Lamptron HM101 review

Lamptron is trying to find its new niche. They’re a company known mainly for their fan controllers – something that’s seldom used anymore, because most motherboards have fan headers now, and there are hardly any cases with 5.25”drive bays. This time, we’re checking out their LCD screen for monitoring PC h/w data, the HM101. It’s this manufacturer’s subsequent attempt at market innovation, following in the footsteps of the Lamptron SM436 PCI Fan and LED controller.

Hey, volume over frequency configured at CL18-25-25-45.

Lexar refreshed its NVMe lineup with the NM610 series M2 Solid State Drives. A value SSD proposition on the 8cm M2 form factor. The Lexar NM610 can read up to 2100 MB/s and write up to 1600MB/s. It does so with a trick though, as it uses a small slice of your RAM memory as buffer.
