This iPad Mini deal is good, but you should still avoid it

If you've been perusing the Fourth of July sales for ways to get the iPad mini (2021) for cheap, then you may have spotted the 64GB version on offer, as it's newly down to $409. However, we're here to tell you to avoid it.

This deal is live on Amazon and Walmart, including other places, but it's actually nothing new - we've been seeing the tablet go down to this price many times before, including during deals seasons like Black Friday, but at other times too.

That's a fine discount for the tablet, but we could see it hit a new low soon. Amazon Prime Day is coming up in just a week, and the iPad mini (2021) is likely to see a better discount then. And even if it doesn't, it'll likely see a price match at least.

So if you really need a new iPad mini right now, maybe you should go for the tablet - but if not, we'd recommend you wait.

In our iPad mini (2021) review we called it a "powerful device with a crisp smaller screen" and gave it four stars out of five overall.

We praised it for its compact design, as well as its powerful chipset and the fact it brought a storage jump over the 2019 model.

However we weren't as keen on its battery life which was sub-par, the fact its 5G connectivity was limited, and that it doesn't come with any keyboard or stylus accessory (so that'd cost you more).

Like any device, it's a good tablet if you can get it at a good price, and hopefully Prime Day will bring just that discount.

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It?

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It? On every Windows drive—even external USB drives—you’ll find a “System Volume Information” folder. You’ll only see it if you have Windows set to  show hidden files and folders , but it’s always there. So what is it for? Why Can’t I Open the Folder? On drives formatted with  the NTFS file system , this folder’s permissions are set to prevent everyone from accessing the folder, even users with Administrator permissions. Double-click the folder and you’ll see an error message saying the “location is not available” and “access is denied.” This is normal. That’s because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions. What Is It For? Among other things, Windows stores  System Restore points  in the System Volume

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side , DigiTech Geeks Mobile Computing News

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side The Black Friday iPad deals are never any good, but in 2021 they've somehow failed to clear that laughably low bar, and we've still been surprised by just how poor the Apple-tablet discounts are this year. Seriously – we're talking just $50 / £50 off super-power iPad Pros , and sometimes no discounts at all on entry-level or Mini tablets – and this outlook very likely won't change for the Cyber Monday iPad deals . If you were wanting to buy a new iPad in the Black Friday sales, it might seem like you're plum out of luck. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for deals in your region). It's not all bad news though, not as long as you're willing to try new things (and aren't committed to the Apple ecosystem already). That's because there are a few worthy tablet Black Friday deals on Android slates that make them much, much more tempting than an iPad. Sure, sure, sure: i
