But portable SSDs aren't just for backups. Even if you prefer using online backup software and don't plan on backing up anything to a physical drive, there are lots of great reasons to have a compact, portable SSD on hand. (Our go-to recommendation? The Crucial X9 Pro, which tops our roundup of the best external drives). Here are some especially useful uses to consider.
Bring media files to your media center
A portable SSD is an excellent and near-foolproof way to get media files (e.g., videos, music, and photos) from your PC to your home media center. It's way faster than via wireless transfer!
For example, if you have a Roku streaming box or Roku TV with a USB port, you can connect a portable SSD to that USB port and use the Roku Media Player app to watch videos, play music, and view photos straight off the drive. That's just one option for one streaming platform — there's a good chance your own streaming device or gaming console of choice has a USB port, and if it does, it likely has its own media player app.

The answer, it turns out, is today. On the official Tablo blog, Tablo manufacturer Nuvyyo announced that it's rolling out a long-promised feature that allows users of the fourth-generation Table DVRs to watch live TV with an antenna and stream previously recorded over-the-air TV shows even when their internet goes out or Tablo servers go down.
Tablo's new offline mode comes a few weeks after Tablo DVR users endured a pair of server outages that briefly locked them out of live and recorded over-the-air TV streams and temporarily blanked out their electronic programming guides.
There have been plenty of other Tablo outages in the past too, enough so that Tablo owners have long been asking for an offline mode that would allow them to access live TV via an antenna, as well as their recorded OTA shows when Tablo's servers are inaccessible.
The new offline mode (first reported by Cord Cutters News) has some quirks, including the fact that it can't be ac

Microsoft's Copilot AI could soon run locally on PCs rather than relying on the cloud.
Intel told Tom's Hardware that the chatbot could run on future AI-enabled PCs that would need to incorporate neural processing units (NPUs) capable of exceeding 40 trillion operations per second (TOPS) — a performance level not yet matched by any consumer processor currently available.
Intel mentioned that these AI PCs would be equipped to handle "more elements of Copilot" directly on the machine. Copilot currently relies predominantly on cloud processing for most tasks, leading to noticeable delays, especially for minor requests. Enhancing local computing power is expected to reduce such delays, potentially boosting performance and privacy.

Most online users have experienced it. You do an online search for healthcare purposes, travel information, or something to buy and soon you're being bombarded with emails and targeted online ads for everything related to your search. That's because browser cookies were tracking you as you performed your searches; they identified you and your activity.
Over the past few years, the online advertising industry has been undergoing a sea change as regulators restricted how cookies can be used and browser providers moved away from their use in response to consumer outcries over privacy.
"They often feel surveilled; some even find it ‘creepy' that a website can show them ads related to their behavior elsewhere," according to a recent study by the HEC Paris Business School.
