Tech & Hardware Calculators
5 tools
Numbers that help when you are building or upgrading a machine: how long an SSD should last given its rated writes, how much space a RAID setup leaves you, how thick a wire needs to be on a 12V circuit, why a 1 TB drive shows less space in your operating system (GB versus GiB), and how many milliseconds a frame lasts at a given refresh rate. These are estimates based on manufacturer ratings and standard formulas, so leave a margin before you rely on them.
