Tech Reviews for Friday, April 13, 2012 – Superstitious or Not

It’s a sunny Friday here in Niagara Canada and the bikers will soon be embarking on Port Dover.

Do you have any rituals for Friday the 13th?

Is it a good day or a bad?

Do you have any other superstitions?

I personally like this day and now that the sun is shining will jump on my motorcycle and head to the office.

HIGHLIGHT REVIEW

One of the manufacturers which has impressed us most in recent times with their SSDs is Crucial. Both the C300 and the m4, based on Marvell controllers, have offered class leading performance and competitive pricing with some great after sales support, including an active user forum.
