SPOTLIGHT: T(ex)ting by Lora Mathis & Kasey Reinbold
Right in the feels! T(ex)ting is a series that explores how the termination of a relationship interrupts routine, and how technology's capacity to convert the emotional to the tangible (in the form of archived text messages) can prolong the healing process that follows a break-up.

Wow! Americans Might Support Smaller Government, After All
Take it for what you will. Frankly, I find it hard to believe....but it still brightened my morning. If true, this poll indicates that all is not lost. A pro-liberty candidate might actually have a chance in this election.
According to a Rasmussen poll,"Sixty-four percent (64%) of American voters say that they prefer smaller government with fewer services and lower taxes....Support for smaller government cuts across just about all demographic lines. It is the preference of 67% of men and 62% of women....61% of white votes and 52% of non-white votes."

I gave this product to my 12 lb. 1 year old shih tzu. 2 hours later he began throwing up and having diarrhea uncontrollably! Throwing up 2 mins apart from each other everywhere. His eyes were giant and he was shaking. We called the pet ER and they urged us to bring him in. Rushing him into the ER we were terrified and felt horrible for giving him this. He was examined and it was concluded that he went into anaphylactic shock from the allergy medicine. He was given iv fluid and epinephrine. They put a catheter in and had to observe him overnight for after shock. Thankfully he returned home the next day after a huge pet bill to save his life. If we would have waited he may not be here today. Please DO NOT give this to your dogs. IT CONTAINS grape seed extract, which is toxic to dogs!!!! Please help me signal boost so we can inform more people about this product.

Young voices will soar this year thanks to three Porirua women establishing a choir for Wellington children.
Sixty places are available in the Wellington Young Voices choir for 8 to 14-year-olds, which will meet on Mondays from 4pm to 6pm in Wellington City. A preview day this Saturday will allow kids a taste of the year to come.
Each term the choir will take a different theme, like "family" or "animals", and sing modern, kid-specific songs on that theme. At the end of each term the choir will give a performance at a fun, relevant location, such as the zoo for its animal songs or a restaurant for a food theme.
"It's not going to be the regular 'prim and proper, standing in three rows' choir. It'll be fun but to a high standard," says Papakowhai woman Christine Argyle, the choir's musical director. "It's going to be very exciting."
Ms Argyle started planning the choir in 2011 with accompanist Rosemary Russell and administrator Judy McKoy. The three have decades of experience between them directing, accompanying and singing in choirs.
The women saw a gap in Wellington's musical scene for primary and intermediate-age children who want to sing but might not have a choir at school.
Many children only get to sing pop songs at school, which are often far to low for their voices and have adult themes of love and heartbreak, they say. Wellington Young Voices will employ pieces by top children's composers like David Hamilton.
A trial of the choir was held last July as a school holiday programme, and was overwhelmingly successful, Mrs McKoy says.
Singing helped the children develop their voices and their confidence, she says.
"For the first time in their lives they stand up in front of hundreds and hundreds of people and many think 'I belong here'."
The choir will cost $125 per term but there is a scholarship scheme in place to encourage low-income children to join.
Wellington Young Voices preview day, February 16, $25. For information visit www.wellingtonyoungvoices.org.nz or contact Judy McKoy at 233 9365/021 263 9844.

put in the form of questions:
- how do I disable the annoying overwrite message?

Amazon.com Inc. fell as much as 4 percent in Nasdaq trading after Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said the Internet retailer may miss analysts' fourth-quarter sales estimates.
Amazon's sales may grow 38 percent from a year earlier to $17.9 billion, less than analysts' average estimate of $18.2 billion, Heather Bellini, an analyst at Goldman Sachs, said in a note today.
The retailer historically outpaces overall holiday e-commerce spending growth by 23 percentage points, according to the analysis. Bellini said comScore Inc. data released today show that U.S. Internet commerce rose 15 percent to $25.3 billion in the first 56 days of the holiday season.
"While the comScore numbers are just one data point which does not capture international sales or breakout individual companies' sales, taken alone they seem to suggest the potential for downside risk to consensus forecasts" for the fourth quarter, Bellini wrote.
Amazon fell 1.7 percent to $170.89 at 11:10 a.m. New York time, and traded as low as $166.97. The shares had declined 3.4 percent this year before today.
Separately, Amazon said it sold "well over" 1 million Kindles a week in December, with record demand led by its Kindle Fire tablet.
The top three sellers on Amazon's website were the Kindle Fire and two electronic readers, the Kindle Touch and Kindle, Seattle-based Amazon said today in a statement. Gifting of Kindle books rose 175 percent from a year earlier in the period from Nov. 25 to Christmas Day, Amazon said without providing sales data.
The company introduced the Kindle Fire, which has a 7-inch display and sells for less than half the price of Apple Inc.'s least-expensive iPad, on Sept. 28 in a bid to erode Apple's dominance. Amazon is releasing a Fire update to improve performance, make touch navigation easier and let users choose what items are displayed, after some users complained.

