For the past few years, I’ve run out of storage space on my PC for all my pornography media files.  It’s a total bummer, considering the rest of my processes have to suffer due to a lack of porn-holding storage space.  The good news is that Data Robotics has launched the second-generation model of its award-winning Drobo enclosure. FireWire 800 alongside improved USB 2.0 performance and an upgraded core processor make the next-generation Drobo more efficient at managing and storing digital information than a 150GB hard drive chock full of porn.

Regular hard drives just don’t cut it anymore. They aren’t expandable and most don’t have anywhere near 16 TB of data storage. For those who find themselves managing vast amounts of porn data and can’t afford to sacrifice performance, the Drobo is an ideal way to solve your masturbation data problem.

This might be a somewhat unorthodox DIY since you’re not really “making” anything, but it’s as equally useful as other tutorials. Digital camcorders aren’t exactly user-friendly compatible, if you’ve been wanting to transfer old camcorder video to your computer to throw on YouTube you might have a difficult time.

This step-by-step tutorial, complete with idiot friendly image instructions, will show you how to transfer those old videos over to your PC with minimal brain power needed. If you don’t know some of those big tech words such as FireWire and NTSC video format, don’t sweat it. — Andrew Dobrow

The recently announced for pre-orders LaCie Huby can remake your desktop and serve an actual purpose at the same time. It’s design is obviously unique, as are all of the objects designed by Ora-Ã?to (whose resume includes the spherical OGO water bottle). This stylistic hydra of a hub allows for 4 USB 2.0 ports, 2 Firewire 400 pots, a fan, and an LED light. Being the first hub offered by LaCie, this PC & Mac compatible peripheral is an impressive product multiple of many functions. Included in the package are 8 flexible cables, 8 colorful LEDs (white, violet, green, red, yellow, orange, blue and pink), the USB fan, a USB extension cable and a FireWire 400 extension cable. If you have a little room on your desk to spare, why not fill it with this? The LaCie Huby is currently listed at $79.99 on the LaCie store site and since it’s shipping late this month, it also makes the perfect mid-priced gift for anyone in the family. — Nik Gomez
