    [DISCUSSION] Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition

    Well gta and rockstar as we know it, is finished, since Dan Houser has left. If you take away his awesome writing and vision, all them rockstar open world games are substandard, from a gameplay perspective that is.

    Audio Setup for Living Room under 20k

    I am extremely happy with the edifier 1700bt's. They give you good experience for movies as well as music. For movies, you get good bass and great dialogue clarity which I was unable to get with any other sub 12k soundbar/2.1/2.0 speakers. I tried panasonic 4.1's, samsung soundbar, mi...

    Pls suggest a XBOX console gives the maximum value for money ?

    No specific source but a compilation of my experience. See gears 5/ jedi fallen order analysis for example. Then there is fps boost which kills one x. Unfortunately I am not up to date with the latest happenings since I am actively trying to stay away from gaming, so I don't have links since I...

    Pls suggest a XBOX console gives the maximum value for money ?

    One x fan is normally very quiet, quiet fan was one of the reasons why one x was admired over pro. Problem with one X is 30fps. Even if it runs some games at 60, you will still see drops. This is where series consoles are a huge improvement and come closer to pc in terms of value imo.
