Tech Tip #006

What's the difference b/w Megabit & Megabyte?

Think of it like a highway.
Megabit is the speed limit (Mbps = MPH).
Megabyte are the total mile driven (MB = distance)

So you may pay for 120Mbps speed internet, but that translates into getting a max download of 15MB of data a second.

If you delete something from your device, only the map to the file is deleted. It is still there till it is written over. Even if you do a factory reset.

Tech Tip #003

Ever wonder how the the internet finds what your looking for? Think of it like the Post Office. When you send a letter with your address, asking for a photo from your family member. It first has leave your hand (computer) to your local mailbox (router) to the Post office (DNS exchange server) and finally to your family member's home (computer). Then when they send the photo back to you, the process repeats. That's sort of how it works.

Tech Tip # 001

Memory is not storage & storage is not memory. Memory is considered your RAM, where your programs and data stay while you are using them. Storage is where your files and data are permanently kept.

Consider RAM as your short term memory.
And Storage as your long term memory.
