Does Ring Alarm Pro still dial up decent value in 2023?
2023
When CNET first evaluated The Ring Alarm Pro in late 2021, former editor David Priest proclaimed it “one of the most compelling DIY home security systems I’ve tested, period.” But does that still (pardon the pun) ring true for 2023?
The answer is a resounding yes. Ring Alarm Pro’s merging of an Eero Wi-Fi mesh router with a DIY security system gives you a lot of flexibility in arranging your setup. You can either pay for the base station itself (which also serves as a router) or spend just a little more for a basic package that includes the base station, several door and window sensors, motion detectors, a keypad and a siren. You also get a choice of professional monitoring subscriptions. Even better, you get backup Wi-Fi and local processing and storage.
Our original review follows.
Ring Alarm Pro is an affordable system with impressive smarts, lots of flexibility and a rock-solid base that will make most happy. Ring even offers admirable data security and privacy options if, like me, you’re worried about the company’s spotty track record when working with police and subsequently degrading community privacy.
In short, the Ring Alarm Pro isn’t just a game-changing device for Amazon; it’s a ground-shaking product for the entire DIY home security market.
Ring Alarm Pro overview
If you buy the Ring Alarm Pro system, you’ll probably pay $300 to get a router/base device, four door/window sensors, a motion detector, a Z-Wave range extender and a keypad. You can opt for just the base station for $250 — but then you won’t get all the security sensors that make the system work. You can also buy a bigger package for $380 (it adds four more door/window sensors, an extra motion detector and another keypad), or you can buy the individual sensors a la carte, expanding the system beyond these basics to include a wide range of Ring cameras, video doorbells, backup power packs, Eero Wi-Fi range extenders and so on.
In general, the pricing for these devices is middling compared to the competition — not quite as affordable as Wyze’s super-cheap gadgets, but not as pricey as Abode’s more expensive ones. Door/window sensors, for instance, cost $20 each and motion detectors cost $30. Ring’s prices are close to those of SimpliSafe, one of the best DIY home security systems on the market, which clocks in at $15 and $30, respectively.
As with other systems, the Ring Alarm Pro will have better pricing if you buy one of the packages, then add whatever standalone devices you want on top rather than buying everything a la carte.
To give an example of one possible setup: I got the $300 Ring Alarm Pro package, along with a $100 Ring Stick Up Cam, a $130 Alarm Pro backup power pack, an $89 Eero 6 Wi-Fi range extender (on sale for $62 when I got it) and a $15 microSD card (though you can get one for free by redeeming a code after purchasing the system) for local storage. That brought me to a total bill of about $600.
A similarly scaled build from SimpliSafe might cost $400, but it’s important to understand the broader value Ring offers compared to its competitors. Remember, Ring’s $250 base station is also a router, meaning you’ll get a lot of extra functionality that you won’t get with SimpliSafe’s $115 base station. Likewise, you probably wouldn’t spend $130 on a backup power pack for other home security systems, and you wouldn’t for the Ring Alarm Pro if it didn’t enable backup Wi-Fi. Ditto for that Wi-Fi range extender and the microSD card, which don’t make sense for other systems because those systems don’t offer the same features.
Ring suggests keeping the keypad wired, though its battery should last for months.

Ringing the alarm, pro-style
Before I talk about Ring’s unique features, the first big question to answer is, “Is it a decent home security system?” The answer is a solid yes.
Ring’s devices did exactly what they were supposed to do in my testing. They were responsive and reliable, even in slightly odd conditions. For instance, my basement’s back door is far from the base station, but I experienced no connection issues with the Z-Wave-powered door/window sensor. In addition, some of my house’s doors have unique molding around the door jambs, which has given some door/window sensors problems in the past (e.g., registering doors as open when they’re not).
Ring’s entry sensors give a little more latitude than others, so the two pieces can be about an inch apart before registering a door “open.” I appreciated that calibration because it meant no false alarms, but it wouldn’t allow any doors to be cracked open without sending an alert.
The motion detector, power pack and keypad were similarly reliable, and the Ring Stick Up Cam, which we’ve reviewed separately, performed as expected.
Installation was mostly a breeze, but I had to check some online guides to activate some more advanced features, and performance was consistently great.
The Edge of tomorrow?
Besides the basics, the Ring Alarm Pro introduces a few great new features that many DIY home security systems don’t offer: built-in Wi-Fi 6, backup Wi-Fi in case of power outages, Alexa Guard Plus integration and the option for local storage and processing, a feature Ring calls Edge.
A bit of context: Eero was a pioneer of mesh networking and the first company to deliver mesh routers to the masses, popularizing the approach. Amazon scooped up the company in 2019 and quickly put out newer, more affordable Eero systems — followed by the Eero 6 and Eero Pro 6, which added support for Wi-Fi 6 in 2020.
According to Ring, “The built-in Eero Wi-Fi 6 router functions like a standalone Eero 6 router … The only difference is that Ring Alarm Pro does not support Zigbee or Thread at this time.”
I couldn’t run the Ring Alarm Pro through our usual battery of Wi-Fi tests, but I did perform some basic speed tests and monitor for consistency around my house. As you’d expect, the Eero router performed significantly better than the basic gateway installed by my provider, helping deliver high speeds as far as the back office in my basement (which, without a mesh system, chugs along like dial-up internet from the early aughts).
An Eero range extender will give you solid mesh Wi-Fi throughout even large houses.
Hobie Crase/CNET
In our review of the Eero 6 router, we were disappointed by faulty band-steering throughout our speed tests. Too often, the router would leave us on the slower 2.4GHz band when it should have connected us through the faster 5GHz band. I noticed a similar pattern when testing the connection speeds, though it never affected them enough to significantly affect performance with any of my usual internet-dependent activities.
Another cool feature the Ring Alarm Pro brings to the table is backup Wi-Fi. The idea is if there’s an interruption to your power or internet connection, Ring provides an internet connection to your Wi-Fi-enabled devices using cellular data. The monthly data limit for backup Wi-Fi is 3GB, so you won’t be able to use it constantly — though Ring does offer extra data at a rate of $3 per gigabyte.
The backup Wi-Fi worked quickly in my testing, with almost no latency. When I unplugged the Alarm Pro’s broadband and power cables to simulate an outage, backup Wi-Fi was up and running in under a minute, and speeds were solid, if a little slower. For instance, in the farthest back room in my basement, the download and upload speeds were 20.7 and 8.03 megabits per second, respectively, versus their typical 35 and 8.5Mbps in that same room. Translation: A brief outage probably won’t interrupt your work even in the remotest part of the house, using cellular data.
Yet another interesting addition to Ring’s new home security system is free integration with Alexa Guard Plus, a feature on Echo speakers and displays that monitors your home while you’re away for unusual sounds (like glass breaking, human footsteps and smoke and carbon monoxide alarms sounding). Alexa Guard Plus, which usually costs $5 per month, can also use deterrence measures, like playing the sound of a dog barking if connected devices detect motion outside.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, given Ring’s history with police partnerships, its Neighbors app and troubling privacy policies, the Alarm Pro offers local processing and video storage. This doesn’t solve all of Ring’s problems. After all, the company still enables the worst tendencies in both its customers and the police in their communities — encouraging a culture of posting footage of public spaces on the Neighbors app (often leading to toxic comments sections) and suspicion among neighbors. Now, with its optional end-to-end video encryption and Edge’s new local processing and storage, it also enables some of the best security and privacy practices possible with any major brand in the home security market, rivaling Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video service.
Setting up Edge took a bit of searching in device settings — and a small hiccup that required resetting my Ring Stick Up Cam. But all in all, it was simple enough to do, and within a few short minutes, I had a smart camera with local storage and processing, which was previously impossible with Ring devices.
I still have problems with Ring’s company policies, but those policies don’t impact the Ring Alarm Pro too much because the core system doesn’t depend on a camera. Moreover, if the Ring Alarm Pro indicates the direction Ring is moving regarding security and privacy, that’s worthy of encouragement.
The back of the Alarm Pro has a microSD card slot, an extra Ethernet port and a power slot that can connect to backup batteries.

Monitoring comes at a cost
A few hundred dollars for the Ring Alarm Pro is reasonable, but many of its smartest features require a higher-end subscription. Here’s how they break down:
Ring Protect Basic ($3 per month or $30 per year): Offers video recording for one camera.
Ring Protect Plus ($10 per month or $100 per year): Offers video recording for all video devices in the home.
Ring Protect Pro ($20 per month or $200 per year): Offers professional monitoring, Alexa Guard Plus (usually $5 per month), video recording for all video devices, backup internet and Eero Secure (which monitors your network for threats, and usually costs $30 annually).
If you plan to use the Ring Alarm Pro’s best features, it requires a Protect Pro subscription, which isn’t cheap. That said, $200 per year isn’t outrageous, while pricier than the most affordable DIY systems’ services (Wyze is only $100 per year). SimpliSafe’s professional monitoring costs $10 per month, and using its smart home integrations puts that fee up to $28 per month. Abode’s professional monitoring starts at $20 per month.
In short, Ring offers much more than the competition for a price in the same range.
Bottom line: Is this a new era?
In 2017, I wrote a column calling for smart home hubs — then popular devices in the smart home market — to be killed so that they could be reincarnated as something more: a device that folds together multiple vital components of a modern household. And what’s more vital than the internet?
By marrying the internet, home security and the smart home (particularly through Alexa and its Guard Plus feature), the Ring Alarm Pro offers one of the most compelling visions for the future of smart home integration I’ve seen yet.
It’s not a perfect system. Some of the best features aren’t clearly explained, meaning I had to dig through settings to get them working correctly. Likewise, a full setup required three different apps: Ring, Eero and Alexa apps. Since Amazon owns all three, you’d think a more unified experience might be possible.
That said, the setup across the three apps was one of the most painless examples of multi-app installations I’ve seen. What’s more, once the system is set up, you’ll rarely need to use the Alexa or Eero apps — and when you do, they’re simple enough to navigate.
In the grand scheme of the smart home, these criticisms are little more than quibbles. Ring has delivered a fantastic home security system with genuinely useful features to help with everything from internet and power outages to break-ins and intruder deterrence. You can even store and process video footage locally — a first for Ring.
Forget the privacy-degrading Ring drone camera and Amazon security robot Astro: the future of home security is the Ring Alarm Pro, and it’s here now.

Push to bundle with internet, TV services

Automations are fairly limited
2023
I never remember to set my alarm system before leaving my house. OK, maybe once or twice, I remembered, but it wasn’t without first telling my family to all get out of the house so I could close the front door, set the alarm, dash out the door and lock it, all while hoping that someone didn’t leave a window open somewhere. Comcast’s Xfinity Home put an end to all of that.
With Xfinity’s mobile app, I can see if a window or door is open, a light is on or a motion sensor is actively triggered. I can adjust my thermostat and check my cameras. Get notifications if there’s water in my basement. Quickly set up automation for all those devices (well, most of those devices) so that my lights turn on when I open the front door at night and the security system disarms before I walk down the stairs the next morning. And yes, I can use my phone to arm and disarm the system from my driveway, or anywhere else really.
The DIY home security market is loaded with options that can do similar things (and for security cameras alone, there are way cheaper options). The perk of going with Xfinity Home is that it’s all professionally installed and the individual pieces work well together. Bonus points: They can be controlled with a single app. If you’re in the market for a home security system that isn’t DIY, Comcast beats out all the competitors — from ADT to Vivint.

Bring me the bundles
When I first reviewed Xfinity Home in 2017, I was already an Xfinity Internet and TV customer and used SimpliSafe for my home security. However, following my review, I liked the combination of security and smart home features so much that I signed up for Xfinity Home. I did drop its internet and TV services, though. According to a Comcast representative, I’m apparently in a very small group of Xfinity Home subscribers who don’t bundle it with another of its services.
To give me the full Xfinity Home experience, the company temporarily installed in my home its latest X1 TV box and xFi gateway and xFi pods to create a whole-home mesh network. The installers also updated my touchscreen security panel — the Xfinity Home Station — to what customers would have in their homes today.
To reiterate, you do not need Xfinity TV or internet service to get Xfinity Home. However, because the xFi gateway and Home Station are designed to work together, there are benefits to bundling with Xfinity’s internet service. For example, the gateway’s security protection for your network extends to devices connected to it, including cameras. It also has the option to pause connections to devices on the network (I used this feature a bunch to limit screen time for my kids) that can be used to blackout your cameras should you want some privacy. Plus, if you change your Wi-Fi credentials, it will automatically update your Xfinity Home equipment as well.
I would argue that with any newer Wi-Fi router worth owning, you will get network security to protect your devices and the ability to block network access to specific devices. I certainly have those features on my personal router and have had no issues using it with Xfinity’s security equipment. That said, those already with Xfinity Internet or considering getting it can expect a seamless experience with Xfinity Home based on my use of the two together.
Of course, the more you bundle, the better your overall package price. An unexpected twist is the cost has improved since I initially signed up for it.
Xfinity’s little cameras have excellent image quality indoors and outside.