Police are investigating a crash involving an RCMP cruiser on an icy highway in the Rural Municipality of Alonsa, approximately 179 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg.
Preliminary findings indicate an RCMP officer in a marked police vehicle collided with a Chevrolet Equinox on Highway 50 around 11:30 a.m. on Jan. 14, according to police.
Both vehicles were following a snowplow as it cleared the highway when the driver of the Equinox came to a sudden stop, an RCMP statement released Thursday night said.
The police vehicle rear-ended the Equinox, sending it into the ditch. The police vehicle spun around, remaining on the highway facing north in the southbound lane.
The 72-year-old male driver and 80-year-old female passenger of the Equinox were not injured in the collision. The RCMP officer received minor injuries.
Blowing snow and low visibility were contributing factors to the collision.
An RCMP traffic analyst is helping with the investigation.

Holiday spending expected to climb in New York
Send this story to a friend
- Staff Business First
This should be good news for retailers across the state as more New Yorkers plan to increase their holiday spending.
A Siena College Research Institute survey released Tuesday found that the number of people planning to shell out more for gifts this Christmas season is nearly double — 13 percent to 7 percent — from a year ago.
SRI Director Dr. Don Levy said it's not quite a spending frenzy as the overall economy remains a concern.
"The percentage of residents holding their holiday budget under $600 has dropped from 61 to 57 percent and those planning to exceed $1000 in shopping cheer increased from 26 to 29 percent," he said. "The economy continues to dampen some spirits but even that Bah Humbug has lessened."
On other issues related to the holiday:
• A majority, 54 percent, think retailers should not be open to shoppers on Thanksgiving night.
• The percentage of residents that say they normally shop on Black Friday has remained constant at 19 percent but this year nearly a quarter, 23 percent of all residents and almost a third of both young adults and those with children plan to shop on that day.
• Nearly 80 percent of New Yorkers will be making donations of money, food or gifts to charitable organizations and 39 percent, up from 31 percent a year ago, plan to volunteer time this holiday season for organizations that help people during the holidays.
• 75 percent of all New Yorkers continue to say that they do put up a Christmas tree in their home for the holiday season.
• 37 percent of state residents, up from 30 percent a year ago, say they believe in Santa Claus. Belief in Santa is greatest among older New Yorkers and is stronger among women than it is among men.
Over a quarter of New Yorkers, 27 percent, think they will gain weight during the holiday season while two- thirds believe they will avoid putting on extra pounds.
• Clothing is the top gift again this season with 73 percent of all New Yorkers and 86 percent of those with children at home planning to give clothing as a gift.
"The economy continues to be a concern for many New Yorkers. Similar to last year, half of residents say that compared to the last holiday season their personal finances have remained about the same and again this year, only about a quarter feel as though things have gotten better. But as fewer allow the state of the economy to have a negative effect on their holiday spending plans and more add dollars to their budget, and names to their list, we can expect more gifts to be exchanged and more activity at the mall," Levy added.
The SRI survey was conducted Nov. 12-15, and 18, by random landline and cell phone calls to 727 New York adults.

