Discover the Fastest SAPPHIRE Gaming Graphics Cards! SAPPHIRE Technology launched its much-anticipated SAPPHIRE Radeon Vega 64 graphics cards. The Vega architecture boasts significant improvements, focused on maximizing the performance. Vega cards are designed for enthusiasts seeking top-ofthe-chart framerates in games of today and tomorrow – in Ultra details and VR. SAPPHIRE Technology is introducing three Vega-powered models: - SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 8 GB HBM2 Liquid Cooled - SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 8 GB HBM2 - SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 8 GB HBM2 Limited Edition
Thanks to automatic, fine-grained memory movement controlled by the high-bandwidth cache controller, new architecture enables access to much larger, more detailed assets. Vega GPU utilizes HBM2, the latest in graphics memory technology, to provide incredible levels of power efficiency and memory performance. RTG engineers also equipped Vega chips with Next-Gen Compute units. This translates to higher possible clock speeds, better throughput and double the peak polygon per clock handled by the engine (vs R9 Fury X). The Pixel Engine also received a Next-Gen makeover, boosting the shading performance especially vital for gaming. Significant advancements were made to the geometry engine as well. Gaming performance.
Vega is a major evolution of the Radeon graphics architecture, with innovations across multiple core fronts of the silicon. New GPUs feature a High Bandwidth Cache and memory controllers remove the capacity limitations of traditional GPU memory. 14 ______
SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 graphics cards are the new high-end models of the Radeon family, we know you’ve been waiting for. The time has finally come to showcase the performance of Vega in the most important category of software on the planet: Games. Spoiler: it’s fast. Like, Ultra-details and VR Premium-fast!

Let the Gaming Continue: Seagate Releases four New Game Drives. More storage for your Xbox or Playstation is a necessity for gamers these days. For example, the ten best-selling games in 2016 needed 568 GB storage together, more than the standard storage in certain types of Xbox One or the PS4. Having to delete a game in order to be able to download a new one, is still a harsh reality for many. That’s why Seagate had developed the Seagate Game Drives for Xbox and Playstation. And now they have extended their portfolio with four new Game Drives. Xbox Game Pass – 2 or 4 TB Game Drive. Xbox Game Pass, the musthave gaming subscription service for Xbox One, is here! With an Xbox Game Pass membership, gamers can play from a regularly updated catalog of 100+ Xbox games.
Seagate 8 TB Game Drive Hub for Xbox. Seagate took its latest storage solution for Xbox gamers to the next level. The new Seagate® Game Drive Hub for Xbox features 8 TB of storage and a multi-purpose USB hub for players with massive game libraries. Designed and tested in collaboration with Xbox, Game Drive Hub for Xbox works seamlessly with any console in the Xbox One family of devices (Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox One X). Seamless Gaming Performance and Experience. Game Drive Hub for Xbox connects by high-speed USB 3.0, which gives full gaming performance—like playing from the console’s hard drive.
Where will I keep all these games?
Seagate 2 TB Game Drive for PS4.
Seagate unveils its latest storage solution designed exclusively for Xbox, the Seagate Game Drive for Xbox Game Pass Special Edition, giving gamers up to 4 TB of much needed extra storage space for their current library and games from the Xbox Game Pass catalog.
With 2 TB of storage, Seagate Game Drive for PS4 can easily store 50+ games — that’s enough room for the classics and the hottest new releases without having to delete anything. Game Drive’s USB 3.0 connection gives full-speed gaming — just like playing from the console’s internal drive. Plus it is compatible with any generation of PS4 (System Software version 4.50 or higher).

Fast RAID Storage, more MacBook Ports: LaCie 2big Dock Thunderbolt 3. Creative professionals love Apple’s slim, powerful MacBook Pro laptop. The only catch is that it now offers only Thunderbolt 3 ports (four of them) — a change that means most of their current peripherals aren’t compatible with the newest MacBook Pro. In order to connect phones, cameras, external drives and other devices, users have to keep track of a bunch of dongles. Problem solved. LaCie, Seagate’s premium storage brand, today announced a professional storage solution that combines 5-in-1 docking station capabilities and delivers 20TB of enterprise NAS-class storage capacity. Ports to ingest footage from drones, phones and DSLR cameras. The LaCie 2big Dock Thunderbolt 3 features SD and CompactFlash card slots for ingesting footage captured by drones or DSLR cameras and a USB 3.0 hub for charging and accessing a phone, connecting another drive or a digital camera to offload footage. Dual Thunderbolt 3 ports can also be used to charge a laptop or for daisychaining additional storage solutions. A USB 3.1 port offers universal compatibility with the USB-C interface and even USB 3.0 computers with an included adapter cable. There’s even a DisplayPort connector at the back that can be used to connect to high-resolution displays.

1 hour of footage in 1 minute. “These hard drives are engineered to work 24X7 on very intensive tasks,” says Clement Barberis, LaCie product marketing manager. “Creative pros value their reliability, because they allow them to work longer, with no lag or downtime in their workflows.” The 2big Dock includes a five-year limited warranty and an industrial design that complements the rest of LaCie’s “big” line of professional storage products. In other words, think of the 2big Dock as much more than huge, very fast storage. “Computers used to be the central part of a desktop setup,” says Barberis, “with everything connected to it — a keyboard, mouse, display screen and external storage. But with the shift to more powerful and thinner laptops, particularly in the Apple environment, a device like the 2big Dock becomes a very practical tool for creative pros.” You can use it to charge a phone or a laptop. It has multiple slots and ports for transferring data, and it delivers plenty of capacity for backing up or archiving large files. You only need to connect one cable to your laptop.

Tape: Your Last Line of Defense against Ransomware. Ransomware has been in the news a lot recently. Scams like CryptoLocker and WannaCry are rapidly becoming one of the biggest threats to corporate data. More and more criminal organizations are climbing on the ransomware bandwagon, and the financial impact is enormous. One of the most important things a company can do to protect itself against ransomware attacks, is to make sure it has backup copies of its data. And there’s a simple and easy to remember rule when it comes to backups: we call it “3-2-1 data protection”: • • •
3 copies of your data 2 different types of media (tape and disk, for example) 1 copy offline and off-site
The offline copy is the most important component of ransomware protection. Why? When ransomware enters your systems, usually through a PC, it begins to encrypt your data and can target network-attached storage (NAS), virtualization, online collaboration tools, and more. Offline copies of your data are the only safe files, simply because criminals can’t delete or encrypt what they can’t access over the network. You can consider a couple different strategies to manage offline copies. Most companies opt to use a small tape library and tape rotation system. Tape rotation and off-site storage of backup copies also prevent any danger of data loss from fire, flood, or other natural disasters at the physical site of your data center. The bottom line? Ransomware-style cyber attacks may be common and difficult to stop completely, but a best practice backup strategy that includes multiple copies of data on different kinds of media, including tape, can eliminate or minimize data loss.