The basic service with professional monitoring is $30 a month. Adding 24/7 camera recording with storage for seven days and up to six cameras brings your monthly bill to $40. Combined with the top-tier TV service and Gigabit internet service, my bill as a new customer total would be $205. However, this will vary depending on the tiers of services you choose and how many of them you’re bundling together. The same goes for installation fees, which are $100 in my area if I install multiple Xfinity services or $60 just Home alone. You’ll need to check your area to see what services are available.
More importantly, Comcast has done away with a service contract requirement for Xfinity Home. You will still need to buy the equipment you can either purchase outright or in 24 monthly payments (more on that below). A majority of customers opt for the payment plan option, an Xfinity spokeswoman said. If you buy your equipment, you can end service whenever you want.

For new users, Xfinity offers three basic equipment packages to get you started. If you want extras of anything, you can tack them onto your bill. You can call Xfinity to discuss what you might need if you’re unsure what you need for your home.

The prices for à la carte equipment are fairly reasonable, and Xfinity doesn’t hide its pricing, as shown in the screenshot above. A window or door sensor will run you $20 from Xfinity, while a similar sensor from competitor Vivint costs $50. Xfinity’s indoor/outdoor camera is $120, while Vivint’s is $400 for outside and $200 for inside. A similar camera from ADT is $290.
Speaking of cameras, Xfinity has made it more affordable to add them to your system. There used to be a per-camera per-month charge. Now, it’s just $120 each for the cameras, and if you want 24/7 recordings for up to seven days, it’s just a flat $10 extra per month for up to six cameras. You can also skip the recordings and simply use the cameras to receive activity notifications.
If you’re interested in nothing but cameras, Xfinity offers one more service option for xFi internet subscribers. The Xfinity Home Self Protection plan lets you add up to six cameras to your home (for $120 each) with 24/7 video recording for $10 a month.
Get smart(er)
Once you settle on the security equipment, you can build out your package with Xfinity’s Zen thermostat and outlet controller that can turn lights or small appliances on and off. I really like the look of the Zen thermostat, it works well and it’s easy to use. (Oddly, the only people I’ve had in my house who haven’t been able to use it are HVAC repairmen.) The outlet controllers are nothing special but are a nice addition if you want to, say, trigger a lamp to turn on when a door opens.
You can add Comcast’s Zen thermostat to your Home setup.

You can also integrate a large and growing list of third-party devices into your Xfinity Home system. The list includes smart light bulbs from Lifx, Philips and Sengled, Chamberlain MyQ garage openers, August, Yale and Kwikset locks and even Tile trackers. Product support does change, however, so you may want to check the list before you set up an install.
Put it all together
Xfinity Home Station
Josh Goldman/CNET
At the heart of the system at home is the Xfinity Home Station. Designed by Comcast, it has a better display and processing power than its predecessor for smoother, more responsive performance. As I popped through menus and settings, I noticed considerably less lag than the one I had used. Picture quality from the cameras is also improved, making it easier to keep an eye on things without looking at my phone. The Home Station has a 4G cellular radio and a backup battery, just in case my power and internet go down. It also acts as a Zigbee repeater to help keep smart home devices connected in larger homes.
One of the benefits of bundling with TV or internet is that you can use the voice remote for its X1 box or Flex streaming box with Xfinity Home. There’s a whole list of voice commands to control your smart home, view your camera feeds and find your keys or other stuff if you have a Tile tracker. It is particularly handy for turning off lights or adjusting your room temperature without getting off the couch or opening the app. Like the xFi integration, it’s nice if you have Xfinity TV or are considering it along with Xfinity Home, but not a necessity.
Setting up automations is a snap with this app.
Josh Goldman/CNET
Honestly, you’ll probably spend most of your time controlling your system with the mobile app. As I said at the top, you can do everything from arming your alarm to checking your cameras and recordings to setting up automations. The app is a breeze to use. Want a lamp to turn on when your motion sensor is tripped and then turn itself off five minutes later? How about getting a push notification when a door or window opens? You can set up each of those in under a minute with a few taps.
That’s not to say things couldn’t be better. While it’s easy to set up new rules, there aren’t a lot of recipes to choose from. For instance, the only thermostat-related one is for getting a notification if it gets too hot or cold in your home. It can’t, for example, adjust temperatures based on motion detection. There are no camera recipes, so you can’t do something like have lights come on if your front porch camera picks up activity.
The dearth of recipes is a shortcoming but hardly a deal breaker. Cost is likely going to be the biggest deterrent for most people. Doing away with contracts helps and so does the flexibility to pay for the equipment upfront or in installments. Plus, $60 for the professional installation is money well spent considering all that. If you’re looking to outfit an apartment or townhouse and aren’t planning to bundle Home with other Xfinity services, you might be better off with a DIY kit. Otherwise, Xfinity Home is a simple way to combine smart home tech and security.

Wireless burglar alarm for home and garden
0428
A wireless burglar alarm is a set of radio channel devices that communicate by transmitting radio signals with a security, or as it is commonly called, control panel. When installing and connecting security detectors, wires are not used. The technology has absorbed all the best from traditional analogues and is developing in parallel with wired systems. From the category of curiosity, it has long migrated to the category of affordable household appliances.
GSM wireless burglar alarm is a well-established set of components that includes:
Detectors, they are security sensors. React to various manifestations of unauthorized intrusion. These are motion sensors, opening windows and doors.
Control panel. The most important element that receives information from the detectors and transmits an alarm signal to the central monitoring station “KRON”.
Siren. Its task is to make a loud and piercing sound that will inform the scammers about their disclosure. Calculation on the psychological effect – amateurs will be afraid of the siren and leave the premises without reaching the valuable property.
As soon as the equipment detects intruders, the alarm system sends a message to the security console and informs the owners about the intrusion. Responsible law enforcement agencies arrive at the facility in 5-8 minutes and neutralize the thieves.

What need to know about GSM module
The installed security system transmits data on the status of the detectors to the central monitoring station via GSM communication. This module implements the function of dialing from the installed SIM card in the control panel to the monitoring station. You do not have to pay for communication, all costs for communication services are borne by the console security operator.
At the output of the control panel there are special relays that allow switching between alternating and direct current. Relay outputs make it possible to connect various equipment to equipment: automatic fire extinguishing devices, water shut-off valves.
Wireless alarm system will become a reliable barrier on the way of intruders to your house, apartment or office:
battery backup allows the equipment to keep working when the building is out of power;
the number of security system links can be easily increased by integrating new sensors;
the mechanism of interaction of elements is radio communication (data are transmitted on the most common frequency of the radio channel 433 MHz).
Alarm system for cottages: wired or not?
Wired security kits are recommended for homes that do not have year-round heating. In other cases, professionals recommend installing security systems with wireless radio channel detectors.
The installation of wireless security systems allows you not to violate the integrity of the interior and does not require laying cables and cutting walls, which will allow you to install it in 2-3 hours, unlike wired systems, where it takes much more time to install.
When it comes to maintaining the integrity of the interior, wireless kits are the only solution.
Wireless alarm system has many advantages, which are constantly reminded by experts in the installation of security systems:
Efficiency of installation (from 1 to 3 hours). In the case of purchasing a wired security system, the final cost of work increases by the amount of wages of installers.
Possibility of reinstallation on another site. Portability is a definite plus.
Clean and strong design. Due to its compactness and the absence of cables, the wireless alarm system is hidden from view.
Versatile mounting options. It is allowed to use the system to protect two buildings. It is enough to purchase smoke detectors, and a wireless fire alarm system will appear at the facility.
By supplementing the system with cameras and an intercom, you will protect your home from scammers as much as possible. There is no need to drill walls and think about how to arrange cables and wires. Each element of the installation is maintainable, and in case of failure can be easily replaced.
However, there is a price to pay for the absence of wires: wireless security systems are more expensive than wired ones. Silencing an alarm from a wireless sensor is fairly easy. When sending a signal, the detectors do not receive a response, which frees the hands of attackers. Accumulators need constant recharging, and batteries need to be replaced.
Wireless apartment alarm: what to look for?
When considering security equipment, there are certain characteristics that you should pay special attention to. These include:
Operating temperature range. The lower temperature limit can be from 0 to -40 degrees. This is especially important if the object of consideration is an alarm for a summer house or any other unheated room;
Presence of surveillance cameras, microphones (plus availability of additional sensors from the manufacturer).
Maximum possible number of connectable sensors.
Availability of additional functions (wireless security systems can act as a “smart home”).
Wireless protocol. It largely affects the reliability of technology. The more reliable the protocol, the harder it is to jam the signal.
High-quality and accurate assembly indicates that the equipment was produced at the factory, and not “handicraft”. Even better, if the wireless alarm for the apartment is the brainchild of a well-known brand.

One of many sequels to the legendary “Pac-Man”, Jr. Pac-Man features the character of Pac-Man’s son. For the first time in the series’ history, side-scrolling mazes were introduced, with each maze being two screens wide.
This time, the mazes have no exit tunnels through which players can make an escape. The bonus items that appear move around the maze and are now something of a mixed blessing, as not only will they destroy any Power Pills they come across, but they will also turn any normal dots they pass over into large dots that slow the player’s movements considerably, but are worth more points than normal dots if eaten by the player. Any mutated dots in the maze will disappear if the player loses a life.
The Pac-Man character is once again pursued by four ghosts (Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Tim) in his quest to eat all of the dots in each maze. And as before, numerous Power Pills litter the mazes that, when eaten, allow Jr. to eat the pursuing ghosts.
As with previous “Pac-Man” games, intermissions are featured between certain levels. Jr. Pac-Man’s intermissions are episodic in nature, like those found in Ms. Pac-Man. Jr. Pac-Man’s story tells of the blossoming love between a Pac-Man and a small ghost named Yum-Yum.
Act I – Jr. Meets Yum-Yum : Jr. Pac-Man steps outside his home to play. He spots Yum-Yum beyond the fence in his yard and goes outside to meet her. Blinky, hiding in the shadows, comes out from hiding to catch Jr. However Ms. Pac-Man, keeping a watchful eye over her child, sees the commotion from her window and runs out to the yard to eat a Power Pill and chase both ghosts away while Jr. returns to the safety of home. This intermission is played after Round 1.
Act II – The Gift : It seems that Jr. can’t get the enchanting young ghost out of his mind, so he proceeds to bring a balloon to her as a gift the next day. Excited to see her, he meets her on a bridge and hands her the balloon, when we catch a glimpse of Blinky lurking behind a bush. This intermission is played after Round 3.
Act III – They Escape : Blinky moves from one bush to the another, startling Yum-Yum into releasing the balloon. Blinky attempts to capture Jr. once and for all, but once again, Ms. Pac-Man comes to the rescue. Blinky chases her off to the left, while Jr. Pac-Man and Yum-Yum escape to the right. Once alone, they gaze in to each other’s eyes and fall in love, with hearts appearing all around them. This intermission is played after Rounds 5, 7, and 9.

