How to Download and Store PS4 Games & Apps to an External Hard Drive

March 11, 2017 by TomBoyNI

With the release of firmware 4.5 for the Playstation 4, we, the gamers, now have a feature we have craved for a long time… the ability to download and store our games on an external hard drive. This means we now can keep our libraries intact and not have to worry abput what to delete or replace as our collection grows past the capacity of the built in storage.

Yay!

Minimum HDD spec

The most important thing to remember before you buy a new storage device – or try to use one you already own – is to make sure it meets the minimum requirements for use with your PS4:

Connection: USB 3.0 or later

Storage: 250GB (min) – 8TB (max)

Note: There is no guarantee that all USB storage devices are compatible with your system.

The Northern Ireland Game of Thrones Tour

March 3, 2017 by TomBoyNI

With biking season now rapidily approaching you may be thinking to yourself, ‘Where shall I go? What shall I do?’

The Northern Ireland Tourist board have an entire section of their website dedicated to GoT locations (and since I did their original tour they have updated it further):

https://www.discovernorthernireland.com/gameofthrones/

Northern Ireland - Game of Thrones Filming Locations — Northern Ireland – Game of Thrones Filming Locations

Personally I haven’t seen a single episode of Game of Thrones, crazy eh? But forgetting that each of these locations are simply stunning! The show has picked them for very obvious reasons and when you you see them for yourself you will understand why! Simply set the location into your satnav, and press the Winding Roads Button (if you are lucky enough to have one) and enjoy the ride, because you will absolutely enjoy the fnal destination!

Here is just a little taster for each location to wet your appitite, the rest I will leave up to you :

Motorcycle Winter Protection – ACF50, FS365 or WD40

October 21, 2017March 1, 2017 by TomBoyNI

Before going any further please read the following post :

https://tbni.blog/2017/03/01/the-ultimate-motorcycle-protection-acf50-v-xcp-rust-blocker/

The above covers the ACF50 product and its current number one condenter for the title of ultimate motorcycle protectant XCP Professional Rust Blocker.

So if that post holds the ‘considered’ top two products, why then the need for this post? Simply some people havent heard of the products above or have been fed mis-information on the use (or usefulness) of these others.

A few points from my own experience:

WD40 is brilliant, but not as a winter protection product for a motorcycle, please don’t be using it as that!
FS365 is a good product for frequent use, and by frequent I mean after ever ride, which can be quite costly.
Personally, I use ACF-50 and between applications or after a particularly wet ride out I then cold rinse the bike and give it a good liberal dose of FS365. I don’t know how necessary that is or isn’t but me me it has left my bikes spotless, winter after winter.

So the this test then is ACF50 v Scott Oiler FS365 and WD40, it was carried out by F2MCLTD who have kindly allowed me to link to their original experiment and findings :

The Ultimate Motorcycle Protection? ACF50 v XCP Rust Blocker

October 21, 2017March 1, 2017 by TomBoyNI

As I have mentioned, demonstrated (and used) I am a huge fan of ACF50 as the main protectant for my motorcycles. I have been using it for many years and the results still impress me, and make sure any time I am asked ‘what should I use’ I can give and honestly mean a hearty recommendation to ACF50.

However, like all things, products can be improved upon (or worsen with revisions), can be changed, even new products can take an undisputed crown, and for that reason it is important to stay on top of any new developments in the market and keep an eye open for anything new that is making waves.

One such product at the moment seems to be… XCP PRofessional Rust Blocker.

XCP Porfessional Rust Blocker — XCP Rust Blocker

So the big question is, ‘Is this the product to throw ACF50 of its throne?
