Thanks for following my recent post regarding internet service provider, to be precised ISP in Malaysia, … my broadband is showing quite slow speed after i have exceed my limit which is 3 gb and i have used about 5.9 gb right now, the signal strength is still good but the speed is really slow, i think my internet is already been capped by Maxis.. well it’s okay because it is stated in TOC that they have right to slow down my speed if you more than my package limit…

This upcoming tuesday i am upgrading my plan from 3 gb -> 6 gb plan; they will refresh by usage back to zero and off course my bill will increase from 88 -> 118 per month…

well it is okay for me as long the speed is fast so that i can surf better..

well stay tune guys for the next report

p/s: no speedtest image cause the internet is so slow even visiting speedtest frontpage take a long time lol

As in 2007, Google inspecting the data on about 100,000 harddisk from it’s data center. Surprisingly harddisk that operate at the temperature of 40 degree Celcius live longer rather that harddisks that are above 45 celcius or below 30 celcius.

The Smallest Harddisk

In january 2004, Toshiba introduced a 0.85 inch hard disk with a capacity of 4 gb. It is recarded in Guinness Book of World Record

Drastic Fall in Price

As for today, a 1GB harddisk is about 0.10 USD but in 1980, ST506 ( Seagate ) cost about 250 euros per MB
