HUNSN Mini PC Firewall Appliances RJ09 and RJ14 are on Sale on Amazon

Comments 0 Comment

Hi everyone, Recently, I’ve been having my attention at the so called “Mini PC Firewall Appliances”, which are essentially mini computers with an Intel CPU and several LAN ports. I’ve been having a look at ones with 4 and 6 ports, but for my use case, the 6 port is the better option. For some weeks, I’ve mainly been looking at the HUNSN RJ09 and RJ14 models. The HUNSN RJ09 and RJ14 models are essentially the same, but the chasis…

Hi everyone, A couple of months ago, I wrote about the AmazonBasics 6-Outlet Power Strip disappearing from Amazon and having to go with an alternative power strip. I chose to order the GE 2-Pack 6-Outlet Power Strip which was similar to the original strip that I wanted to buy, and here it is: As we can see, the packaging is very, very simple and doesn’t come in a box like the AmazonBasics power strips did. This means it is less…

Yesterday, I ordered 2 USB 3.0 Hubs to use in a project I’m working. Today, I woke up with a notification of an undeliverable order, while the other one has a tracking code, yet it shows as not shipped but that would be delivered today: The only order I actually received is the 3 Vantec 12.7mm enclosures I ordered in the week. It’s interesting that when I click on the “Undeliverable” USB Hub, it says the order is being prepared:…

What happened to the AmazonBasics Standard 6-Outlet Power Strip?

That is the question I ask myself. I was going to order an extra 2 of those, but it seems they are no longer available. I originally ordered these power strips back in 2017. They have been working as they should and even the “Protected” light is still up. I even ordered one bundle last year! Now, clicking on the items from the order history brings a 404 page. It seems that these item listings have been removed: It’s a…

My 2nd Batch of Used BDXL discs

On the past days, I wrote about having purchased an used spindle of 10 Verbatim BDXL discs. I mentioned that I had also ordered the same item again, but the used condition mentioned was “Like New”. Today, we’ll see my experience this time, which may or may not surprise you. The first thing is I received this item on an “Amazon Renewed” bag. The sticker is different from the “Amazon Inspected” one from my previous order: Visually looking, we can…

Hi everyone, Yesterday afternoon, I received the “Used – Good” Verbatim BDXL discs that I purchased last week. Today, we’ll see exactly what these discs really mean and if they are really used. First, we see the item arrived on a bag. Visually inspecting it from the bag it seems the packaging itself looks good. Indeed, it all looks good, except it isn’t really wrapped like new items are, so the spindle was actually opened already. The spindle package looks…

On the past few days, I ordered several quantities of BDXL discs to backup my recorded videos from the past years. These projects have varying sizes and some goes up to 1TB. This means I need several of these BDXL discs to back them up. When looking at the BDXL media on Amazon, I noticed they can be purchased “Used” straight from the Amazon Warehouse seller. A spindle of 10 discs cost $41.88, while the Used condition was at $36.85….