15 Florida lobbying firms collected more than $500K in fees during second quarter of 2012
Despite the legislative session beginning during the first part of the year, at least four lobbying firms still collected more than $1 million in fees during the second quarter of the year, well after session had ended.
Another eleven lobbyists or lobbying firms billed $500,000 to $1 million in fees. Thirteen more brought in a quarter-million to a half-million dollars in lobbying revenue from April through June.
The four firms that topped $1 million were Ballard Partners, GrayRobinson, Ronald L. Book PA and Southern Strategy Group. The reports don't give the exact totals collected by the firms, but they detail some of the largest payments made by clients.
Ballard Partners, for example, collected $79,000 from Automated HealthCare Solutions Inc., a technology company that opposed bills aimed at limiting how much doctors can charge for dispensing drugs to workers-compensation insurance patients. The bills ultimately died.
Book's best paying client during the second quarter was the West Flagler Kennel Club, a pari-mutuel that was involved in a fierce debate about whether lawmakers should allow up to three resort casinos in the state. The casino proposals failed to pass the House or Senate.
Book offered some insight into the economics of lobbying, "We're over there all the time, not just working on bills but on rule-making issues," Book said in an interview with the Florida Current's Bill Cotterell. "We've got all the issues relative to delivery of health care that are a year-round kind of thing. We've got to stay on top of it as the governor and agencies are working on the budgets."
With reports still being filed Wednesday, it is too early to compare lobbyist compensation during the first quarter with the same period in previous years. But a once-a-decade redistricting process caused the 2012 session to begin in January and end in March, squeezing it all into the year's first quarter — unlike typical years when the session starts in March and ends in early May.
The reports list the clients represented by lobbying firms and give broad ranges of the total amounts of money that firms collect. The eleven firms that reported receiving between $500,000 and $999,999 were Capital City Consulting LLC, Colodny Fass Talenfeld Karlinsky & Abate PA, Corcoran & Johnston, Dutko Worldwide, Floridian Partners, Foley & Lardner, Fowler White Boggs PA, Johnson & Blanton, The Advocacy Group at Cardenas Partners, The Rubin Group, and Tsamoutales Strategies.
The thirteen firms that reported receiving between $250,000 and $499,999 were Advantage Consulting Team, Akerman Senterfitt, Anfield Consulting, Becker & Poliakoff PA, Greenberg Traurig PA, Gunster Yoakley & Stewart PA, Larry J. Overton & Associates Inc., Metz Husband & Daughton PA, Pennington Moore Wilkinson Bell & Dunbar PA, Pittman Law Group PL, Prieguez & Weems LLC, Smith Bryan & Myers Inc., Spearman Management Inc., The Mayernick Group LLC, and William J. Peebles Attorney at Law.

What the gossip mags say

Actor Shavaughn Ruakere is chasing her dreams in Los Angeles after the fiery conclusion to her role in Shortland Street.
The Kiwi soap ended 2013 with Ruakere's character, Roimata Ngatai, being badly injured in an explosion at a beach house. When the show started for 2014 the heroic nurse died on the operating table.
Keeping the outcome secret over the holiday break was "so hard", in the face of constant requests for information, Ruakere, 35, told New Zealand Woman's Weekly.
She had seen an opportunity to try something new when her Shortland Street contract came up for renewal last April.
"They asked me to sign on for another year, but I couldn't commit as I wanted to be free to head overseas," Ruakere said.
After filming her last scenes on the soap, she visited LA for a couple of weeks to look at work options, meeting up with former Shortland Street castmates Fleur Saville and Ari Boyland.
Since returning home, Ruakere had been sending taped auditions to the US, and expected to return to LA this month for the three-month pilot season when acting opportunities become more available, the Weekly said.
Before returning to the US, she would work on a six-part New Zealand miniseries set during World War 1.
Heading to the US meant Ruakere would have to be apart from partner of three years, radio DJ Clarke Gayford, 36, but she emphasised that New Zealand would remain her home.
She also wanted to have children, and realised she was not getting any younger.
Woman's Day has pictures of the wedding of All Black Aaron Cruden to teacher Grace King at Wakefields Lodge on the outskirts of Palmerston North.
The two 25-year-olds met a year before Cruden was diagnosed with testicular cancer at the age of 19. Their love grew stronger as they faced the disease together, Woman's Day said.
"It's pretty surreal - it hasn't sunk in yet, but it will over the next few days once we go on honeymoon," Cruden said soon after the ceremony.
While the couple would have some time to soak in the joys of married life, both were excited at the prospect of raising a family.
For Nicole Kidman and New Zealand-born musician Keith Urban, both 46, married life was looking a bit bumpy, Woman's Day reported.
The problem was the close bond that had formed between Urban and follow American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez, 44.
Kidman, who was filming a movie in the Sahara Desert, had been "very upset" when she saw internet pictures of Urban nuzzling into Lopez at a promotional appearance for American Idol in LA.
"She tends to keep her feelings bottled up, but she wasn't at all happy when she saw those photos on a website," an on-set source said.
The magazine reported the insider saying Kidman had raced to her trailer to call her husband, who told her she was overreacting.
"She's had a difficult time lately and seems to be suffering a crisis of self-confidence over their marriage, her career and even the way she looks," the source said.
Actor Katie Holmes, 35, the former wife of Tom Cruise, has found a new man - Meryl Streep's son, Henry Wolfe Gummer.
According to New Idea, 64-year-old Streep and Holmes bonded on the set of the film, The Giver, in South Africa last year.
Holmes had been open about wanting to have a man in her life again, an insider said.
Streep decided to show Holmes a picture of her 34-year-old son, a singer and actor.
Holmes had declared 2014 would be her year of the manhunt and had drawn up a list of requirements of what she wanted in a guy.
"Obviously her No 1 priority is a guy who's good with kids, and Henry's wanted to find the right girl to start a family with for the better part of two years now," a family insider said.
Cruise, 51, also wanted to settle down again and was using casting auditions for Mission: Impossible 5 to find a wife.

