Hi everyone, Today, I want to show you the Fenvi Mini PCI Express to PCI Express Adapter. This is an adapter that turns those Mini PCI Express Wi-Fi/Bluetooth adapters commonly found on older laptops into a PCI Express adapter that can be used on Desktop computers.

Comments 0 Comment

Hi everyone, I’m probably one of the few who have had swollen battery issues. This time, the most recent battery issue came with the CHUWI UBook tablet that I’ve had for a few years now. Somehow, even with the device powered off, the battery decided to swell really bad that it bent the tablet itself. Fortunately, even with the tablet bended, the screen itself seems to not have been cracked. However, the battery is severely swollen. I was able to…

Hi everyone, Today, we will be seeing a replacement fan from Rangale for the Lenovo Y510p laptop. This is my 3nd replacement fan as 2 has already failed previously: The last replacement fan actually lasted a whole year, which at least was something. I’m not sure how long the new one will last, but we’ll see since it’s a different brand than the last 2. This fan also comes in a nice branded box, unlike the generic past one. The…

Comments 2 comments

Hi everyone, I’ve recently upgraded my Lenovo Y720 RAM to 64GB. This laptop came with 16GB initially, but it’s very easy to upgrade it.

Upgrading it was as easy as removing the back cover: We can see the 2x 8GB RAM modules installed in the laptop here: And here they are removed: The part…

Hi everyone, Today, I got a package with Up Tape in it: I’ve been expecting to receive my UP AI Plus that I backed on Kickstarter last year.

It initially should have been delivered on Thursday. I’ll be opening the box and seeing if this is definitely the UP…

Hi everyone, Today, I spent some time in the morning doing some cable management to the area where I have my mining tablets: Those tablets are contributing to distributed computing projects that runs using the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing software, which is also available for Android devices, so my Android tablets are currently contributing to the yoyo@home project and to World Community Grid if there’s no yoyo tasks available for them. You can see I made use of…