Manufacturer:Bally Midway Year: 1983
The second sequel to the phenomenally successful Pacman was released in 1983 by Midway. I personally never saw an actual arcade version of this game, but was introduced to it when it was first added to MAME. In this game you control Jr Pacman, the son of Pacman and Ms Pacman, dropped off at the Pac household by special stork delivery. Jr Pacman is distinguihed from his parents plain head and bow, by the hat stuck on his head which has a windmill attached.
This rehash of the old favourite saw a couple of new twists in the game design; gone were the tunnels from the previous two incarnations. This time you were faced with a playfield which was larger than could be displayed on screen. The screen scrolls as you move around the maze to reveal the new area. The playfield size is around three times the screen’s width, and fixed height.
As in Pacman and Ms Pacman your adversaries are the same four ghosts but also this time the bonus items also pose a threat. They move around the maze the same as in Ms Pacman, but this time they also mutate the dots they move over, causing you to move slower when clearing them. Also if a bonus item reaches a powerpill it will explode, causing you to be unable to use the powerpill on that maze.
The level is cleared when all the dots are eaten, and every screen has a different maze to negotiate. The ghosts get progressively faster with each new screen, increasing the challenge for Jr Pacman who does not. Once you reach the beer(!) level, all following screens are beer levels.
Difficulty can be set to normal or hard (default is normal). The number of starting lives can be set from 1 to 5 (default is 3). Extra life can be set to 10,000, 20,000 or 30,000 points (default is 10,000).
Playing hints/tips
On the first couple of screens, don’t worry abou the bonus items moving over dots, as long as get them before they destroy powerpills. The mutated dots are worth 5 times the points as normal ones, and you can still just about outrun the ghosts on them.
The bonus items have a set pattern for the powerpills they head towards, depending on which ones are still available. Learn the patterns and pick them off before they destroy the powerpills.
Later levels have a lot of dead ends for you to worry about. Use the powerpills to move the ghosts away from you, and while the power is active, clear a dead end area before the ghosts return.
Try to group the ghosts together when you are near a powerpill, as you get 3,000 for getting all four ghosts.
On the cat and beer levels concentrate on the bonus items, as they are worth far more points than anything else.

Junior Pac-Man
Junior Pac-Man is an arcade video game published and developed by Bally Midway in 1983 and along with Professor Pac-Man , Ms. Pac-Man and Pac-Man Plus led to the termination of the agreement between Namco and Bally Midway in 1984.
game system
Game System Jr. Pac-Man is very similar to its predecessors: the player controls the eponymous character Jr. Pac-Man (who wears a busy propeller cap) and scores points by eating all of Pac’s maze erasers, while the four ghosts chase him through the maze and try to kill him. The player can eat a bag of Super Gum for Blue Ghosts, which will make them vulnerable for a short period of time and allow the player to eat them for extra points. Once the maze is cleared, a new maze will be introduced and the game system will continue.
This game contains some of the most important differences between the Pac-Man formula, both in terms of looks and gameplay. The mazes are now twice as wide as the screen, and the virtual camera scrolls the mazes from left to right. There are seven mazes in total, and five of them have six Super Pack Erasers instead of four, but none of them have tunnels that travel from one side of the screen to the other. As in previous games, bonus items (such as tricycles, kites, and hot air balloons) appear above the ghost regenerator and bounce around the maze like in Ms. Pac-Man .
The cutscenes of the game tell about the relationship that develops between Pac-Man Jr. and a small red female ghost named Yum-Yum (who is apparently Blinky’s daughter).
Ports
Due to the game’s somewhat limited popularity, the only port released was the Atari 2600; This version has different mazes that scroll vertically instead of horizontally, but otherwise it’s a faithful adaptation. Porting of Atari 5200 and Atari 8-bit was completed at 1984, but was canceled from Super Pac-Man, when the video game division of Atari, Inc. was sold to Jack Tramiel. The game was later ported to some of the company’s laptops such as the Commodore 64 and PC.
The discovery of an unreleased prototype for the Atari 7800 was the subject of April Fool’s Day on the AtariAge forums in 2009. The joke was revealed as a cover for a homebrew version of the game that was published in a cartridge.

What is the Difference Between Washer & Dryer All in One Combo and Washer & Dryer Sets?
When shopping for appliances, it can be difficult to find what works best for your home. This is often true with washers and dryers. The following information is designed to help you choose between a washer/dryer combo and a washer/dryer set. First, it is important to distinguish between the two. A washer/dryer combo is an all-in-one unit that both washes and dries your clothes, while a washer/dryer set is two separate units, one for washing and one for drying. There are benefits and disadvantages to both setups. Determining which is better for you depends on a variety of factors including how much space you have and the amount of laundry you do.
Washer/Dryer Combo
The all-in-one unit is a great choice for people with limited space. Improvements in technology continue to make these units more efficient and they are easy to install and operate.
PROS
• Combo units let you place dirty clothes in the unit and remove clothe that are both clean and dry; no moving wet clothes from the washer to the dryer. • The compact build of all-in-one units make them ideal for small spaces. • Washer/dryer combos utilize a ventless drying system, so they do not need a vent to the outside and can be installed just about anywhere. • You can still wash or dry separately.
CONS
• The dryer component can only handle about half of the capacity of the wash cycle. • The washer/dryer combo takes longer to complete a load of laundry, usually 3 to 6 hours. • All-in-one units have a smaller capacity than separate washer/dryer units. • Combo units are only available as an electric unit.
Shop Washer Dryer Combos
Washer/Dryer Sets
Separate washer/dryer sets, also referred to as a laundry pair, work well for people who do a lot of laundry; the two-unit setup is designed to efficiently handle large amounts of dirty clothes.
PROS
• Move through multiple loads of laundry quickly by using both the washer and dryer at once. • The dryer dries clothes more quickly than the combo unit. • Washer/dryer sets can handle large loads of laundry. • You can replace them separately if necessary.
CONS
• Washer/dryer sets take up more space in your home because there are two units. • Traditional dryers must have a vent to the outside. • Laundry needs to be moved to the dryer after the wash cycle has finished.
Shop Washer Dryer Sets
Choosing Your Washer/Dryer
As you can see, both washer/dryer combos and sets have pros and cons. All-in-one units are ideal for people with limited space who do not need to wash large amounts of laundry. They are a great choice for apartments, vacation homes, RVs, or even boats. Washer/dryer sets work better for people who do a lot of laundry and want to get through it quickly. They have a larger capacity and dry clothes more quickly than combo units. Both styles work well and provide clean, dry clothes. Your specific needs and situation will help you determine which option is best for you.

Tumble dryer or washer dryer, which is better?
In our country, the dryer is a relatively new and little-known appliance, while the washer-dryer is more familiar and well-known.
Therefore, in this article we propose to learn more about clothes dryers, consider their advantages and disadvantages, and determine in which cases which machine is better to use.
What is a clothes dryer?
Tumble dryers and washer dryers are very similar in appearance and control to standard washing machines. Their main difference is the heating element (TEN), which is needed to heat the air that is pumped into the tank of the machine through a special air duct. The principle of drying is that hot air, passing through damp laundry, absorbs moisture, which subsequently condenses in a reservoir designed for this purpose. As a result, laundry loses up to 90% of moisture.
Drying implementation in dryers and washer-dryers
In most washer-dryers, the drying function is still an additional function, since the main focus is still on the quality of the wash. Therefore, drying in many models is implemented as a timer. That is, the user is required to set only the drying duration without the possibility to specify additional parameters, which may affect the quality of drying. Later models of washer-dryers are able to determine the degree of residual moisture and, according to this criterion, drying will be performed better. This method could be implemented due to the placement of a thermometer sensor in the lower part of the moisture condenser. This system for determining the moisture content of things is called Fuzzy Logic. Drying is only stopped when the set moisture content of the items matches the actual moisture content. In machines of this type, there are several degrees of drying according to humidity. For example, “very dry”, “under the iron”, “in the closet”. In order to avoid rapid wear of things, it is better to leave the laundry slightly damp after washing: overdried fabric fibers become brittle.
In tumble dryers, however, laundry can be dried in two ways: ventilation and condensate drying. Fan-type dryers blow warm air onto clothes. In this process, moisture exits the machine through the air stream. To do this, the hose is connected to the ventilation system. Condensing type dryer does not require connection to external utilities. Moisture does not go outside, but accumulates in a special reservoir, which is located instead of the detergent reservoir in the washer-dryer. After drying, this tank must be emptied of water.
Advantages and disadvantages of a dryer
Although many consider a separate dryer to be an unnecessary appliance in the house, since today there are many machines with a drying function (washer-dryers).
However, there are some nuances here:
1) A washer-dryer will not be able to dry as much laundry at a time as a stand-alone dryer. Since wet laundry expands significantly, you will need to remove half of the washed laundry for maximum drying efficiency.
2)The tumble dryer has additional useful features. For example, you can choose drying according to the type of fabric, set the function of airing the laundry, or set the “With ironing” mode. A variety of functions may differ in different models of dryers.
3) Condenser type dryers do not require additional connection to external utilities such as water and sewerage.
The only drawback of this unit is its size. As a rule, the dryer has the same dimensions as a conventional washing machine and manufacturers recommend installing it next to the washing machine. This can be a problem for installation in a small apartment. However, in this case, there is a solution: some manufacturers have compact models with a height of 70cm and a depth of up to 45cm, which is approximately equal to the size of a vertical washing machine. You can consider the layout of the dryer in a small area of \u200b\u200bthe room.

Advantages and disadvantages of the washing machine with dryer function
The undoubted advantage of this unit is saving space and saving money: one appliance instead of two (free standing washer and dryer). For some users, ease of use is also a plus, because not everyone needs additional settings when choosing a dryer. As for durability, it should be noted that there is an opinion that washer-dryers are less reliable than conventional units. This opinion is not entirely true and is due only to improper operation of the machine. The main reason for the failure of such a unit, according to experts, is drying overload – the owners forget that all the washed clothes cannot be dried at one time. Therefore, this is not entirely a disadvantage. If you follow the rules of operation, then any equipment will serve you for a long time and faithfully.

Dehumidifier selection options
Let’s look at when we should choose a washer dryer for the home.
Small apartment For small apartments, where the bathroom is only 5 sq.m., and the kitchen is 6 sq.m., washer-dryers are most often chosen. There is simply no place to implement the installation of a drying machine, and even taking into account all the nuances of its installation (the presence of a water and sewer connection, installation next to a washing machine).
Small family Since the family is small, there won’t be a lot of laundry to pile up, and drying clothes in the washing machine will not be difficult. Indeed, otherwise, if there are a lot of washed things, then when they are dried in a washing machine, things will have to be divided according to the weight allowed for drying.
No time to transfer laundry from the washer to the dryer When using a tumble dryer, each batch of laundry must be transferred to the dryer drum. A washing machine with a dryer function will save you from this. The set program will ensure timely drying of the laundry.
You are satisfied with the washer-dryer If you do not often use the drying mode, and the possible weight of the laundry for drying is normal for you, then you can not think about buying a dryer.
Now consider when the tumble dryer is indispensable.
Big family, but nowhere to hang washed things In this case, you can’t do without a dryer. If you buy a dryer with a large drum volume, then for a one-time load you can dry a fairly large amount of laundry, which does not allow you to make a washing machine with the “drying” function.
If you need to reduce the time spent washing and drying clothes If you need to dry previously washed clothes at the same time as the next load is washed. In this case, the washing-drying process can be continuous.
Your apartment allows you to additionally install a dryer If the area of the apartment allows you to place a dryer, then its functionality, drying quality and energy efficiency will definitely please you.