Pay Off Your Credit Card Debt
Pay Off Your Credit Card
Debt - When assessing your debt load, it is always wise to remember
that credit cards carry the highest interest, so you should pay them...
read entire tip
When making a decision to go and sign up for a cell phone keep in mind that most cell phone companies will put you through a lot of examination before allowing you on their billing systems. The process of getting a phone will require a credit check, like that of a credit card, so if you have a bad credit history or no history at all, finding a cell phone deal will be difficult.
The route that most people take who have either bad credit history or no history, or just don't want to bother going through a credit check is to take the option of a prepaid contract. This option is better for users who seek an alternative to a credit approved phone service because it clearly defines the terms of how much service you can use. This contract is known as a no credit check phone.
With a no credit check phone contract all you have to do is just pay the amount of money that it will take to upload minutes to your phone and you are off on your way to being mobile. It's that simple.
Another advantage to having a no credit check phone is that there is no down payment on this type of phone. There are also no month to month payments for service to the cell phone company. If you decide that you want to not use the services of the company, you can take the option of terminating the service altogether and not be charged for it.
Also, another great thing about having this no credit check phone is that you an only use the phone minutes that you have purchased, which means that once you use up these minutes you cannot go over the limit and be charged. Therefore, your phone budget is under your control and you need not to worry about being charged more fees or awaiting a monthly bill.
A prepaid phone plan is a great option for people who do not plan on using their phones on a regular basis, and for those who have either no credit or bad credit histories.
So, if you are looking into a no credit check cell phone service, make sure that you research deals either online, or make a few trips to your local providers to see what they have to offer you without a credit check.
There is no reason as to why you can't have a cell phone in this day and age just based on your credit history. The prepaid deals may be more money per minute use, but if you are not an avid cell phone user you can monitor your minutes and not end up paying a fortune to have a mobile phone.

Fairy of DeathShe's the prettiest woman on earth. A dress woven from ivy and lilies whispers of death, unheard.Is she even human? the prince thinks to himself as he tries to get closer. He wants to touch those rosebud lips. A faerie's kiss means immortality, doesn't it...But she takes a delicate, white fingertip to prod his nose, and he falls back beneath the surface. Cold, black water embraces him. Sinking deeper, the prince hears only the first few notes of her song.After the ritual is finished, the cursed witch of the woods cackles with laughter. She'll last another hundred years from now. A royal child's bones, a drop of blue blood in the pond of youth... These days, she has given up rivalling dragons and stealing away fair princesses.No one ever sets out to save the prince in a fairy tale.

