Micro SD cards have finally reached 1TB

NEWS – Yep, you read that title correctly:  You can buy a micro SD card that’s 1 TB in size.  SanDisk recently revealed that you can buy the first ever 1 TB card directly from their online store or from Amazon.  As of today, it’s out of stock in both locations, but when it’s available, it will set you back a cool $450.  Read speeds are up to 160 MB/s and write 90 MB/s, assuming you have a gadget capable of reaching such impressive speeds.  Who would need (and being willing to pay) for such a card?  Drone operators come to mind as someone who might want to capture video for as long as possible before having to land and switch cards, or maybe an athlete with a GoPro catching a long ride.  In fact, anyone using a device in harsh conditions may want to check this out, as SanDisk says this Extreme card is “temperature proof, waterproof, shock proof, and x-ray proof.”  If you can think of any other great applications for such a large card, or if you can find a store where it’s in stock, let us know in the comments below.

Google Reinstates Huawei with Android Q Service

It’s tough when politics get involved with business decisions. Nevertheless, sometimes countries or otherwise political entitles do so to play a little hardball and business gets caught up in it. That’s what happened to Huawei and Google recently when political trouble between China and the United States forced Google to revoke Huawei’s Android license. But we barely even got this news published before it was learned that Huawei was given a 90-day reprieve. Most assuredly, this gave them, as well as their customers, many reasons to breathe a sigh of relief. Huawei announced in an emailed statement on Friday, May 31, that they have been… Read more

How to Split Install.wim File Greater than 4GB

Most modern systems are coming with UEFI as the default firmware. This is a good thing. However, there is a little problem. To install Windows 10 on a UEFI system, you need to create a bootable drive with the FAT32 file system. The FAT32 file system can only store files that are less than 4GB. This may not be a problem for regular users. As of writing this, the Windows 10 default “install.wim” file is just barely under 4GB. However, if you are creating a custom image file with custom software and settings, that “install.wim” file can be massive. In those situations you can split… Read more
