    Now we have HDDs with dual-core processors

    http://www.myce.com/news/wd-releases...ocessor-64915/

    Desktop and notebook CPUs, handheld device CPUs and now HDD CPUs are available in dual core versions...
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    Haven't WD Black disks had dual CPU for a while now?

      I wonder when HDD CPUs would go quad-core...

        Procedural question about BGA rework and removal of CPUs
        by ugamazing
        I have been working to develop a consistent and reliable method/workflow for removing, re-balling, and replacing CPUs on various MacBook Pro models (2015-2020).

        I have done OK so far, but there's one detail I need to sort out. I'm hoping someone much more experienced than myself may be able to shed some light:

        I am noticing the pulled CPUs (to be re-balled) come off fine, and they "look" fine as well, immediately when I pull them. However, within a few minutes, after cooling, the CPU chips develop a very, very slight curve/bend. It's SO SLIGHT, maybe a 1-2%...

        Dell Optiplex 760 USFF BIOS Mod Request for QuadCore CPUs
        by Nebukadnerzar_V
        Hi guys!
        I have a Dell Optiplex 760 USFF (Ultra-Small Form-Factor).
        It currently only supports Dual-Core CPUs and will halt with an error message, when a QuadCore is installed.

        I have seen people running QuadCores in these machines, but the BIOS needs to be modded.
        Since I have not found the modded BIOS to download anywhere, I am asking you guys for help:

        Could you please add support for QuadCore CPUs (in my case the Core2Quad Q9550) to the BIOS?

        I have attached the Dump of my machine.

        Reverse engineering of DoCreate DHJ567 handheld spot welder
        by spleenharvester
        Hello everyone

        I attach a schematic and teardown photos for the DoCreate DHJ567 handheld spot welder. I bought this welder for temporary use while my supercapacitor welder was waiting for replacement parts. It cost only £24, though there is a screenless version available for £17.

        Performance: The absolute maximum it can handle appears to be 0.15mm of pure nickel. Reliability was not great - welds were very inconsistent, ranging from weak attachment to burning through the strip. However, I was able to build a 5S2P pack without losing any cells. It's a bit difficult getting...

        Working with Bga chips especially CPUS
        by ducky29
        Hello. I mostly do small electronics and tv repairs. I am confident with small bga chips but I never was successful with removing large chips especially cpus. Is it possible to remove them just using a preheater and hot air gun or I need something more advanced like a bga machine with temperature profiles, cooling fans, etc etc.


        Any suggestion on aliexpress/ebay are welcomed. I am on a tight budget, max I can do is about 200$. Please anyone with more experience can give me some suggestions?

        Thanks in advance.

        Panasonic Toughbook HDDs with hard drive encryption - how to reuse them?
        by jasakl
        Dear community,

        i have searched the internet but i dont found a working solution for my problem:
        I have about 150 hard drives (mostely from hitachi 160gb HTS543216L9SA00) from Pansasonic CF-19 MK3 Notebooks.
        All devices had a BIOS Password and HDD encryption enabled.

        Now i try to reuse the HDDs, but i cant format them. I already tried windows Diskpart with argument "attributes disk clear readonly" but it says "cant delete" and i tryed several partition and low level formatters (like partition wizard, AOMEI and Easus).
        But all of...
