Latest Windows Update Slows Down Computer

This product worked without additional software needed on a Mac with the latest OS software installed, and on a Windows 11 computer with all of the latest updates applied. It works with both my USB A Mac adapter, the USB C connectors on my Mac, and on the USB A connections on my Windows computer. I am able to utilize an older synthesizer that I can now move around the home with ease and connect it to whichever device I need to (even my iPhone apparently).

My computer front ports stopped working with a Windows 10 update, and I could not get them to work again. But my rear 3.1 ports were working fine. So I saw this little unit, and bought it at B&H's low price. It's plug and play, and functions perfectly. I plugged it into a rear port, and double-sided taped it to the computer top. It has a power button that once turned on, never has to be used again. Turn the computer off, turn it on again, and the hub powers up with the computer. Perfect, and an easy fix! I can high-speed transfer to my USB sticks again!

This really sped up my computer hugely. I sometimes run virtual machines on my computer, and with this my virtual machines run so quickly. It's a big difference from when I had different storage in my computer. One other nice thing is you can update the firmware without Windows. I use Linux, and it really helps to have firmware you can update without needing Windows;

Downloaded the latest firmware from Windows 10 and it just worked.

I have tried it once to see if I had the latest firmware for the lens and it indicated that I have the latest update. If I find the lens needs improving I'll use it again.

Works as expected. Needs the latest firmware update to see this case and use expanded features.

Now I say this but you have to keep in mind that the latest software update as of this writing falls short in one area of my concern namely, the syncing of e-mails will not work(However Apple is aware of this and plans to rectify this problem). I must rave about all the features including but not limited to: Health apps, workout apps receiving calls and texts plus whole lot more. It a wonderful watch!

Ensure to update the BIOS with latest AGESA ComboV2 1.2.0.0. That improves the power management much better. Since I am upgrading from i7 965, the multiple task is improved 7x.

I'm using this controller with Ableton and it was very quick and easy to setup (my unit already had the latest firmware update too, which was nice). There's a program on the unit for Ableton which again made controlling aspects within the DAW seamless. It's obviously small (only 25 keys), but having the pads and encoders on such a compact unit is great. Fits right on my desk and lets me edit/perform parameters live, and is easy to throw into my bag and take with me. Only downside is that there's no midi out (just usb). So means I can't use with some hardware synths. But for DAW control, fantastic.

Now that the latest firmware update allows the Weebill-S to connect to the Z6, this is my favorite gimbal for its portability and easy of setup. The locks make balancing quick and simple. And the quick release plate is handy if you are a hybrid shooter. I was able to get a 70-200 G2 to balance, but any tilting movements overpowered the motors.
