Let’s talk about… What is Custom ROM in cellular phones Before we head down, you can learn about the custom ROM; well, with the word of XDA, Custom ROMs are one of the best things about Android. By installing custom ROM, you get the benefits such as an improved battery, better performance, easy root access, customization, themes (not all supported), and many more.

UI OF YOUR CHOICE: For example, you are a redmi user and you are fed up with the UI, then you could get a makeover with Pixel Experience ROMs that has the sam

Top 20 false beliefs users hold about IT professionals (Michael Medina)

Top 20 false beliefs users hold about IT professionals Author: Michael Medina 1. Users expect IT professionals to drop everything and fix an issue immediately, regardless of how important the request is. Your relatively insignificant issue probably isn't the most important thing IT needs to focus on right now. Often they're working on higher-priority problems. 2. Users expect IT professionals to know everything about technology, as if they have infinite knowledge. IT pros are great at problem-solving, but getting to the bottom of an issue is a process that involves research; trial and error to rule out potential causes; and often, good old-fashioned Googling. 3. Users expect IT pros to fix personal computers free of charge. IT professionals get paid to do work in the office, but what they do after hours is their own business. It's weird to ask them to do work for free. You wouldn't expect a mechanic to fix your car for free, or an accountant to do your taxes for you. 4.

Install Hard Drives by Side, Upside-Down, Regular and Vertical Position

Install Hard Drives by Side, Upside-Down, Regular and Vertical Position Does mounting a hard disk drive on its side or even upside-down affects its lifespan or reliability? According to every drive manufacturer, it’s perfectly acceptable to mount a hard disk drive in any orientation as long as it’s not tilted and has sufficient cooling. Each drive manufacturer says on the subject of drive mounting: Seagate: “All Seagate and Maxtor-brand hard drives can be fitted sideways or upside down. As long as they are not moved during use and get enough cooling, it is irrelevant in which direction they are mounted.” Western Digital: “The drive can be mounted sideways, on end, or even upside down as long as the mounting screws are used properly.” HGST: “Hitachi Deskstar drive can be mounted with any side or end vertical or horizontal. Do not mount the drive in a tilted position.” So it’s perfectly fine to mount a hard disk drive upside down, vertical, or on either

Difference Between RAID & LVM

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RAID AND LVM RAID 1.     RAID is used for redundancy. 2.     A RAID device is a physical grouping of disk devices in order to create a logical presentation of one device to an Operating System for redundancy or performance or a combination of the two. 3.     RAID is a way to create a redundant or striped block device with redundancy using other physical block devices. 4.     RAID is either a software or a hardware technique to create data storage redundancy across multiple block devices based on required RAID levels. 5.     RAID is NOT any kind of Data backup solution. Its a solution to prevent one of the SPOFs (Single Point of Failure) i.e. DISK failure. By configuring RAID you are just providing an emergency substitute for the Primary disk. It NEVER means that you have configured DATA backup. LVM 1.     LVM is a way in which you partition the hard disk logically and it contains its own advantages. 2.     LVM is a logical layer that that can

Let's Talk about... - DisplayPort vs HDMI vs DVI vs VGA

DisplayPort vs HDMI vs DVI vs VGA HDMI HDMI, or High Definition Media Interface, is the standard for HDTVs and is on most computer monitors. It’s easy to use because it carries audio too. If you’re going to plug your PC into a TV HDMI is the way to go. HDMI is fine for most resolutions. If your display or TV has HDMI 1.4, you’ll be limited to 3,820×2160, 4K, at 30 Hz. However if you’ve got a video card and 4K display with HDMI 2.0, you’ll be able to get 4K at 60 Hz. HDMI was designed to be backwards compatible with DVI, so there is no loss of video quality when using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable. It’s important to note that while you shouldn’t go spending big bucks on HDMI cables since most are the same, different cables have different speed ratings. You’ll need a high speed (category 2) cable for resolutions above 1080i. Fortunately for most people, high speed cables created for HDMI 1.4 will meet the specifications of HDMI 2.0. Some cables have support for HDMI with Ethern

20 DIFFERENT USES FOR A RASPBERRY PI

20 DIFFERENT USES FOR A RASPBERRY PI 1.     DESKTOP PC Let’s start with the simplest use for a Raspberry Pi: a desktop computer. This makes sense in several ways, not least because this project ensures you have almost all of the equipment you’ll need for your Raspberry Pi. Along with the Pi itself, the microSD card, and power supply, you’ll need a HDMI cable and a suitable display. As with a traditional computer, you’ll also need a USB keyboard and mouse. The Raspberry Pi 3 has built in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, but if you’re using a different model, you’ll need compatible USB dongles (you can check compatibility at elinux.org’s Raspberry Pi Hub). If you prefer to use Ethernet, however, the Pi is equipped with an Ethernet port. Once you’re set up, and have your preferred operating system installed (unless specified, all of these projects require the latest version of Raspbian), you’ll find all of the tools you need to run your Raspberry Pi like a desktop computer.