Best external hard drives for Mac 2023
Best Picks
No matter your budget or use, we’ve got the right drive for your Mac.
By Cliff Joseph
Macworld MAY 9, 2023 4:16 am PDT
It’s never been easy to upgrade the storage in Macs, so it’s always a good idea to buy an external drive to provide extra storage for all your work files, photos, videos, and games. And, of course, you should always have an external drive available for making Time Machine backups in case anything ever goes wrong.
Modern solid-state drives (SSD) are the best option as they’re really fast, reliable, and compact. However, SSDs are still relatively expensive, with 1TB drives costing around $100/£150, whereas that same amount of money can get you a 4TB basic desktop hard drive with a USB interface (drives with high-speed Thunderbolt ports tend to be more expensive) Hard drives are slower than SSDs, but if you need lots of storage for your important files and back-ups then a good old-fashioned hard drive is still the most affordable option. (If it’s an SSD you are after, read Best external SSD for Mac.)
There are plenty of choices, too, with compact, portable hard drives designed for use with laptops, and desktop drives with very larger capacities if you really need a lot of storage. Some hard drives also provide additional features, such as built-in docks with lots of Thunderbolt and USB ports, or perhaps allowing you to open up the casing of the drive and insert a new drive for an instant upgrade.
Below we rank the best hard drives we have reviewed recently, plus you’ll find general buying advice that explains what you should be looking for.
Update 05/09/2023: We’ve added the new Seagate Ultra Touch 2023, which is our new pick as the best overall drive.
1. Seagate Ultra Touch 2023: Best overall drive
Pros
Competitive price
2TB, 4TB or 5TB storage
Password protection and encryption
Cons
Average performance
Larger and heavier than original model
The original Seagate Ultra Touch was a pocket-size hard drive with an attractively slim and lightweight design. It was a fairly old design though, limited to either 1TB or 2TB of storage, and it was still using an old USB 3.0 interface that required an adaptor in order to work with more modern Macs and PCs with USB-C.
This updated version of the Ultra Touch updates most aspects of the drive’s design. It’s slightly larger and heavier, but now starts with a minimum of 2TB storage, with 4TB or 5TB models also available if you need additional storage. This new model now has a USB-C interface too, with a lengthy (50cm) USB-C cable included as well.
The 2TB model – which is finished in cloud white – is still fairly slim, measuring just 13.2mm thick, 80mm wide and 115mm long, and weighing a modest 168g, so it’s a good option if you just need a lightweight, portable drive that you can slip into your pocket or a bag. The 4TB and 5TB models are finished in a darker pebble grey and are slightly larger and heavier, measuring 23mm thick and weighing 267g.
You can’t buy the Ultra Touch directly from Seagate, so you’ll have to shop around online, and prices do seem to vary quite a lot. The average prices that we came across during testing were around $79.99/£99.99 for the 2TB model that we tested, while the 4TB and 5TB models are around $124.99/£139.99 and $207.99/£164.99 respectively.
Performance is similar to that of the original Ultra Touch, at 130MB/s for both read and write speeds, which is around average for a portable drive such as this. The Ultra Touch includes some additional features too, such as the ability to create mirror folders on your Mac and the Ultra Touch drive that are automatically synced and updated whenever you make any changes to those folders. The Toolkit app also provides 256-bit encryption and password protection for extra security, making the Ultra Touch a good option for people who need to keep important files secure when they’re working away from the office. Customers in the US can also use Seagate’s Data Recovery service to rescue files in the event that the drive is damaged (although this service isn’t available in all regions). –Cliff Joseph
2. LaCie Mobile Drive 2022: Best value
Pros
Competitive price
LaCie’s ToolKit app
Cons
Not the fastest hard drive available
LaCie’s Mobile Drive was already on our list of the best hard drives for Mac users, and it has just recently released a new version of the drive for 2022. The previous version is still available from a few online stores, but you can recognize it by its sharp, angular design. In contrast, the new 2022 Mobile Drive adopts Apple’s current design fetish, with a slimline, rectangular design that has smooth rounded corners. The LaCie logo is right in the center, rather than off on one side as was previously the case.
Prices start at a competitive £79.99 for a drive with 1TB storage, but there are also models with 2TB, 4TB, and 5TB available too. The 1TB and 2TB models measure just 10.4mm thick, 85mm wide, and 118mm long, and weigh 200g, so they’re easy to pick up and carry around with your laptop. The 4TB and 5TB models are a little thicker – at 20.4mm – and weigh 300g, but that’s still a good size for portable hard drives that provide such high capacity. They’re all constructed out of recycled aluminum, and sturdy enough to cope with life on the road.
You can use them for your Time Machine backups, but LaCie’s ToolKit app – for macOS 10.14 or later – also allows you to create a Mirror folder that is automatically updated whenever you make any changes to the files or data within that folder.
The drive has a USB-C interface, with a USB-C cable included in the box, and recorded write and read speeds of 126MB/s and 130MB/s respectively when running the BlackMagic Disk Speed Test. There are faster hard drives available, but that’s still a respectable speed for a compact hard drive such as this, and the Mobile Drive 2022 remains a good, affordable backup drive for MacBook owners – and even owners of desktop Macs who may need the larger 4TB or 5TB models. —Cliff Joseph
3. Seagate Firecuda Special Edition: Best for Star Wars fans
Pros
It’s Baby Yoda!
ToolKit app
Cons
USB-C adapter not included
Formatted for Windows PCs, so you’ll need to reformat it using Disk Utility
Seagate has updated its range of Firecuda drives with a number of special edition models that have designs taken from Marvel and Star Wars films. There are drives with Spiderman, Boba Fett and the Mandolorian, but our favorite is the ‘small and powerful’ Baby Yoda drive (yes, we know his name is Grogu, but he’ll always be Baby Yoda to us). And, when attached to your Mac, the drive is even displayed on your desktop with a Baby Yoda icon as well.
These special edition drives are only available with 2TB storage, and they’re all priced at £114. 95/$139.99 on Seagate’s website. That’s a little pricey for a 2TB drive, so you’re paying a bit extra for the Star Wars vibe, but we have seen them at lower prices elsewhere online, and there are other models in the Firecuda range that provide different capacities too.
It’s a little larger than some portable drives, measuring 14.5mm thick, 80mm wide, and 122mm long. It’s sturdily built, though, and only weighs 167g, so it’s still light enough to just pick it up and slip it onto a bag with your laptop when you’re traveling. The only minor oddity with the design is that it uses a USB 3.2 interface with a USB-A cable – to provide compatibility with Xbox consoles, apparently – so you’ll need a USB-C adaptor if your Mac only has USB-C.
The Firecuda drive is formatted in the ExFat format for Windows PCs, but you can reformat it for Macs using Disk Utility, and Seagate’s ToolKit app will run on any Mac with macOS 10.14 or later. The drive will work with Time Machine on your Mac, but the ToolKit app also allows you to create a special Mirror folder on your Mac that is always kept in sync with a matching Mirror folder on the Firecuda drive. The app even lets you customize the colored lighting effects for the status light on the front of the drive too.
Seagate doesn’t quote a speed for the drive, but we recorded read and write speeds of 130MB/s in our tests. Professional users might prefer a faster hard drive or SSD, but that’s a respectable speed for a portable hard drive such as this, and the Firecuda is a really good – not to mention seriously cute – option for day-to-day backups on your Mac. –Cliff Joseph
4. G-Drive ArmorATD: Best rugged portable drive
Pros
Cheap for the capacity
Attractive design
USB Type-C
Cons
Formatted to exFAT so you’ll need to reformat it in Disk Utility
The ArmorATD is an enclosure with a 2.5-inch hard drive inside that’s shock-mounted, and the rugged aluminum case is surrounded by a silicon sock for extra protection. It will withstand minor abuse, more when off than on and the disks are spinning, but your best bet with any hard drive is not to treat it like a hockey puck. The connection is USB-C with a speed rating of 5Gbps (USB 3.1/Gen 1)–plenty fast enough for any hard drive. The drive warranty is for three years.
You’ll get around 120MBps writing and 127MBps reading maximum (with large files) from the ArmorATD on your Mac. Good stuff. The Armor ATD arrives formatted to exFAT so you’re good to go out of the box under both Windows and macOS. However, exFAT will extract a 5 percent max penalty, so Mac users will want to reformat the drive. –Jon L. Jacobi

G-Drive ArmorATD review
5. WD Black P10: Best for gamers
Pros
Competitively priced
Cons
USB 3.2 with USB-A cable – USB-C adapter not included
The WD Black P10 provides a more portable alternative to the WD Black D10, which is geared for desktop use. It’s not as fast as the D10, but it can draw power from a USB port, so you can simply plug it into any Mac, PC, or games console when you need to back up your files. It’s relatively large for a portable drive, measuring a chunky 20mm thick, 88mm wide, and 118mm long, but its reinforced casing is sturdy enough to cope with being bumped around in a backpack when you’re traveling.
The drive is rated at a relatively modest 140MB/s for both read and write performance, although our tests actually recorded speeds of 120MB/s and 110MB/s for read and write performance respectively. That’s not going to break any records, but it’s fine for the occasional Time Machine backup or for storing lots of games, photos, videos, and other multimedia files. The P10 is also competitively priced, starting at just $89.99/£80.99 for a healthy 2TB of storage. There are 4TB and 5TB models available too, so the P10 is a good option for Mac users who have really large collections of photos and videos that they can’t fit onto their Mac’s internal drive.
The only oddity is that the P10 uses an aging USB 3.2 interface. There’s a USB cable included, but it has a USB-A connector, so you’ll need to provide an adaptor for Macs that only have USB-C. —Cliff Joseph
6. WD My Passport: Best budget drive
Pros
Larger capacity models are nicely compact
Cons
USB-C adapter required (unless you by the My Passport For Mac edition, which costs more)
Western Digital’s My Passport drive provides plenty of portable storage at a competitive price. The My Passport starts at just $79.99/£49.99 for 1TB storage, going up to $189/£119.99 for 5TB, so it’s a really affordable backup option if you’re on a tight budget.
The physical size of the drive depends on the amount of storage you choose. The 4TB drive we tested measured a chunky 4.2×3.0×0.8 inches (107x76x19 millimeters) but the 1TB and 2TB models are just 0. 43 inches) (11mm) thick. The 4TB drive is still small enough to slip into a jacket pocket with no trouble at all. It’s very solidly built too, so we’d be happy to use it in outdoor locations with our MacBook.
However, the drive is showing its age a little, using ye olde USB 3.0 interface, so you’ll need an adaptor if your Mac only has USB-C. Its read and write speeds of 108MBps and 100MBps respectively aren’t going to win any awards either, but the My Passport will still be fine for the occasional Time Machine backup when you’re on the move with your laptop.
There’s also a model called My Passport For Mac that includes extra cables for both USB 3.0 and USB-C, and is pre-formatted in Apple’s HFS+ format, but that’s slightly more expensive so it’s not essential unless you’ve got a bit of extra cash to spare. –Cliff Joseph
7. LaCie 1big Dock: Best for pro and creative users
Pros
Multiple ports including a second Thunderbolt port, DisplayPort 1. 4 interface and memory card slots
Cons
Smallest capacity of 4TB
As the name suggests, LaCie’s 1big Dock is more than just a straightforward hard drive. It starts at $369/£349.99 for a drive with 4TB storage, going up to $889/£869.99 for 18TB, and its 7,200rpm IronWolf Pro hard drive provides strong performance with read and write speeds of 235MBps via its Thunderbolt 3 port. That makes it a good option for anyone that needs a fast drive for large video, photos, and audio files.
The primary Thunderbolt port also provides power for charging a MacBook laptop as well. You even have the option of popping open the front panel to swap out the standard hard drive and insert a new drive to provide an instant upgrade.
But the thing that really makes the 1big Dock stand out from most of its hard drive rivals is its built-in hub and connectivity features. There’s a second Thunderbolt port that will allow you to connect additional Thunderbolt and USB-C devices, and a DisplayPort 1. 4 interface for an external monitor.
The front of the drive also provides a standard USB 3.0 port and slots for both SD and CompactFlash (CF) memory cards, making it a great option for creative users who need to import files from cameras and other devices.
There’s also a version of the 1big Dock available that uses faster solid-state storage too–of course, it’s quite a bit more expensive. –Cliff Joseph
8. WD Black D10: Best budget performer
Pros
Competitive price
Fast
Cons
8TB model only
Requires USB-C adapter
Requires external power supply
Western Digital’s WD Black drives are primarily aimed at gamers who want a fast drive to boost loading times for their games, which explains why the menacing black design of this D10 desktop drive looks like a piece of heavyweight munitions from the Call Of Duty games. But a fast drive will also appeal to anyone that has a lot of photos, videos, and audio files that they want to store on their Mac, and the D10 has other features that can come in handy too.
Some aspects of the design are a little odd. There’s only one version available, with 8TB storage, although its $240/£199.99 price tag on Amazon is still competitive for a fast drive such as this. It’s equipped with only an old USB A interface (even though it is USB 3.2) perhaps to provide compatibility with older games consoles, so you’ll need an adapter if your Mac only has USB-C.
Its 7,200-rpm drive provides very good performance, reaching read and write speeds of 245MBps and 240MBps, respectively. The D10 requires an external power supply, so it’s very much designed for desktop use, but it also has two additional USB 3.2 ports on the back of the drive that can provide power to other devices, such as an iPhone or iPad. These ports are only for charging, though, so you can’t use the D10 as a dock for connecting peripherals such as a printer or memory stick. –Cliff Joseph
We’ve rounded up the best Mac hard drives above, but before making a buying decision you need to think about how you’ll be using the device. To find the best hard drive for your needs, you need to answer a few questions.
How much storage do I need?
Hard drive storage is relatively cheap. Unless you are really out to save your pennies, the smallest size of hard drive we’d recommend is 1TB.
Upgrades to 2TB, 3TB, and even 4TB are also cost-effective–the price per megabyte goes down the higher the capacity, so making the bump up to the next model is a good idea. Each terabyte can store around 11,000 music albums at 192kbps quality, but such storage doesn’t seem so grand when you start archiving 4K video.
Portable or desktop?
If you think you’ll be happy with a 1TB to 4TB hard drive, you can buy a portable drive. These use small 2.5-inch disks, and they fit happily into a coat pocket. Portable drives are usually bus-powered, too. This means you just need to plug them into your desktop or laptop, no separate power supply is required. There’s just one cable, and the drive will barely take up any space.
If only an ultra-high capacity hard drive will do, consider a desktop unit. These use larger 3.5-inch drives and tend to cover capacities from 4TB to 18TB. They’ll need to be plugged in for power; that’s fine if it stay home all of the time, or moves from office to office.
Rugged drives for travel
Some portable drives offer ruggedization. Shock protection is the most important kind for a hard drive, as unlike an SSD they have moving parts that can be permanently damaged following a drop. Rugged drives usually have some form of rubber coating that soaks up impact forces, and a toughened enclosure that won’t dent, crack or collapse under any normal amount of pressure.
A few also have water resistance. While few are rated IP68 like an iPhone 11 Pro, meaning they can be submerged in water without damage, several can handle rain or water jets/splashes.
Buy a larger drive, though, and you’re more likely to get other features. Desktop units may have a built-in “hub”, letting you plug-in memory cards or peripherals using USB ports. These are particularly useful if your current setup has limited connectivity, or the USBs you do have just aren’t that handy.
Which connector do you need?
Matching the hard drive’s connector to those of your laptop or desktop is also essential. You’ll get a cable in the box, but it will either terminate with a USB-A or USB-C shaped plug, as seen here:
USB-A (left) and USB-C.
Unless you have an old Mac or MacBook that only offers the old USB-A port, you’ll will want the newer USB-C connector, which also doubles up as Thunderbolt. Every Mac sold by Apple in the past few years features a USB-C style connector, although some Mac desktops still offer the older USB standard as well.
Not all USB-Cs are the same, though. The USB-C port on Macs also supports Thunderbolt 3 and in some cases Thunderbolt 4. USB-C is based on USB 3.1 and offers up to 10Gbps. Thunderbolt 3 offers up to 40Gbps. Thunderbolt 4 also offers 40Gbps, but has a few other advantages, including a 32Gbps data rate, which will be a benefit to anyone who needs to transfer large video files to from the drive to their desktop for editing. There’s also a new USB 4 standard that offers between 20Gbps and 40Gbps bandwidth that you will see alongside the newer Thunderbolt 4 standard, but note that USB 4 doesn’t offer all the features of Thunderbolt.
It’s clear that Thunderbolt is a better option than USB if you are looking for the best interface for your hard drive, but Thunderbolt options are likely to be more expensive than their USB counterparts.
Wireless and NAS
Not every hard drive needs to be plugged in: you can also opt for a network-attached storage (NAS) drive which enables to to wirelessly transfer files and backups. These network-attached storage drives connect to your home Wi-Fi to share their data with other devices in your home. That might be a smart TV, Apple TV, a tablet or laptop.
A NAS is particularly useful if you want to set up a media server at home. This is like a wireless jukebox you can fill with videos, photos and music. Read our best NAS drives feature for more.
TOP 10 Best External Drives for Mac in 2023
This is the ranking of the best external drives for MacBook, iMac, Mac Pro and Mac mini.
Filling up the drive on your macOS computer isn’t that hard, and that’s where the best external hard drives (HDDs) and solid state drives (SSDs) for Mac fit in: these plug-in drives instantly add gigabytes of extra storage, giving you plenty of room for your photos, videos, music, podcasts and anything else you want to keep. It is a fact.
You also have a huge choice, from small portable drives that fit in your pocket to hefty devices that take up a significant amount of your desk and can transfer files to any computer on your local network.

