Intel Core i7-2630QM CPU Computer Processor Review

The latest technology advancement, the Intel Core i7-2630QM quad-core coming from high-class core i-Series laptops and PCs is clocked at 2.0 GHz and based on the Sandy Bridge architecture technology. It also offers Hyperthreading to handle 8 threads at once and manufactured in 32nm technology and offers an integrated graphics controller and AES functions.

Moreover, this Core i7-2630QM CPU laptop processor supports TurboBoost Technology thus it is able to reach up to 2.9 GHz when 1 core is active, 2.8GHz when 2 cores are active and 2.6GHz when 3 or 4 cores are active.

Additionally, the Intel Core i7-2630QM computer technology presents an integrated graphics controller known as Intel HD Graphics 3000 which is faster than the older Intel HD Graphics. The new Intel HD Graphics 3000 is now integrated in the CPU and also manufactured in 32nm and shares the fast level 3 cache with the CPU cores.

Furthermore, the Intel Core i7-2630QM features SSE4, AES, AVX, HT, VT, TBT technologies. Thus, it can perform even with demanding applications and games and should be able to run without problems.

Which Laptop do you prefer Convertibles or Detachables ?

There have been plenty of ultraportable laptop that are being released that includes what we call "convertible hybrids," or 2-in-1s. Some laptop 2-in-1s rotate around the hinge, while the others have a separate keyboard base that detaches from the screen. In the former case, these mash-up machines let you enjoy both laptop and tablet functionality, thanks to hinges and swiveling joints that let you bend the display back around to use without a keyboard.

These convertible laptop systems don't come apart the way the latter detachable kind do. More and more manufacturers are adopting the rotating non-detachable design.

Rotating-hinge convertible devices are laptops first, but they aren't limited to traditional clamshell designs. Because they feature specialized hinges and touch screens, you can also prop them up like a tent, or turn the keyboard facedown so the screen is better positioned for watching a movie or giving a presentation.

While laptop convertibles are a category in their own right, the ability to shape-shift naturally lends itself to making a good travel laptop, so you'll see that some of our highest-rated ultraportable laptops are convertibles, too.

Will Cloud Storage Replace Tape Drives in the Near Future?

Let’s say you have to run a backup of your environment, and figure this is for smaller business or enterprises or home photography enthusiasts whose file systems measure in the Terabytes instead of the Gigabytes.  Let’s say you want to back up 5TB worth of data and you want it done in a few hours, what do you think the feasibility is of using a cloud backup service for this?

Cloud Storage Not Replacing Tape Drives Anytime Soon

Even if you wanted to use a cloud backup for this service you could be paying well over five figures per year to keep 5TB of data archived in the cloud.  It is for this reason that Tape Backups are still a standard and leveraged for those who need vast archival flexibility and store vast amounts of data.

After all, a tape autoloader can backup up to 5TB of data per hour when dealing with compressed data and can store a dozen tapes cycling through them as needed.  The old days of manually labeling tapes isn’t needed anymore as tapes can be barcoded and auto scanned so you know what data is on what tapes.  Now most tape solutions are not going to be for your average home, but server shops where you need a robust local backup solution instead.  Not all tape solutions require a datacenter or enterprise rack either, there are some fairly robust USB 3 tape backup solutions where each cartridge can hold 1TB of data as well.

Tape backups are cheaper than having hard disk drives as a storage medium and have the convenience of popping them out and archiving them easier for storage than with physical disks.  While online cloud backup may eventually overtake any other backup medium in the future, it is still the cloud backup providers that rely on tape to archive all of that information in the case retrieval is needed years later for audit or any other purposes.
How Much Data is Created Every Minute

Cloud Storage Not Replacing Tape Drives Anytime Soon

Every day over 2.5 Quintillion Bytes of Data is generated and most of it lies on tape backups for archival purposes especially in sectors which require holding years of data records.  While tape backups do nothing to solve the big data problem of needing to access all of that data immediately and this is one key advantage of having data in a cloud which can still be potentially accessed and indexed behind a CDN, you have the stability of offline backups that are semi permanent.

Intel Core i7-3520M Technology Reviews

The latest Intel Core i7-3520M supports Ivy Bridge technology, Hyper-Threading capability, Turbo Boost on CPU, and HD Graphics 4000 for smooth display experience. This powerful dual-core processor being one of the Ivy Bridge processors is fabricated using 22 nanometer technology, which makes it more power efficient, compared to the previous family, the Sandy Bridge processors.

Moreover, this Ivy Bridge Intel Core i7-3520M dual-core processor boasts with Hyper-Threading technology which gives an enhancement with the processing power of this processor to about 30%. Further to that, it also features Turbo Boost technology which makes the processing speed faster when thermal and electrical aspects are met. It also offers Level 1 cache of 128kB; 512kB of level 2 cache; and 3MB of Level 3 cache.

Also, this powerful Intel Core i7-3520M dual-core processor is intended for mobile PCs and packed with on-chip peripherals such as Direct Media Interface; PCI Express 3.0 interface; Dual-channel DDR3 memory controller; and HD 4000 graphics controller. The Core i7-3520M dual-core processor runs at the base clock speed of about 2.9GHz ( 2900 KHz ) but due to Turbo Boost technology it will automatically overclock to about 3.4 GHz when two of the cores are enabled, and 3.6 GHz when only 1 of the cores is active.

Furthermore, it has a powerful integrated graphics controller called Intel HD Graphics 4000 which has the ability of rendering High Definition movies with ease. This integrated GPU comes with 16 Execution Units (EUs) which has a speed ranging from 650 MHz up to 1.25GHz ( 1250 MHz ) due to Turbo Boost which makes it one of the speedy variations.
