WD adds SD slot, Wi-Fi to external hard drive
Despite being incredibly useful, portable hard drives are rarely interesting. WD's new My Passport Wireless is different, though. It combines the usual 2.5" mechanical drive and USB 3.0 interface with an SD card slot and robust Wi-Fi connectivity. The SD slot enables photos and videos to be loaded onto the drive without the assistance of a PC. Meanwhile, the Wi-Fi fuels media streaming, remote management, and other goodies.

AMD's FX-8370E processor reviewed
In many ways, AMD's FX processor series seems to have fallen by the wayside lately. While A-series APUs were refreshed with new Kaveri silicon this past January, the FX family has been trucking along with the same Vishera silicon since 2012. The accompanying 990FX chipset is a year older and begging for a replacement.

AMD's Radeon R9 285 graphics card reviewed
As a guy who reviews video cards, it's pretty easy to become cynical about these things. That's been especially true during the past couple of years, as we've seen the same handful of graphics chips spun into multiple "generations" of products. The core GPU technology is a technological wonder, but the endless re-spins get to be tiresome.
When AMD revealed the imminent arrival of the Radeon R9 285 recently, I have to admit, I wasn't exactly thrilled. Yes, the R9 285 would be ...