You will see the two types of technologies mentioned below – the first HDD (hard disk drive) is a conventional, slower mechanical technology. They can’t compete on transfer speeds, but they give you a lot of power for little money. There’s also an SSD (Solid State Drive), a faster storage technology with no moving parts for those who don’t mind paying extra.
As we note in our ranking of the best SSDs, these drives offer orders of magnitude faster speeds than conventional hard drives. Insane speed isn’t everything, in secondary storage, capacity is often the most important thing, so it’s important to understand which product is best for the user’s needs.
With so many makes and models to choose from, finding the best external drive for your Mac can be tricky. Everyone’s needs are different, and the right drive for you depends on how you’re going to use it, what you’re going to store on it, how much you’re willing to spend, and a number of other factors.
But don’t panic, because our buying guide will tell you everything you need to know: we’ve rounded up the best Mac external drives you can buy and explain what makes each one so good.

Seagate Ultra Touch
The best Mac external hard drive for most people
Maximum capacity: 2TB Maximum read speed: 120MB/s. Portable: Yes
Pros
Stylish fabric trim
No power supply required
Cons
9004 2
Not the fastest
External hard drives don’t have to be complex, which proves Seagate Ultra Touch. It simply and effectively gives you plenty of extra storage for your Mac, and at a very affordable price. Here we have presented a cheaper and slower version of the hard drive, but if you want to pay extra, a faster SSD model is also available.
For most people, hard drives still offer the best value for money, even if you have to wait a few extra seconds when you copy large files. Whether you choose an HDD or SSD model, these drives are completely portable, so all you need is a drive and a USB3.0 cable (it has a USB-A connector, there’s a USB-C adapter in the box).
A few words about the design of these drives, because they are one of the most stylish we have seen. Whether you choose white or black finishes, fabric adds a touch of class to your Mac. As an added bonus, you get a free 4-month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud Photography.

G-Technology G-DRIVE with Thunderbolt 3
Simply the best Mac external hard drive
Capacity: 4-18TB Technology: hard drive 7 200 rpm Interface: USB 3.1 Gen 1, Thunderbolt 3 Speed: up to 255MB/s
Pros
Thunderbolt fast connection
9004 3 Up to 18 TB of storage
Great looks
Cons
Not fast SSD
Expensive
An external hard drive for a modern Mac really needs a Thunderbolt 3 connection to give it the best possible performance, and with a pair of Thunderbolt 3 ports, this G-Drive offering is the leader. The sleek brushed metal body also looks like a piece of Apple hardware and doesn’t hide serious features. The
Thunderbolt 3 G-Drive is available with a whopping 18TB of storage, although capacities up to 4TB are also available for a more affordable price. G-Drive is pre-formatted to work flawlessly with Mac devices right out of the box and is Time Machine compatible.
If you buy a smaller capacity and later find that you need more space, you can use this second Thunderbolt 3 port to daisy chain an additional G-Drive so you don’t need to use another Thunderbolt port on your Mac.

LaCie Portable v2 SSD
Best Premium External Drive for Mac
Max Capacity: 2TB Max Read Speed: 1050 MB/s. Portable: Yes
Pros
Excellent Transfer Speed
USB 3.2 Gen 2 Technology
Cons
900 42
Expensive
It’s hard to go wrong with a LaCie disc – the premium brand has been making external hard drives, and while they can often cost more in terms of price per gigabyte than other models, the extra investment is usually worth it. Which brings us to one of their new drives, the LaCie Portable SSD.
The name says just about everything you need to know about this external hard drive for Mac: it features ultra-fast SSD technology (with read speeds up to 1050MB/s) and is portable so you can take it anywhere without a separate power supply. In our opinion, it also looks quite stylish.
Thanks to the SSD technology installed here and the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface (USB-C cable included), you can, for example, transfer about an hour of high-definition video content in less than a minute. This is ideal if you regularly move large amounts of data on your computer(s).

SanDisk Extreme Pro V2
Fastest External Hard Drive for M1 iMac or MacBook
Capacity: 500GB-2TB Technology: Solid State Drive NVMe Interface: USB 3.2 Gen 2× 2 Speed: up to 2000 MB/s
Pros
Incredibly fast
Portable and powered by USB
Cons
Requires M1 Mac to open fully
Only 2TB maximum capacity
If you have one of the latest M1 MacBooks or iMacs, you can connect the drive using the latest Thunderbolt 4/USB 4 interface. almost impossible nowadays, but this SanDisk drive is the best thing. While strictly speaking it’s a portable SSD and not a device that lives on your desk, there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be used in place of a larger desktop external hard drive.
Capacity ranges from 500GB to 2TB, which isn’t that much by today’s standards, but the upside is that it’s one of the fastest external SSDs for Macs. If you’re using an older Mac with an Intel processor, we recommend the cheaper SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD V2 (not Pro) as your portable option. It’s slower on paper, but will run at the same speeds as the Extreme Pro when plugged into a USB 3.2 port.
Also note that both of these drives will be pre-formatted to work with both Windows and Mac. However, if you want to use them with Time Machine, you will need to reformat, but this is a simple procedure.

Western Digital My Cloud Home Duo
Best Storage Mac External Hard Drive
Max Capacity: 20TB Max Read Speed: not listed 900 11 Portable: No
Pros
Lots and lots of space
Add-ons available
Cons
Big and heavy unit
WD My Cloud Home Duo is definitely thunder slow and requires a separate power supply, but this is undoubtedly one of the best external hard drives for Mac in terms of total storage capacity: depending on the drives you install inside the device (and there are two bays), you can set it up to have up to 20TB of space.
This allows you to store a large amount of data, although you will be charged accordingly. We’re impressed with how many configurations you can go with this drive – it starts at 4TB, so you can really choose the storage and price to suit your needs and your budget, while still keeping all the usual Western Digital quality.
In addition to storing files, Home Duo connects directly to your router, meaning it’s instantly accessible from all Macs in your home. It can work seamlessly with backup programs like Time Machine, and the built-in software even lets you set up different storage slots for different users.
If you need to seriously upgrade your Mac’s storage without spending a fortune, this external hard drive from one of the biggest brands in the business is perfect. Elements Desktop is based on a regular hard drive, not a fast SSD, so don’t expect it to set any speed records. But the upside is that you pay much less per gigabyte of capacity, and you’ll still find transfer speeds fast enough to transfer high-resolution images and HD video without too much waiting.
The drive requires a separate power supply, but this applies to most external desktop hard drives. Capacity ranges from 4TB to a whopping 18TB, and they all have a good price for the capacity you get, but we think the 8TB version is a decent compromise between price and capacity.
6
WD My Book
Best Value Mac External Hard Drive

Pros
+Affordable prices
Up to 18 TB memory

WD Elements SE
Best Portable External SSD for Mac
Max Capacity: 2TB Max Read Speed: 1050MB/s. Portable: Yes
Pros
No power supply required
2m drop proof
Cons
900 42
Other drives are faster
From the USB port it’s plugged into, the WD Elements SE SSD is worth a look: it’s fast, stylish, and affordable, with capacities up to 2TB. It’s perfect for slipping into your bag or even your shirt pocket (depending on the size of your shirt pockets) as you move between computers and locations.
Western Digital has made it too tough, it will withstand a drop of up to 2 meters, and comes with a three-year warranty for some extra peace of mind. It uses a USB 3.0 interface and you get a USB-A cable in the box (check the ports available on your Mac to determine if you’ll need an adapter).
While not the fastest Mac external hard drive you’ll come across, your files will still speed up when you transfer them back and forth thanks to the SSD (Solid State Drive) technology used here. If 2TB is out of your budget, you can get them in 480GB or 1TB capacity configurations.

Lacie 2big Dock Thunderbolt 3
Mac External Hard Drive and more
Capacity: 8TB-36TB Technology: Hard drive Interface: USB 3.1, Thunderbolt 3 Speed: up to 440MB/s
Pros
Dual hard drive security
Built-in card reader and USB hub
Multiple capacity options
9004 9
Cons
Expensive, especially for high capacities
The 2big Dock LaCie for desktop contains not one, but two hard drives. The idea is that your data is automatically copied to both drives internally so if one drive fails you will still have a copy of the data on the other, this is a technology called RAID: Redundant Array of Independent Disks.
2big Dock goes one step further, it also has SD and CompactFlash card slots so you can upload images and videos directly to 2big or import them into editing software without the need for a separate card reader. There’s also a USB 3.1 port for even more data transfer versatility, while two Thunderbolt 3 ports provide ultra-fast data transfer speeds of up to 440MB/s, as well as DisplayPort compatibility to complement your Mac monitor with another 1080p or 4K display.
Capacity ranges from 8TB to a whopping 36TB, all backed by an impressive 5 year warranty.

