Daily Tech News 18 July 2024

Top Story


Tech News

  • A tiny flaw in Cisco's Smart Software Manager allows anyone to alter any user's password. (Ars Technica)

    And by anyone I mean anyone - you don't need to be logged in.

    And by any user I mean any user - without logging in you can change the admin password, and then log in.

    I don't think the rate of data breaches is going to slow down any time soon.


  • More 9950X benchmarks at various power levels. (WCCFTech)

    We already know there's no point running it at 320W, since it offers performance barely better than the default boost power of 230W.

    This chart shows that you also don't want to run it at 40W. Below 60W the performance craters. You can probably improve on that by adjusting the clock details, but with the automated settings the sixteen core 9950X runs like a six core 5600X.


  • Checking out the Crucial P310 - a 2TB M.2 2230 SSD. (Serve the Home)

    These drives are the size of a postage stamp, and fit in portable devices like the Steam Deck and ultra-slim laptops like Microsoft's Surface line.

    This one is QLC and DRAMless, a combination I would generally recommend avoiding, but on these benchmarks it holds up very well. Read speeds up to 7GB per second, and write speeds up to 6GB.

    Under sustained heavy write loads it will slow down, but in all other cases it actually looks good.


  • You can now run Windows NT on a PowerMac. (The Register)

    I have a couple of PowerMacs in the garage. I'm not really inclined to try this out though.


  • Looking to build a mini-ITX storage server? This motherboard from (random AliExpress vendors) might be what you need. (Liliputing)

    For $130 it has a four-coure Intel N100, two M.2 slots, six SATA ports, 10Gb Ethernet, dual 2.5Gb Ethernet, HDMI and DisplayPort, and the usual complement of USB ports.

    And one memory slot.

    There may be an eight-core N305 model on the way if you need a little more power.
