Storage, systems & data

Computers

Reference tools for the machines themselves — storage layout, capacity, and the trade-offs that come with keeping data safe, the networks that connect them, and the binary underneath it all.

RAID Calculator

Usable capacity, how many drives can fail, throughput, cost and rebuild risk — for every RAID level side by side.

capacity · resilience · throughput

Screen Refresh Rate Test

Measure what your browser is really presenting at, from 60 Hz to 500 and beyond — with jitter, dropped frames, 1% lows and a variable-refresh check.

Password Strength & Crack Time

Entropy in bits against five classes of attacker — and why a five-word passphrase beats eight random characters by four thousand times.

bits = length × log₂(alphabet)
Open

Subnet Calculator

Network and broadcast addresses, subnet mask, host range and usable-host counts for any IPv4 CIDR block — plus subnet splitting.

IPv4 · CIDR

Screen Size & Viewing Distance

How far to sit from a screen, and whether you would actually see the difference between 1080p, 4K and 8K from there — measured against your own eyesight.

PPD · PPI · 20/20 acuity · SMPTE & THX angles
Open

Bit Calculator

Convert between binary, hex, octal and decimal, flip bits by hand on a visual grid, and watch bitwise operations combine column by column.

AND · OR · XOR · shift · 8–64 bit
Open

Data Transfer Time Calculator

How long a download or upload takes at a given speed — movies, games, backups. Same math as the Speed Test use-cards.

size ÷ Mbps · efficiency
Open

Internet Speed Test

A real, live download and latency test with real-time graphs and a moving average — then what it means in 4K streams, movies and game downloads.
