Sunshine caused your iPhone die

Apple said that the warning against the heat will appear on your phone screen when the iPhone in direct sunlight. Apple as a company that made the iPhone instead of providing solutions, but instead blamed the sun and the summer consumers even take the blame also.

Apple said that leaving the phone in the car on a hot day can cause the phone has a high heat. Apple also said, using a GPS device in the car on a hot day, or listening to music in the middle of the day is not recommended.

Apple provides a list of problems that could trigger overheating iPhones, which the iPhone will stop recharging the battery, phone screen brightness will be reduced, cell phone signals will be weakened and the warning temperature on the phone screen will appear with the message “iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it “. Apple said the iPhone is made only to be operated at temperatures between 0 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius and stored at temperatures between -20 degrees Celsius to 45 degrees Celsius.

Based on Apple’s statement, these companies do not seem to provide solutions for customers. Apple does not agree that the hardware on the iPhone need revision, and Apple would rather blame the summer, the sun and blaming usage. Then, if you are one iPhone user, getting your phone ready to die later in the summer

Deficiency of Solid State Drive (SSD)

Solid State Drive (SSD) is a data storage device that uses solid-state memory for data storage. SSDs use a similar interface so the hard disk drive can be operated on several different devices. typically sized SSD 2.5 “, using the SATA interface. there are also SSD using SRAM or DRAM commonly referred to as RAM-Drive.

SSD have advantages, but also has deficiency, Deficiency of Solid State Drive (SSD) among others:

1. The price is still expensive. Price per gigabyte was about US$1.50 to US$3.45. compared with conventional hard disk that cost only U.S. $ 0.38 per gigabyt.

2. Storage capacity is still far behind compared to conventional hard drives. Although there is currently capacity 1TB SSD, but still in experimental stages. while the hard disk konvensioanl  with 1TB capacity is really there in the market.

3. Write / erase cycles is limited to SSD. SSD can only survive for 1.000 to 10.000 times the maximum write cycle or write cycle time 100.000. compared with conventional hard disk that can hold 1 to 5 million times a write cycle. This effect on SSD performance itself, the longer the SSD is used then would come down perormance

4. Write speeds are slower than conventional hard disk. SSD is usually a block that is used is 0.5 – 1 Megabyte

5. SSD-based DRAM (not the Flash-based) requires a higher power to operate. SSD will continue to use your computer’s power even in a state of burning

Corrupt TIFF files in XP SP3

Microsoft confirmed that Windows XP SP3 has a few problems on Windows applications Picture Fax Viewer. This application will create images in TIFF format corrupt, if the image is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise to clockwise.

Microsoft explained that Windows Picture and Fax Viewer using the output TIFF file compression format CCITT (International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee) Group 3 encoding 1D. Therefore, when the user opens the file format TIFF with CCITT Group 3 encoding 2D, the image file will corrupt.

SSD Hard Drive – Large capacity, higher technology

At the present time more and more producers who dared release the SSD products, which it is followed by a large capacity SSD offered. certainly do not miss the technology brought by increasingly sophisticated.

At CEBIT 2009, the manufacturer OCZ demonstrated sized 1 TB SSD, which uses the PCI express x8 interface. Result, the minimum speed resulting read is 654 MB/s and maximunya is 712 MB/s. Astonishing results, compared with regular hard drives.

Still in the year 2009, Hewlett-Packard introduced the HP IO Accelerator storageWorks capacity 80GB, 160GB and 320GB with ioDrive technology where the resulting bandwidth can reach 800 MB / s and 100.000 IOPS. Texas Memory system to introduce flash storage units that have the greatest capacity today, called Ramsan-620, size 5 TB. This product has a throughput of 3 GB/s and obtained the results of read/write capable of reaching 250.000 I/O’s per second (IOPS). of course the technology used to transfer the data interface is different, it uses high-speed fiber channel or InfiniBand.

DDRdrive LLC company also introduced a SSD that uses the PCI express interface, called DDRdrive X1. Uniquely, it combines between DRAM and NAND with a total capacity is 4GB. This product is targeted to reach 300.000 IOPS capable and has a power efficiency of 30.000 IOPS/W.

Photofast manufacturers are also introducing products named G-Monster-PROMISE PCLe SSD with a capacity range from 12GB to 1TB. velocity is owned 1000MB/s for read/write speed.
