CalDigit TS4 docking station configuration includes 18 ports

Published

CalDigit introduced the Thunderbolt Station 4 or TS4 docking station. Its configuration includes 18 ports. This is more than is usually the case with such devices. What’s more, the TS4’s 18 ports include a full-size DisplayPort 1.4 connector, which is rare. Meanwhile, its presence eliminates the need to use an adapter. Another advantage is the ability to provide power to very demanding laptops. The dock is capable of delivering 98 watts.

The docking station is equipped with a 2.5GbE port. It’s claimed to be the fastest network port you’ll find on Thunderbolt 4 docks. Of course, the 2.5GbE port is backwards compatible with 1GbE devices, but its potential is only unlocked when connected to 2.5GbE devices.

Among the eight USB ports, five are connected to USB-A connectors, three are connected to USB-C connectors. One of the latter provides power up to 20W, which allows it to be used to quickly charge devices. All USB ports except the two USB-A ports on the back of the TS4 provide charging for devices connected to the TS4, even if the dock itself is not connected to the host. All ports support 10 Gbps. As for the Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gb / s) ports, there are three of them. One of them is used to connect to the host, and the remaining ports can be used to add monitors, SSDs, and other devices.

Windows users can connect one monitor up to 8K resolution to the dock, while macOS users can connect one 6K resolution monitor at 60Hz. With a dual monitor connection, Windows users can connect up to two 4K x 60Hz monitors, and macOS users on the M1 Pro or M1 Max can connect up to two 6K x 60Hz monitors. M1 computers do not support dual monitors.

Sales of TS4 will begin in mid-March at a price of 330 euros.

Some AMD processors may freeze after 1044 days of continuous

AMD Epyc processors of the Rome generation (the second generation of Epyc) revealed one curious feature. It lies in the fact that such a CPU can freeze after 1044 days of continuous operation.

This feature means that owners of servers based on such CPUs may need to reboot the server before the specified time in order to avoid system freezes.

The problem is related to the fact that the CPU core cannot wake up from the CC6 sleep state. That being said, AMD states that the crash time may vary depending on the spread spectrum and REFCLK frequency. The nature of the problem is of a hardware nature, so, unfortunately, it will not be possible to fix it.

In addition to rebooting, there is a second method to avoid freezing: disable CC6 sleep mode.

In general, in most cases, this problem will not affect server owners, since maintenance and installation of security updates usually occur much more often, including requiring a reboot. However, in case someone uses the Linux hot fix feature to upgrade without rebooting, they may encounter the above problem.

The updated eighth generation Volkswagen Golf was first shown without

It’s no secret that Volkswagen is preparing an updated eighth-generation Golf – it should debut at the end of this year (or early next) and will be sold unchanged until 2028, after which it will go down in history. And now, for the first time, the updated Golf (and even in the plug-in hybrid version) was captured without camouflage – it winds kilometers somewhere on the roads of Germany.

Since we are talking about a mid-term update, there are no special innovations in the exterior. The car will get narrower headlights, a slightly modified front bumper, taillights with new graphics.

But in the cabin of such a car (Golf eHybrid is one of the top versions of the model) a media system with a huge screen is installed. The company does not officially name the size of the diagonal, but, apparently, a 15-inch screen is installed as in the ID electric liftback. 7. But if for a large ID. 7 (we recall that it is the electric successor to the Passat) such a display is still somehow appropriate, but for a Golf it looks very large.

It is also noted that the touchpads on the steering wheel, which Golf owners complained about, have been replaced with conventional mechanical buttons.

As you can see, the device will be available in at least three colors: black, blue and gradient silver.

Resource Winfuture confirms recent leaks regarding the characteristics of the smartphone. The novelty will receive a 90-Hz screen with a diagonal of 6.79 inches, SoC Helio G88, 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash memory, a 50-megapixel main camera and a 5000 mAh battery with 18-watt charging. As we have already noted, in comparison with Redmi 10, which debuted almost two years ago, the only important difference is the significantly enlarged screen. Perhaps Xiaomi also used a different camera sensor, keeping the resolution, but we don’t know about that yet.