Early WinterDeath drives a green Packard. Depression era, with modern bumper stickers and parking tickets which, if you look closely, were written out by Hammurabi. I met him once, he'd pulled up outside my house and hopped out for a smoke break on the street. He looked like he didn't have anything to do when, far as I know, somebody dies once every few seconds, somewhere. I went outside and asked him who he was after."You. But not for a while. Y'know Arnold Rothstein got shot just three blocks from here?""I thought he was killed in New York. Definitely in America.""Who you gonna believe?"Death flicked his smoke to the asphalt and crushed it with a casual twist of his purple dress shoe. Then he drove off, leaving me feeling a little melancholy and a little drained. Never could get the hang of snow in October.
I Think I Like You!Khepri shuffled her paws nervously against the ground, the grass tickling her pink paw pads as the smell of wildflowers drifted all around her. It was a pleasant afternoon, especially in the flower fields where Khepri sat. The wind blew gently against her fur and sent wave like ripples through the variety of wildflowers that called the field home. Not only did the wind prevent the day from becoming to hot, but it also seemed to highlight the beauty of the place. Unfortunately, Khepri was too nervous to admire any of it. The young adult had a lot on her mind, but the most prominent were her thoughts of the tom cat, and her closest friend Pangur. Since meeting him in this very field, they'd started hanging out and getting together frequently. Khepri loved these times, because when she was with Pangur, she forgot all her worries and just had fun. But during their last visit, she'd made a startling realization. She liked Pangur. Liked him as more then a friend.So it a fit of bravery, she'
OW: Choosing ClassesVirgil had no intention to do more assignments than he needed to in order to pass. Especially with the tournament, things had become stressful and he hated stress. So after the lost round against Broken, the fae decided to drop out and instead have a month of sweet and dearly missed idleness. But to his dismay, his familiar didn't share his approach. It had taken Virgil a large amount of nerves and bribery to stop Kimi reminding him about his assignments on a daily basis. Sadly, a part of said bribery was planning the next term and classes instead of simply choosing what looked good. Also, the skunk apparently was convinced that it was a good idea to remind Virgil about this promise every morning.Finally, the fae gave in and took a look at the course book."I think we should work more on the familiar thing", the skunk suggested. Virgil nodded slowly. not taking this class would mean he was stuck with an annoying familiar while none of them could actually benefit from their bond."Oh,
Lazy SundayPeace and calm seemed to be rarer commodities than platinum in this apartment, and far more valuable than any sort of metal. It was only once in a blue moon that Amy was greeted with the chance to be alone in the relative quiet of her home, with no pesky roommate filling the air with some grating new noise every few seconds. In fleeting moments such as this one, where Sarah wasn't filling the air with aural pollution, she liked to renew her resolve to never, ever have a roommate again.In the few hours she had to herself while Sarah ran around on her Sunday afternoon errands, Amy was enjoying a relaxing span of time laying on the couch, lazily lounging in front of the TV with a small bowl of grapes and a binger's dozen of episodes from the latest obscure yet charming old sci-fi show to have showed up in her streaming service queue. Her roommate like to joke about how the weekends usually consisted of a Streaming Sunday, a Streaming Saturday, or both, commentary typically fo
Mama, Are You Proud?What do you hope to accomplish here?It's been a long time since she's heard that voice. Questioning, berating, mocking her choices. She's not surprised to hear it again. In times of stress, in times of doubt, her mother always comes to her, a scathing, scornful, dismissive voice. Telling her that her thoughts and motives are laughable. Did you think this was going to work?She looks around herself, at the cats who walk in step, behind, and in front of her. The unnaturally blank expanse of the pelts of the cats they follow, deceivingly tattooless to the naked eye. These cats clearly thought their powers weren't necessary to keep things under control, yet they fenced in the tribe cats, walking in steady formation that left no room for escape. And Shi was certain that, should someone change their mind at this point, they would be taken down in less than a heartbeat by golden flashing faces.She looks around again, double checking that the quest
We serve the same god, she and I.We serve the same god, she and I.She the northerner, child of the raven, who lusts for power, and her power is lust.My every death, my every life, has been given to him.And she'd no soul to give, only a vessle opened.My sacrificed are in honor: the bones of my enemies, drenched in richest fat, and their souls offered up to him.I sing his songs of praise, and carry the calling bells, and the temple I had built up smokes and hangs with silk finer than what I wear.Yet she builds no alter, and her silks are draped about her form covering little.Can even the god of death be more interested in the act of creating life, than in the souls he rules?