Samsung T7 SSD
Best Fast Transfer Mac External Hard Drive
Max Capacity: 2TB Max Read Speed: 1050MB/s. Portable: Yes
Pros
Lightning fast speed
Very compact size
Cons
More expensive HDD
Those who want to get one of the fastest solid state drives on the market without overpaying should note the Samsung T7. This incredibly compact and surprisingly fast external drive demonstrates the power and potential of SSD technology and is likely to be your go-to external storage companion if you invest in it.
Measuring only 85 x 57 x 8 mm and weighing only 58 grams, this is a very small drive – it’s hard to imagine how small it is until you see it with your own eyes. It takes up the same amount of space in your pocket or bag as a smartphone. It’s definitely worth considering if you travel a lot and like to do it light, it’s drop-proof up to 2 meters thanks to the cool titanium case.
With read speeds up to 1050MB/s and the latest USB 3.2 Gen 2 technology to connect your device to your Mac, it’s a true flagship. You get a USB-A cable included in the box, so you may need to pick up an adapter or another cable if you only have the newer USB-C on your Mac.

Synology DS218play
External hard drive with internet connection and more
Capacity: 4TB-16TB Technology: HDD or SSD Interface: USB 3. 2 Gen 1, Ethernet RJ-45 Speed: depends on drives installed
Pros

Some training required
A NAS (network attached storage) drive is essentially an external hard drive on steroids. It allows you to store your entire collection of photos and videos in one physical location at home or in the studio, just like on a regular external hard drive. But unlike a regular external hard drive, a NAS drive adds a network connection so it can be connected through an internet router to your home network and the internet. NAS drives also boot with a simple computer operating system that allows you to view their file content, photos, and videos from a remote location.
Synology has a reputation for making high-quality NAS devices, and the DiskStation DS218play is a great option for hobby photographers. Offering typical NAS options, it’s also an all-in-one home media center capable of streaming images and videos to computers and mobile devices, as well as Apple TV. Versatile built-in media players—Video Station, Photo Station, and Audio Station, each with a companion mobile app—make it easy to access and view your media.
Just be aware that, unlike a normal external hard drive, NAS drives usually come without one inside, so you’ll also have to factor in the extra cost of two hard drives to make sure the DS218play is fully functional.

Bath & Body Works FAQs
Does Bath & Body Works offer promo codes and coupons?
Although Bath & Body Works is famous for offering coupons, the retailer generally tends to place the coupon expiration dates so they expire by Black Friday. While you can use coupons for three days before and three days after their expiration date at the retailer, the coupons are usually just outside of these dates.

⏰ Dates0005
* We are Backit, the official cashback service for more than 800 stores in Russia and around the world. Through Backit, stores return money to customers: 10-15% of the amount of purchases in the form of cashback.
When is Black Friday 2022 in Russia?
Traditionally, the Black Friday sale will take place on the last Friday of the month — November 25, 2022.
Most stores try to start the promotion on November 25th and extend it over the coming weekend, until Monday November 28th.
However, in pursuit of customers, some stores start Black Friday a little earlier. For example, Black Friday in M-Video started already on October 22 – a month earlier than other retailers. We recommend checking the dates of Black Friday on the official websites of stores.
Until Black Friday 2022 left:
Black Friday 2022 in Russia: list of stores
In 2022, more than 80 partner stores of our service participate in the Black Friday sale. You can supplement your discounts with cashback from Backit: choose a store from the list below, and we will refund you up to 30% of the purchase price. Recall that the sale will begin on the morning of November 25, 2022, and the best prices for goods will be valid at the start of the sale.
Black Friday in electronics stores:
Although electronics remains the most popular category of purchases on Black Friday from year to year, discounts of more than 30% should not be expected – competition in this niche is high, therefore the marginality of goods is low, and it is possible to make a discount on electronics not every manufacturer.
Black Friday in marketplaces:
Marketplaces charge sellers a commission of 2 to 24% of the cost of the purchased goods, so in order to attract customers, they may well make a discount of 18-20% of the original price of the goods.
Black Friday at cosmetics sellers:
Cosmetics have been and remain a hit in the autumn period, when all major manufacturers reduce prices and increase cashback rates. Don’t miss the opportunity to double your savings 😉
Black Friday in clothing and footwear stores:
BF 2022 is also a great opportunity to update your winter and demi-season wardrobe. Fortunately, this year at least 9 cool sellers of clothes and shoes participate in the promotion.
Black Friday at home stores:
The construction season has passed, demand has fallen, which means that DIY stores and power tool brands are discounting their products.
Black Friday in children’s stores:
Black Friday in jewelry stores:
We advise you to make a list of purchases that you want to make in advance, so as not to let the abundance of crossed-out price tags during the promotion confuse you. Getting a good discount and at the same time returning cashback for purchases is real! Choose any of the major online stores presented on this page and buy with a double benefit for yourself!
The Favorable Price Festival will start very soon!
How often is Black Friday?
The blackest Black Friday sale takes place only once a year, on the last Friday of November. In 2022, the worldwide action will take place on the 25th. For exactly one day, sellers will lower the prices of their goods, and shopping centers will be filled with buyers.
The very tradition of holding a sale on this day came to us from the United States of America, where after the nationwide Thanksgiving Day holiday, which always takes place on Thursday, many people took an extra day of vacation on Friday at their own expense to arrange a short vacation (with Thursday to Sunday) and spend more time with your family.
And since Thanksgiving Day is one of the most important holidays in the USA, the mood these days was extremely non-working. Far-sighted store owners decided to take advantage of this and agreed to hold a sale on Friday. In addition to the obvious benefit in the form of a large flow of customers, sellers also receive an unobvious advantage: they get rid of stock balances before the New Year.
Gradually, the tradition of holding a large sale on this day came to us in Russia. Moreover, one of the first stores that introduced Russians to Black Friday was the Eldorado electronics hypermarket. By the way, that was nine years ago, back in 2013.
What do they buy at the sale?
Since the list of “black” sellers whose windows will show off the bright inscription “sale” on November 25 is very extensive, it is extremely difficult to say unequivocally which goods are in maximum demand. And since you can’t get the most objective statistics on all participants in the promotion, let’s focus on the data of marketplaces that offer a wide range, and therefore accumulate a huge amount of order data.
The list of popular items on BF starts, of course, with electronics and home appliances. Throughout the year, buyers look at gadgets, study reviews, compare prices, and finally wait for the coveted discounts. This applies to both small electronics like fitness bracelets and large household appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. Again, on this day, prices are reduced for all products, regardless of their category.
The second most popular product group is clothing and footwear. And of course, most of the items sold are for women. The upcoming winter and the November sale are excellent reasons to warm up and buy festive clothes for the New Year: as a gift to your loved ones and yourself.
The third category is accessories. Our smartphones, laptops, clothes and shoes require constant care. And accessories help in this matter: for gadgets, these can be covers and cleaning products, and for clothes and shoes – rollers, jewelry, brushes and much more. The average check in the accessories category is small, but the sales volume is really serious.

Black Friday 2023 in Samara
Black Friday is the favorite day of the year for all fashionistas. On this day, you can buy clothes from new collections, household appliances, cosmetics, goods for children and household items with a discount of up to 90%. Initially, Black Friday was held in the USA, where discounts on all goods in partner stores were 60-90%, gradually the trend spread around the world. Such a large city as Samara could not stand aside – for several years, large shopping centers in Samara have been actively participating in Black Friday. Shops on this day open from early morning and work until late at night, the shelves at the end of the day are completely empty.
The start of Christmas sales starts from Black Friday, but you can buy any product with the biggest discount only on this day. Shopping centers in Samara are preparing for this day in advance, last year such shopping centers Opera, Empire and Millennium were especially distinguished. Almost all of their stores provided discounts on products. The largest influx of buyers was observed in the stores of the Imperia and Imperiya-2 shopping center, since it was here that most of the stores provided discounts.
Traditionally, the month of the event is November. 2022 was marked by a huge influx of people to shopping centers and supermarkets in Samara, despite the fact that in Russia this day is not yet celebrated on such a large scale as in the USA, sellers managed to sell most of their goods.
In 2023, Black Friday around the world, including Samara, will take place on November 24th. Many stores of various profiles take part in it, such a sale is beneficial for owners of points of sale.
To make your purchases as quickly and efficiently as possible, you should decide in advance on the category of goods you need and the stores you want to visit. Usually the store informs about the size of discounts in advance, so that the buyer can more easily make a choice.
You can make purchases at a discount not only in shopping centers, but also via the Internet without leaving your home. Many online stores are ready to provide excellent discounts from the best brands:
Lamoda is the largest clothing store for women, men and children. There are also shoes and accessories.
Aliexpress is a hypermarket product from China, it has everything from a needle to a modern gadget. Discount on Aliexpress on Black Friday is usually about 80%.
Difference Between HDMI Splitters And HDMI Switches- All You Need To K – FireFold
Are you frustrated with now and then swapping of HDMI cables? Did you just purchase the latest PS/Xbox gaming console, and there is no spot to plug it on the television set? Or do you wish to have the same signal on multiple televisions?
Does the above sound familiar? Yeah! Then, you need to buy either an HDMI splitter or an HDMI switch.
Both the HDMI splitters and HDMI switches are an inexpensive means to make your present T.V. system relevant and useful. But, now the big question is which one to choose?
Don’t worry, you need not break a sweat to find the answer to the above query, as here in this post, we’ll differentiate them in detail.
What Are HDMI Switches?
An HDMI switch is an electronic accessory that lets us swiftly run multiple HDMI devices through a single television set.
It is an apt solution to our everyday headache when the number of inbuilt ports of the T. V. set is less than the HDMI devices. This means, you no longer have to unplug one device to plug-in the other HDMI device.
The HDMI switches are available in a spectrum of sizes at firefold.com, with a top-selling size category having four inputs and one output. A 4:1 HDMI switch enables you to connect four HDMI devices to one television screen.
What Are HDMI Splitters?
An HDMI splitter is a popular-selling alternative to an HDMI switch, as the former presents you the freedom to run one HDMI device over multiple televisions.
It is best suited for individuals who don’t wish to have more than one HDMI device or subscription.
Typically, in the gadget accessory markets, the HDMI splitters are available in two different types, one that is installed with the use of the network cable, and others via the HDMI cable.
If you want to send HDMI signals over long distances, then the HDMI splitter installed through the network cable is the preferred choice. Just like the HDMI switches, the splitters also come in a myriad of configuration options.
Key Differences between HDMI Splitters and HDMI Switches:
An HDMI splitter accepts one source and casts it on more than one television screen. An HDMI switch, on the other hand, takes more one than source, and then sends it to one device or T.V. via the cable output.
An HDMI switch labeled as 3:1 means three source inputs and one output, whereas the HDMI splitter would be labeled 1:3, and it means one source input and three outputs.
Before you decide on purchasing either of the HDMI switch or splitter, make sure the one you choose is compatible with your device resolution.
Which One is Best-Suited?
If you want to broadcast one device over multiple screens at the same time, then it is a no-brainer to go with an HDMI splitter. To better understand, let’s take an example, a corporate employee can better demonstrate his/her presentation by casting content on the big screen while his/her monitor is projected for reference use.
On the flip side, the HDMI switches are well-suited, if you need to combine inputs from two different devices on one television screen. So, when you don’t want to shell out cash to purchase another screen, and are tired with swapping HDMI cables, then an HDMI switch could be of great help.
At last, the HDMI switches and splitters are quite cost-affordable.
Here at firefold.com, you’ll discover the widest selection of high-quality, genuine HDMI switches and HDMI splitters at best prices. Check out our online store now!

At Staples, we provide a broad range of office chairs and seating, so you can find the right fit for you. Select from multifunctional task chairs, computer & desk chairs, drafting stools and more. If you will be using your new chair for multiple hours a day, make sure to get an ergonomic office chair to prevent unnecessary strain.
Comfort, all day long
Office furniture that is the proper size and height makes a big difference. When shopping for chairs, the height of the seat should be adjustable so that the user’s feet can sit flat on the floor with their knees at right angles. Likewise, the accompanying office desk should be at a height where the users’ elbows can sit comfortably at right angles at their sides while typing or writing.

