Introduction This article will explain how you can reduce the rainbow effect with subtitles. The rainbow effect occurs in some DLP (Digital Light Processing) projectors, and it’s a visual artifact that can be very noticeable to some people. DLP and Laser projectors utilize a technology known as Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) to create images by…
Rationale I’ve been using the MSI B450 Pro Carbon as my motherboard for a long time. It came with a very neat audio feature, called Nahimic Sound Sharing. Windows, by default, will only output audio to a single device. So, if you have two people trying to listen to music with their own headphones, you…
WARNING: Some people reported bricked disks with this process, read this thread carefully before proceeding. If you own a Seagate Exos (in my case, X16), the drive usually comes pre-formatted with 512E sectors, but does support 4KN Advanced format. While the performance advancements of this conversion are unproven, I thought I’d do it just for…
NOTE: Chris Hill wrote a very detailed post on Reddit with more information on ReFS with integrity streams, and also created a pretty impressive automated PowerShell script. His results are very concerning, and I’d advise to not trust ReFS until further notice. I will be redoing my testing and will update the post once we…
Introduction This post will show you how to convert NVME to 4KN Advanced Format, as by default the vast majority of NVME SSDs will ship with logical sectors set to 512 bytes. In my previous post I discussed performance differences between 512 vs 4096 bytes sector format, and showed that at least as far as…
On this blog post I compare 512E vs 4KN Performance on NVME SSDs. I have been using 4K native sector size on my Exos disks, and recently came across a way to convert NVME SSDs to run in native 4K sector size as well. If you have a Sabrent drive, there is an easy way…
