Comic-Con International: Short film pilots coming to Xbox LIVE

Film pilots coming to Xbox LIVE
Horror and comedy often come together on the show floor at Comic-Con International, just never like this. Microsoft Corp. today announced that a set of original short film pilots will be coming to Xbox LIVE this fall, free to all members around the world.

The unique concept of masters of horror taking on comedy, conceived by filmmaker James Gunn (“Slither,” “Dawn of the Dead”) and producer Peter Safran (“Scary Movie,” “Meet the Spartans,” “Disaster Movie”), will see some of the world’s greatest horror directors bring their comedic visions to life. Microsoft is teaming up with Safran Digital Group to produce these exclusive shorts Read more

Hands-on with the Thermaltake BlacX SE SATA to USB Dock

June 6, 2008  
Filed under Gadgets, USB Gadgets


This is the Thermaltake BlacX SE SATA to USB Dock and some people may be wondering if it brings anything else worthwhile compared to the standard BlacX version. The Thermaltake BlacX SE gives us everything that the Blacx does, and it surpasses it in the features department. With the price between the two being less than three Dollars, go for the SE. If you need full SATA transfer speeds then take the time to look for the USB + eSATA version; they should start appearing on shelves next week.

Tweak Town have given this product a hands-on over 7 pages and in their final thoughts they said, “The Thermaltake BlacX SE is everything we expected it to be, and everything Thermaltake claims it to be for that matter. As was the case with the BlacX we looked at last week, the BlacX SE is not able to transfer data as fast as native SATA, so your drives are not going to see full performance as they would when mounted inside of your PC. Hopefully Thermaltake gives us a BlacX SE eSATA version just like the BlacX does.

Currently the BlacX SE can be found for just a couple of Dollars more than the BlacX; just a hair above 40 US Dollars, even though the MSRP is close to 15 Dollars more at the MSRP level. When choosing between the BlacX (USB only version) and the BlacX SE, I would opt for the SE since it adds a little more value to the product.

The construction of both units is similar and the quality is high. The BlacX did have a small problem with light scratching on the door cover, and that is eliminated on the SE since there is not a door that covers the slots. As someone who has dropped or knocked over more than a couple of hard drives in my day (two WD Raptor 150GBs last year alone), I like the security door on the SE. If you do not like the look of the SE with the door installed, it is easily removed.”