Make sure to match your new chair to an ergonomic gaming desk, the perfect complement for the high-tech gaming computer and accessories you’ve invested in.
Show seasonal allergies who’s boss
If you suffer from seasonal allergies, now is when they are at their worst. Stock up on allergy season’s most important products to keep your home, classroom, and office allergen-free. Start with an air purifier to strip the air of allergens like pollen and pet dander and replace existing air filters for improved air quality. Frequently dust, wipe down hard surfaces, and vacuum carpets and furniture to help eliminate pollen tracked in from outside and dander left behind by pets. When leaving the house, check the pollen count and bring a face mask to help filter the air you breath outside.
No matter what you do, it’s unlikely that the symptoms of seasonal allergies can be avoided entirely. Make sure to have over-the-counter cold and allergy medications on hand to battle symptoms, and stock up on facial tissues so you’ll always have one available when you need them.
Spring (Cleaning) is in the air
Spring cleaning and decluttering is a tradition meant to refresh our spaces for the year ahead. Staples has everything you need to clear out the clutter, store and organize your belongings, and all the right cleaning supplies.
Clear out the clutter
Start by preparing a checklist and make sure you have all the necessary supplies. Use storage bins and a label maker to make sorting and organizing easier. Prepare extra boxes for donations and trash bags for the things you no longer need. Look for decorative boxes & baskets that will compliment your home’s décor and use them to organize. You can also use closet organizers and storage drawers anywhere they are needed.
Start with the basics
An all-purpose cleaner, cleaning brush and microfiber cloths will clean most surfaces. Use a duster to remove unwanted dirt and furniture polish to revitalize wood surfaces. Upgrade your broom, dustpan, wet mop, and vacuum to make cleaning any type of flooring a breeze.
The nitty gritty
Spring cleaning doesn’t stop there. There’s so much you can do to reset your home:
Improve air quality and eliminate pollen and pet dander with a new air purifier and an air freshener with a scent you love.
On a sunny day, take the opportunity to clean your windows – you’ll need glass cleaner, a bucket, a squeegee, and paper towels.
Have a step stool or ladder on hand to access hard-to-reach places like the tops of cabinets and overhead lighting.
Replace broken light bulbs and check the batteries in your smoke detectors.
Use drain cleaner to clear up sink and bathtub drains.
Up your printing game with a Supertank Printer
Looking for a printer with more print capacity that’s better for the environment and your wallet? Shop Staples selection of Supertank Printers for all the benefits of an inkjet printer with the convenience and savings of replacement ink bottles that last longer and cost less per page than standard inkjet printer cartridges.

Rest assured it arrives safely & securely
Whether you are sending business documents or customer products, shipping and mailroom supplies from Staples make the process seamless.
Keep packing supplies ready for easy shipping. Padded envelopes and bubble mailers are perfect for shipping small, non-fragile items. Pack larger items in shipping boxes that are slightly larger than the item, and use packing peanuts, bubble roll, or other packing materials to keep objects from moving in the box during transport. Choose the right packing tape to ensure your packages will stay sealed. Staples carries clear acrylic packing tape for everyday shipping and reinforced or water activated tape for packages that require a heavier duty seal.
Manage the day-to-day office correspondence smoothly with a wide selection of business envelopes, inter-office envelopes, and catalog envelopes in the mailroom. Have finger pads and envelope moisteners on hand for speedy document collation and a quick seal. Choose security envelopes for confidential office correspondence and inter-office communications.

View brochure
Built to support your fleet now and into the future
Welcome to the most powerful GO device ever. The Geotab GO9 is redesigned from the ground up, featuring a 32-bit processor, more memory, more RAM and a gyroscope. The GO9 features expanded capacity for further native vehicle support, improved fuel usage support, electric vehicles and global expansion.
Data that is second to none
Accurate vehicle tracking
Collect rich, accurate data on vehicle location, speed, trip distance and time, engine idling and more. Even if your vehicle is parked indoors and underground, GPS vehicle tracking and telematics starts recording as soon as you begin driving. The GO9 introduces the new Global Navigation Satellite System module (GNSS) for faster latch times and increasingly accurate location data.
Vehicle health assessments
Extract valuable information on vehicle health and status. Record VIN, odometer, engine faults and more. This data not only helps prioritize vehicle maintenance, but also helps audit vehicle use to identify both safe and risky driving habits.
Collision detection and notification
Geotab offers exceptional harsh-event data (acceleration, braking, cornering, etc.) and collision reconstruction through our patented algorithms and the GO device’s accelerometer. If a suspected collision is detected, detailed forensic data will be automatically uploaded from the GO device to allow for forensic reconstruction of the event — including in-vehicle reverse collisions. Email and desktop alerts signal first notice of loss.
Secured data
Geotab uses authentication, encryption, and message integrity verification for Geotab GO vehicle tracking devices and network interfaces. Each Geotab GO device uses a unique ID and non-static security key, making it difficult to fake a device’s identity. Over-the-air updates use digitally-signed firmware to verify that updates comes from a trusted source.
In-vehicle driver coaching
Improve driving behaviors, like speeding and idling, by playing an audible alert or coach the driver with spoken words (available as an Add-On). Immediate feedback can enhance fleet safety, reinforce company policy and encourage your drivers to take immediate corrective action.
Advanced data capture
Vehicles send data from a multitude of sources, including the engine, drivetrain, instrument cluster and other subsystems. Utilizing multiple internal networks, the GO9 captures much of this data.
Simple installation
The Geotab GO9 is a compact vehicle tracking device that simply plugs directly into your vehicle’s OBD II port with no additional mandatory antennas or wire-splicing required. The installation process is quick, easy, and doesn’t require any special tools. See the installation sheet for full details.

IP65 weather rating and wire-free six month battery life, plus a deep love of both journaling and Birkenstocks. Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 is Wyze Cam’s sportier, more outdoorsy cousin. Dropped out of high school, but values education, Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 is always ready with color night vision, a new oatmeal recipe, or an unsolicited lecture about saving the planet. This thing couldn’t be more granola if it came with a hammock. Prefers hostels to hotels, but will happily keep an eye on your stuff for you from either with its handy Travel Mode.
FAQs
Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 includes all the features you love from the previous outdoor cam, with the addition of a Starlight sensor for Color Night Vision, a bigger Field of View of 130º, and an improved PIR lens for fewer false detections.
Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 is equipped with a Starlight sensor that allows the camera to see color in extremely low light conditions.
The base station in the bundle for Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 is the same as the original Wyze Base Station. This means that if you already have a base station, you’re all set!
No, you do not need a subscription to use Wyze Cam Outdoor v2. But with Cam Plus, the camera can record longer videos with no cooldown period, and use state-of-the-art AI features including Person, Pet, Package, and Vehicle Detection.
The battery can last up to 3 to 6 months with normal usage (about 10-20 Events per day). Battery life varies based on settings, usage, and the temperature of the environment.
The cooldown period can be adjusted to 1 minute, 3 minutes, or 5 minutes. With Cam Plus Lite, the Event video length is 12 seconds. With Wyze Cam Plus, you can remove cooldown entirely and record longer Event videos.
The base station helps preserve the camera’s battery life by providing the internet connection to the camera. It also removes any compatibility issues with different router brands.
Wyze Base Station supports up to 4 cameras so you get the best experience, particularly when viewing each live stream at the same time. Bandwidth limitations can cause video data to be lost if more cams are paired. If you need more than 4 outdoor cams, pick up another starter bundle here.
Wyze Base Station requires an ethernet connection on the router during setup. After setup, you can connect to the base station via Wi-Fi in the Wyze app and unplug the ethernet cable. Then, place the base station anywhere you want as long as it has a Wi-Fi signal.
No, not on either Wyze Cam Outdoor. This camera was built for maximum flexibility so that you can put it anywhere you want, even where there is no power outlet. Continuously recording to a microSD card like on Wyze Cam v3 will drastically shorten the battery life. Because of this, we did not build this feature into Wyze Cam Outdoor v2 and recommend a Wyze Cam v3 for that.
However, there is a “Scheduled Recording” feature where you can schedule specific times for the camera to continuously record to its local microSD card or record when motion is detected, though it will reduce battery life.
Yes, the new outdoor camera is compatible with Wyze Solar Panel.
We have added a new feature for Wyze Cam Outdoor because we understand that the risk of theft is higher with products that are mounted outdoors. We built a mechanism that prevents a new account from setting up the camera if it is already paired with a Wyze account unless the original account releases it. In short, if someone steals the camera, the camera will not be able to be used again unless the owner removes the camera from their account.

