Late 2008 Unibody 15″ MacBook Pro Unboxing
I went to my local Best Buy on January 3, 2009 to exchange my recently purchased MacBook for a MacBook Pro. I found the MBP to fit me best at what I usually need it for. At the time the highest configuration available at Best Buy was the 2.53GHz model, which I purchased at retail value of $2499. The current MacBook Pro models (Mid-2009) are almost $1000 cheaper than before, and rumors are that Apple may have downgraded some technologies in them (slower SATA I instead of SATA II, etc.) in order to sell the computers for lower prices on this unstable economy.

How to make your own external hard drive and use it with Time Machine
This tutorial teaches you how to take an old hard drive laying around your house and make use of it by turning it into an external hard drive. Once your former internal hard drive, you have to get an external enclosure. Ebay sells them pretty cheap.
Once you have your external enclosure, install your the hard drive into the enclosure and plug it into your Mac. From there you can grab all your old files if you like, but in this tutorial, I teach you how to thoroughly erase the hard drive with no detection of what was on it ever.
After you have erased the hard drive, you now can use it as a regular external hard drive. You just saved lots of money.
If you like to use it as a Time Machine drive, go ahead and go to spotlight, and type in time machine or select it from our dock and set up your new external hard drive with Time Machine.

The new MacBook Pro has a small port that makes a big difference. The Mini DisplayPort is part of a brand-new industry standard. It delivers a pure digital connection to external displays — even large 30-inch displays — quickly and without a glitch. No more multiple-pin connectors with unwieldy screws; the ultracompact Mini DisplayPort gives you plug-and-play performance with the new Apple LED Cinema Display. And it supports VGA and DVI connections, too.Get the (really) big picture. With a MacBook Pro, you can work or play anywhere.

Plug in three simple connectors — Mini DisplayPort, USB, and MagSafe — and suddenly you have more room to work and play, plenty of space for peripherals, and an automatic charge for your MacBook Pro. You dont even need to take the power adapter out of your bag. And instantly, everything you see is bigger, brighter, and even more brilliant. Brilliant brilliance. The moment you open your MacBook Pro youre greeted by glorious, full screen brightness. But thats only one gleaming quality of the glossy LED-backlit widescreen display. The picture is brilliant and sharp from corner to corner. And anything you view — including the ultrathin display itself — is a spectacular experience.

ICY DOCK MB662UEAB-2S External 2 Bay RAID Enclosure - 1394a / 1394b / USB - Time Machine
More information: http://www.icydock.com/product/mb662ueab-2s.html
The MB662UEAB-2S is an enclosure that can store two 3.5 hard drives and has a built-in RAID to configure them for different RAID settings. It has two RAID configurations, RAID 0 and RAID 1, and supports BIG & JBOD. The enclosure also offers USB and both FireWire 400 and 800 interfaces. The MB662 also has a built-in fan with an adjustable speed control to increase or decrease fan speed. Like our previous MB664 models, the body of the MB662 is surrounded by a solid aluminum body, which allows better heat dissipation, and requires no screws or tools to install hard drives. The door is easily accessible by two buttons located on the top of the enclosure. The spacing inside allows enough area to dissipate the heat out of the enclosure. This is an ideal storage device for video and audio editors and is compatible with Time Machine. This enclosure also has a built-in security slot for the security cable kit.
