Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Want to boost your notebook or desktop with the help of a solid-state drive? Memory specialist Kingston has launched upgrade kits for this very purpose.
The Kingston SSDNow V Series drives come in 64 and 128G versions.
The idea is that you use the included Acronis True Image software to clone your existing drive to the SSD. That way there's no need to mess around reinstalling the operating system or applications.
Once that job's done, the old drive is freed up for file storage. The notebook version of the kit includes an external drive case, and the desktop kit comes with brackets and cables.
"We are trying to garner mass-market adoption of SSDs by bundling together all of the software, hardware and step-by-step instructions in a couple of low-cost options aimed squarely at everyday users," said Vaughan Nankivell, Kingston's regional manager for Australia and New Zealand.
As for performance, "Based on our internal suite of benchmark tests, users can expect to see an overall drive improvement of approximately 50 percent over existing 7200RPM and 5400RPM hard-disk drives," said Louis Kaneshiro, Senior Technology Manager, Kingston.