Best Outdoor Security Cameras of 2023
Video doorbells are great for keeping an eye on the entrance to your home, but what about your backyard? Or your driveway? For those, you need outdoor security cameras.
These security cameras are weatherproof, and most run on rechargeable batteries, allowing you to mount them almost anywhere, even to a tree (provided it’s still in range of your home’s WiFi). If you have floodlights in these areas, you could even take advantage of their steady stream of power and install specialized floodlight security cameras.
Most cameras save footage to the cloud, but some let you save it locally on an SD card or a USB drive. Either way, the cameras use rolling storage, where the oldest footage is deleted to make room for new footage when there is no free space.
The smart features you’ll find on any given camera vary, but many of them send you smartphone alerts when they “see” things of interest, such as people, cars, animals, and packages. Other common features include voice control via digital assistants, such as Amazon Alexa and Google Home; two-way audio, for speaking to visitors via your smartphone or digital assistant; and the ability to silence motion alerts at certain times of day—say, during the day while you work from home.
In our tests, we assess the smart features in each outdoor security camera, plus the video quality (including how well night vision works) and how quickly you get an alert when the camera detects motion. And though privacy outside your home might not be as big a concern as what goes on inside your home, we still score models on how well they protect your data.
“Even outdoor cameras pose privacy and security concerns,” says Justin Brookman, CR’s director of technology policy. “Depending on where the cameras are positioned, they can reveal a lot about you, such as when you tend to leave and come home, and with whom. A hacker could potentially use that information to determine when would be a good time to break into a home, or at least snatch some packages. ”
Below you’ll find details on the 10 best outdoor security cameras from our tests, listed in alphabetical order. They’re made by Arlo, Eufy, Google Nest, Lorex, Ring, and TP-Link. All feature two-way audio and voice control via Amazon Alexa. Here are other features you’ll find in some of these models.
Monitoring zones: This feature allows you to highlight areas of the camera’s field of view, such as a driveway, to monitor for movement—or ignore when there is movement, such as a busy street.
Person, package, vehicle, and/or animal detection: The camera can detect their presence in its field of view and record footage.
Geofencing: This feature uses your phone’s location so that the camera will record and/or send alerts only when you’re away from home.
e911: You’ll find e911 in the camera’s smartphone app. With it, you can call your home’s local 911 dispatcher directly if there is an emergency. That could save valuable time if you’re away from home, because usually you’d be connected to the 911 dispatcher closest to where you’re calling from. In that case, you’d need to be put through to your local police department so that you can ask them to check on your property.
Arlo Essential Wireless Security Camera VMC2030-100NAS
Free video storage: None. Optional subscription costs: Through an Arlo Secure plan, you can get 30 days of cloud video storage for $5 per month for one camera or $13 per month for unlimited cameras; 30-day storage with in-app emergency response buttons for $18 per month for unlimited cameras; or all those features plus the Arlo Safe personal safety app and professional monitoring for the Arlo security system for $25 per month.
CR’s take: The Arlo Essential Wireless Security Camera is a fantastic security camera, receiving excellent ratings in our tests for video quality and data security. It also performs quite well in our response time test, but its data privacy could be better. This model gives you a built-in spotlight that allows for color night vision, a rechargeable battery, a siren, and voice and app control (via Amazon Alexa, Apple Home/Siri, and Google Home/Assistant), and it connects directly to WiFi (unlike its siblings below, which use base stations).
With an Arlo Secure subscription, you can get 30 days of cloud video storage for motion-triggered video clips as well as monitoring zones; person, package, vehicle, and animal detection; and emergency response buttons in the Arlo app, which allow you to request police, fire, or medical services with just a tap. The company offers subscriptions for 24/7 continuous video recording, too. If you don’t want to pay a monthly fee for video storage, you can use an Arlo Smart Hub ($100, sold separately) to save footage on a USB drive instead. The hub is also required for Apple Home/Siri to work.
Arlo Go 2 LTE WiFi
Free video storage: Yes, with a microSD card (sold separately). Optional subscription costs: Through an Arlo Secure plan, you can get 30 days of cloud video storage for $5 per month for one camera or $13 per month for unlimited cameras; 30-day storage with in-app emergency response buttons for $18 per month for unlimited cameras; or all those features plus the Arlo Safe personal safety app and professional monitoring for the Arlo security system for $25 per month.
CR’s take: The Arlo Go 2 LTE WiFi delivers outstanding video quality in CR’s tests. It also has top-notch data security and a very good response time, though its data privacy rating is lackluster. This model features monitoring zones, person alerts, a built-in siren, a rechargeable battery, and voice and app control (via Amazon Alexa and Google Home/Assistant).
With an Arlo Secure subscription, you can get 30 days of cloud video storage for motion-triggered video clips; person, package, vehicle, and animal detection; and emergency response buttons in the Arlo app, which allow you to request police, fire, or medical services with just a tap. The company offers subscriptions for 24/7 continuous video recording, too. If you don’t want to pay a monthly fee for video storage, there’s a microSD card slot for free and local video storage.
Arlo Pro 3 VMC4040P
Free video storage: Yes, via a USB drive. Optional subscription costs: Through an Arlo Secure plan, you can get 30 days of cloud video storage for $5 per month for one camera or $13 per month for unlimited cameras, 30-day storage with in-app emergency response buttons costs $18 per month for unlimited cameras, or you can get all those features plus the Arlo Safe personal safety app and professional monitoring for the Arlo security system for $25 per month.
CR’s take: The Arlo Pro 3 is a terrific camera that excels in our performance tests for video quality and device response time—plus for how useful its smart functions are, and how secure your data is kept. Where it falls behind is data privacy, a measure of how your data is shared. This model performs similarly to its predecessor, the Arlo Pro 2, but adds a built-in spotlight that allows for color night vision, a siren in the camera itself (not the base station), a wider 160-degree field of view, and higher-resolution 2K HDR video.
An Arlo Secure subscription gets you 30 days of cloud video storage for motion-triggered video clips, as well as monitoring zones; person, package, vehicle, and animal detection; and emergency response buttons in the Arlo app. The company offers subscriptions for 24/7 continuous video recording, too. If you don’t want to pay a monthly fee for video storage, you can connect a USB drive to the base station and store footage there instead.
Eufy Cam 2C Pro T8861 (Two-Camera Kit)
Free video storage: Yes, using 16 gigabytes of built-in memory. Optional storage subscription: Through a Eufy cloud storage plan, you can get 30 days of cloud storage for one camera for $3 per month or 30 days of storage for up to 10 cameras for $10 per month. For Apple Home users, an Apple iCloud+ storage plan gives you a rolling 10 days of storage for one camera for $1 per month, for up to five cameras for $3 per month, or for unlimited cameras, $10 per month.
CR’s take: The Eufy Cam 2C Pro is a bit unusual in that Eufy at minimum makes you buy a two-camera kit, making it better suited to shoppers looking for a multicamera system. In our tests, it performs well across the board, especially with its array of smart features. Its only flaw is its middling data privacy, but that’s a common issue for the majority of cameras in our ratings. The Eufy Cam 2C Pro packs a ton of features, including person detection, facial recognition, a built-in spotlight, monitoring zones, a siren, two-way audio, 16 gigabytes of memory for local video storage (there’s no SD card slot for expandable storage), and voice and app control via Amazon Alexa, Apple Home/Siri, and Google Home/Assistant.
A word about Eufy’s digital privacy and security: In November 2022, Eufy had a security issue that allowed camera feeds to be accessed with a media player. The company claims to have fixed it, but our test engineers are looking into the issue. We’ll update this article if we learn more. This follows a May 2021 security problem where Eufy users were accidentally able to access cameras owned by other users. The company said at the time that it was working to put additional safeguards in place to prevent such issues from happening again.
Eufy Solo Cam S40
Free video storage: Yes, using 8 gigabytes of built-in memory. Optional subscription costs: Through a Eufy cloud storage plan, you can get 30 days of cloud storage for one camera for $3 per month or 30 days of storage for up to 10 cameras for $10 per month. For Apple Home users, an Apple iCloud+ storage plan gives you a rolling 10 days of storage for one camera for $1 per month, for up to five cameras for $3 per month, or for unlimited cameras, $10 per month.
CR’s take: The Eufy Solo Cam S40 is the first security camera CR has tested with a built-in solar panel to recharge its battery. In our tests, it offers superb video quality, and it receives very good ratings for its response time and data security. The camera doesn’t offer great data privacy, though, which is common among these devices. It features monitoring zones; person alerts; voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Home/Assistant; a built-in siren; color night vision, thanks to its built-in spotlight; and 8GB of memory to store footage locally.
Google Nest Cam (Battery)
Free video storage: 3 hours of free video clips. Optional subscription costs: Through a Nest Aware plan, you get 30 days of storage for video clips for $6 per month or $60 per year, or 60 days of storage for video clips and a rolling 10 days of storage for 24/7 video recordings for $12 per month or $120 per year.
CR’s take: The Google Nest Cam (Battery) is a strong performer in our tests, offering near top-level video quality, data security, and response time scores. It’s also one of few security cameras to give you monitoring zones, object recognition (of people, packages, animals, and vehicles), and 3 free hours of cloud video storage without a monthly subscription. The camera works with Amazon Alexa, Google Home/Assistant, and Samsung SmartThings for voice and app control. Cloud video storage and additional features (such as facial recognition) require a Nest Aware subscription.
Lorex Smart Indoor/Outdoor WiFi W282CAD-E
Free video storage: Yes, using the included 32-gigabyte microSD card. Optional storage subscription: No.
CR’s take: The Lorex Smart Indoor/Outdoor WiFi W282CAD-E is an all-around great performer in our lab tests. Its video quality is top-tier, and it receives high marks for data security and response time. It offers midlevel data privacy in our tests, but that’s common for this product category. This camera comes with a 32-gigabyte microSD card for local video storage and features two-way audio, monitoring zones, person detection, vehicle detection, a siren to scare off intruders, and voice and app control via Amazon Alexa and Google Home/Assistant. But be aware, unlike most other cameras in this category, this Lorex doesn’t have the option to use rechargeable batteries, and has to be wired in for power.
Ring Stick Up Cam (Battery) 3rd Generation
Free video storage: None. Optional subscription costs: Through a Ring Protect plan, you get 180 days of cloud video storage for one camera for $4 per month or $40 per year, or 180 days for unlimited cameras for $10 per month or $100 per year. Ring also offers a plan with 180 days of storage for unlimited cameras and 24/7 professional monitoring for $20 per month or $200 per year.
CR’s take: For a camera that’s priced lower than many of the models on this list, consider the third-generation Ring Stick Up Cam (Battery). This camera works both indoors and outdoors, and gives you monitoring zones and voice control via Amazon Alexa. In our tests, it receives first-rate scores for video quality and response time. We also found that Ring does a good job of keeping your data secure, but its data privacy is lacking, in part because Ring doesn’t clearly state how long it retains your data and when it deletes it. If you subscribe to a Ring Protect video storage plan, you’ll get photo snapshots between recordings in the Ring app as well as person detection.
TP-Link Kasa Cam Outdoor KC420WS
Free video storage: Yes, with up to a 256-gigabyte microSD card (not included). Optional subscription costs: Through a Kasa Care plan, you get 30 days of cloud storage for one camera for $3 per month or $30 per year, or 30 days of storage for up to 10 cameras for $10 per month or $100 per year.
CR’s take: The TP-Link Kasa Cam Outdoor KC420WS offers impeccable video quality, speedy response time, and strong data security in our tests, though it receives an unfavorable rating for data privacy. Its many features include voice and app control via Amazon Alexa and Google Home/Assistant, monitoring zones, person alerts, a built-in siren, color night vision, and local video storage when you insert a microSD card (not included). If you’d like to store your footage in the cloud instead, you can sign up for a Kasa Care plan for a rolling 30 days of cloud video storage.
TP-Link Tapo C310 2K Outdoor
Free video storage: Yes, with a 256-gigabyte microSD card (not included). Optional storage subscription: No.
CR’s take: If you’re searching for a security camera with quick response time and stellar video quality, give the TP-Link Tapo C310 2K Outdoor a close look. This indoor/outdoor camera captures video with higher quality than most of the wireless security cameras CR tested. In addition to voice and app control via Amazon Alexa and Google Home/Assistant, this model features a built-in siren, monitoring zones, night vision, and person alerts. Its data privacy rating is lackluster, but it has strong data security. Videos can be stored locally on a 256-gigabyte microSD card (sold separately).

Setting up security cameras in the Home app on iPhone
You can view video from security cameras in your home in the Home app. With any HomeKit-compatible camera, you can view live video in the Home app, choose who can access the live video, and set notifications when activity is detected.
For a list of compatible security cameras, see the Home App Controlled Smart Home Accessories website.
If you have one or more HomeKit Protected Video-enabled cameras, the additional benefits listed below are available to you.
Encrypted video. Video recorded by your cameras is analyzed and encrypted on the device you use as your home hub (Apple TV or HomePod) and then securely uploaded to iCloud. These security measures ensure that only you and the people you share it with can view the video.
Video capture. If you have an iCloud+ subscription, you can view activity-detected surveillance video from the last 10 days. Depending on the tariff plan, it supports from one camera to an unlimited number of cameras. iCloud+ 50GB plan supports one camera; iCloud+ 200GB plan supports up to five cameras; iCloud+ 2TB plan supports unlimited cameras.
Note. Video content from cameras is not counted towards remaining free space in iCloud storage.
Activity zones. You can create zones for the camera to focus on the most important areas within the camera’s field of view.
Face recognition. You can receive notifications when people tagged in the Photos app appear in the camera’s field of view.
See Save encrypted security camera footage to iCloud with HomeKit Protected Video and Set up HomeKit Protected Video on all devices in the iCloud User Guide.
Camera options
When you add a camera to the Home app, you can select video streaming options and assign a room to the camera. With a camera that supports HomeKit Protected Video, you can also select recording options. By default, up to four cameras can be added to favorites and displayed on the Home tab. To change these settings later, tap the Cameras tile, then tap the button. The options listed below will be displayed.
Room. You can place the camera in one of the rooms of the house, or create a room if the camera is located outside the house, such as above the porch or in the yard.
Notices. Tap Status & Notifications, select the setting to receive notifications when the camera detects activity, changes status, or goes offline.
Recording setting for cameras that support HomeKit Protected Video. You can create different recording settings for use when you are at home and when you are not at home. For example, when you are at home, you can stop broadcasting and recording video from the camera located inside the house, but continue to broadcast and record video from the camera located outside.
The Home app uses the location of devices owned by home users to switch between Home and Away modes. For example, when you leave home with your iPhone, the camera switches from Home mode to Away mode.
Notification settings
On the Home tab, tap , then tap Home Settings.
Tap Cameras & Doorbells.
Touch the camera for which you want to set notifications.
Tap Notifications and turn on Activity Notifications.
HomeKit compatible cameras can send a notification when motion is detected. Cameras that support HomeKit Protected Video can also send notifications based on the following factors:
the onset of a certain time of day;
presence or absence of someone at home;
clip recording;
detection of any or specific movement.
When you select a specific motion, you are notified when the camera detects people, animals or vehicles, or when a delivery is in progress. In order for a delivered object to be detected, it must remain in the camera’s field of view after delivery.
Tip. If you select a specific type of motion, fewer clips will be created and you will receive fewer notifications than if the camera is set to detect any motion. The total length of the camera video you need to view will also be reduced. For example, if you select people detection, the camera will not start recording when it detects the movement of tree leaves or a squirrel jumping from branch to branch.
Create hotspots for cameras that support HomeKit Protected Video
You can create zones that focus a HomeKit Protected Video camera on the most important areas within its field of view, such as the front doorway rather than the sidewalk behind it. You can then receive alerts if motion is detected in these areas.
Activity zones can only be created for cameras configured to record when a certain type of motion is detected. Activity zones do not affect automations related to motion detection.
On the Home tab, tap the camera tile, then tap the button.
Tap Select Activity Zones, tap the video to create a zone, then tap Add Zone.
To make the camera detect motion only outside the zone you specify, tap Swap Zone.
Create any additional zones in the camera’s field of view, such as one for the driveway and one for the mailbox.
Touch the Done button.
To remove an activity zone, click Select Activity Zones, click inside the zone, then click Clear.
Watching videos
On the Home tab, tap the camera tile.
Live streaming will start playing automatically.
If you have chosen to record video on a camera that supports HomeKit Protected Video, swipe the timeline at the bottom of the screen to view the recorded clips.
Touch a clip to play it.
Tap Live to return to live video.
When the camera is set to detect a certain type of motion, the timeline displays symbols for objects whose motion has been detected: people, animals, vehicles, and delivered items.
You can also view recorded and live videos in the Home app on your Mac with macOS 10.15.1 or later installed.
Select access options
Follow the steps below to allow other people to view video from your cameras.
Tap , then tap Home Settings.
Select a person under the People heading.
Tap Cameras, then choose an option.
To let other people watch videos from your cameras, see Let other people control accessories in your home.
