Toshiba reduces mobile chip power use by two-thirds with new cache memory
Toshiba has announced the development of a new type of cache memory that promises to cut mobile processor power consumption by as much as two-thirds. Today’s mobile processors rely on high-speed static random-access memory (SRAM) to function. The problem with SRAM is it will only retain data when power is applied. That data also has to be refreshed regularly (many times a second), meaning it is a constant drain on a battery. And as chip performance has increased, so has the power required for SRAM and the leakage that occurs, meaning an alternative is highly desirable. Toshiba has developed STT-MRAM to solve the problem. MRAM is non-volatile memory, meaning it …

Question by naruhina67: How well would a nine year old toshiba laptop be?

Toshiba Satellite P845t-S4310 Review

APNA 990 AM – NZ’S FAVOURITE 24 HR HINDI RADIO – Toshiba 4-legged Robot to Venture into Nuclear
Toshiba 4-legged Robot to Venture into Nuclear Power PlantsOne thing’s for sure – nuclear power plants are not exactly the safest place in the world to be, never mind that it delivers far more energy to the world compared to traditional methods, although there is the issue of disposing of nuclear waste in a clean and efficient manner. After all, all of that garbage will still need to go somewhere, right? Well, the massive earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in March last year still lingers on in the memories of many, where entire towns were leveled, and the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant of Tokyo Electric Power Company Inc. was …

Toshiba VC: Windows 8 PC’s ‘rushed’
Wired’s Alexandra Chang yesterday published a must-read report on the state of the Windows 8 OEM community, noting that while there is certainly little ecstasy resulting from early sales figures, it’s not all despondency and missed targets. However, a key quote from Toshiba’s Jeff Barney, its VP head of its America’s PC work, belays a key material weakness in the current crop of Windows 8 computers that are up for sale [Formatting: TNW]: To be frank, the OEM community will bring better form factors to market. This first generation is a rush to get there in the beginning. They are not as commercially viable as they are media viable. Over time you will …
