Say goodbye to visible cables – Concept PC parts from MSI, Asus, and Gigabyte eliminate cables by routing connectors to the rear of the motherboard.
Motherboards leading the way – MSI’s “Project Zero” motherboards and Gigabyte’s “Project Stealth” line already offer rear-connected motherboards, perfect for clean builds.
Graphics cards follow suit – Some new graphics card designs, like Gigabyte’s “Project Stealth,” draw power directly from the motherboard, eliminating the need for visible power cables.
So, yes, most of it is around cables, but cables are the messiest part of most PC builds today. It really does make sense for a complete rethink around cabling and cases.

Wir hatten ja auf dem #37C3 Kontakt zu vielen tollen Menschen. Darunter waren auch einige, die Interesse hatten, uns zu unterstützen. Heißt darum das Team #Nord als unseren neunten Standort ganz herzlich willkommen! 🥳 🧡Dies ist nun unser flächenmäßig größter Standort - er umfasst zwei komplette Bundesländer. 😄 Wenn ihr also irgendwo in, auf oder zwischen #Hamburg und #Flensburg, #SanktPeterOrding und #Fehmarn wohnt und Bock habt mitzumachen, meldet euch bei uns. Das neue Team freut sich.
In this #video we will use a #hardware attack with a #RaspberryPi Pico to bypass TPM-based #Bitlocker #encryption as used on most #Microsoft #Windows devices.

30 TB hard drives coming. Moore's Law keeps cranking. Thanks to something called "heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology". It works by temporarily heating the disk material just in the spot that's being written, and this allows writing to smaller regions at higher densities. It's tricky to do but apparently Seagate has mastered the technique. Apparently this technology was announced last June but volume production hasn't fully kicked in yet.
Seagate unveils Mozaic 3+ HDD platform as HAMR readies for volume ramp

On many notebooks it is possible to install several storage devices.
One way is to use an mSata drive in the wwan slot, if it is not needed for a modem (or if a modem is needed, it's possible to use an external usb modem instead).
It might be also possible to use a wifi card M.2 slot for storage: With an adapter NVMe drives can be connected.
And for machines with an express card slot, there are express card to NVMe adapters available.
So it's possible to have a storage device in the wwan slot, in the wifi slot and/or in the express card slot.
There are also dual slot adapters available, which make it possible to install two M.2 NVMe storages (instead of having one SSD).
Besides these solutions there are probably even more ways to install more storage devices on (older) notebooks.
Does anyone know if there is a way to use one slot for two 2,5" SATA drives (via adapter)? Did not see such a setup yet.