Breast cancer group questions value of pink ribbon campaigns
Send this to a friend
- Daniel S. Levine
Barbara Brenner is seeing red over pink.
Brenner is executive director of Breast Cancer Action, a San Francisco advocacy group known within the nonprofit world as the "bad girls of breast cancer."
That's not to say Brenner calls National Institutes of Health Director Elias Zerhouni at three in the morning to ask him if his refrigerator is running.
Instead, what has won that moniker for the organization is its willingness to ask questions, often of the impolite sort, and encourage others to do the same.
With Breast Cancer Awareness Month upon us, consumers are being inundated with products bearing pink ribbons and a promise that a purchase will help support the fight against breast cancer.
All during October, you can eat, drink and do whatever follows biologically to help the fight against breast cancer. Quilted Northern Ultra toilet paper donates 50 cents for every proof of purchase collected and mailed in from specially marked pink ribbon packages.
Other products sporting pink ribbons include golf balls, umbrellas, pencil sharpeners, grills, watches, wine, jewelry, paint, candy, soda, pens, iPod cases, shower gel, mixers and even pink-colored Tic-Tacs.
Aside from worries that such marketing efforts trivialize the disease and that companies do a poor job of explaining how their donations will be used to fight breast cancer, Brenner believes so-called "cause marketing" is more about marketing than cause.
"With all of these campaigns, people have to start asking some very serious questions about what's happening so they know where their money is going," Brenner said.
Breast Cancer Action has launched its own campaign, think before you pink, which lists some of the many products bearing pink ribbons this year. It urges consumers to find out how much of their purchase is going to breast-cancer efforts, and exactly which organizations stand to benefit, before they buy.
Daniel S. Levine can be reached at email@example.com or (415) 288-4949.

LOS ANGELES — Danny Green hit the go-ahead 3-pointer with 9.3 seconds left, Tony Parker scored 19 points and the San Antonio Spurs beat Los Angeles 84-82 Tuesday night in the Lakers' first loss since firing coach Mike Brown.
Danny Green's 3-pointer pushes San Antonio past Lakers 84-82
After Pau Gasol missed a 3-pointer, Tiago Splitter's hustle prevented the Lakers from controlling the rebound before the buzzer sounded on Los Angeles' first game since hiring Mike D'Antoni late Sunday night. Interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff ran the team for the third straight game.
Tim Duncan had 18 points and 11 rebounds for the Spurs, who improved the Western Conference's best record to 7-1 thanks to Green's third 3-pointer of the night.
Kobe Bryant had 28 points and eight rebounds for the Lakers, who dropped to 3-5 after committing 17 turnovers on a poor shooting night. Dwight Howard had 13 points and 15 rebounds.
The Lakers found another kind of drama in their first game since the club surprisingly bypassed 11-time NBA champion Phil Jackson to hire D'Antoni, who is expected to arrive in Los Angeles on Wednesday. The Lakers' crowd cheered for Bickerstaff, but never broke out into the "We want Phil!" chants that occurred in their past two games.
Both teams struggled with poor shooting until the final minutes, when Antawn Jamison's 3-pointer from the corner put the Lakers ahead 78-77 with 2:10 to play. Duncan reclaimed the lead with a jumper, but Gasol hit two free throws with 1:36 left and added an elbow jumper.
Duncan trimmed the lead to one point before Metta World Peace missed an open jumper in the final minute. The Spurs worked the ball to Green out of a timeout, and the guard confidently drained his 3-pointer, accidentally bumping Bryant during his celebration.
The Lakers' final possession developed poorly, and the 7-foot Gasol had to force up a 3-point attempt.
Despite the loss, several days of upheaval finally abated Tuesday for the Lakers — even though their new coach still isn't in town. The Lakers haven't said when D'Antoni will formally take over the team, and Bickerstaff could still be running the bench Friday when the Phoenix Suns visit Staples Center.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Most of today's hardware manufacturers are building servers with at least one SATA Port, but not every systems engineer utilizes them. This is considered a loss in the game of maximizing potential storage space in a fixed unit. The SATADOM Series was created by Innodisk as a high-performance, small form factor boot drive with low power consumption to be plugged into the unused SATA port on your server board as an alternative to hard drive or USB boot-up. Built for 1U systems, this powerful device is smaller than a one dollar coin, and frees up otherwise dead space on your motherboard. To meet the requirements of tomorrow's cloud hardware, Innodisk invested internal R&D resources to develop our SATA III series of products. The SATA III SATADOM boasts 500/180MBs R/W Speeds respectively, or double R/W Speed of SATA II products.
