Lexar NM600 M.2 2280 NVMe 480GB Solid-State Drive (LNM600-480RBNA) by Lexar



Capacity: 480GB
Coming from the days of 8”floppy drives it is hard to recognize how much storage can be on one of these M.2 drives.  Even calling it a drive seems absurd.  Not that long ago, I would have assumed (incorrectly) that it was RAM.  The solid state aspect means it is fast.   That it is running in a 3.0 USB enclosure means for USB it is very fast.  It works well, I had to tell Disk Management what it was and after that I moved a large file over to it that went over pretty much as I typed the name.   Impressive technology.
From the vendor:
High-speed PCIe Gen3x4 interface: 2100MB/s read and 1600MB/s write - NVMe 1. 3 supported
Get 3. 5x the speed of a SATA-based SSD
Features SSD dash software management
Shock and vibration resistant with no moving parts
Three-year limited

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
