Intel SSD Scavenger Hunt  

post #1 of 133
Thread Starter 
Hello all!

We're excited to announce that we've once again partnered with Intel to bring you a great chance to win some gear, and this time, we're doing it with a twist!


This contest is going to be a scavenger hunt - each week for the next 4 weeks, this post will feature a question relating to Intel's SSD offerings. The answer to the question can be found on Intel's website (we'll provide a few helpful links to guide you in the right direction). When you find the answer to the question, don't post it here! PM your answer to the user Intel Contest with the following format:

Subject: OCN USERNAME ONLY – NO ADDITIONAL TEXT
Body: Answer to the question. Since you will be sending 4 PMs in total, please send each new message as a reply to your previous message. You must send one answer each week to be eligible to win - sending all the answers at the end of the contest won't count!

Here are some helpful links to get you started on your Intel journey:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/ssd-330-brief.html?wapkw=price+value+solid+state
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/ssd-330-specification.html
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/solid-state-drives-330-series.html

The fourth question, for which your answers are due by midnight EST on September 10th, is the following:
Quote:
Did Intel conduct a recent price change for lower cost and higher value options for Intel Solid-State Drives? True or False

For Canadian residents, please also include the answer to the following in one of your PMs:
What is 100 divided by 4 plus 5?

At the end of the contest, we'll select 3 qualifying members to receive a 120gb, 520 Series SSD from Intel. "Qualifying" is to mean that you've submitted a correct answer to each week's question during the week that question was active, and at no point did you post any of the answers in this thread. Due to the volume of PMs, please do not expect any response PMs from 'Intel Contest' until after the scavenger hunt has ended. Full terms and conditions.

Good luck and happy hunting! thumb.gif

Thanks Chipp! Just a reminder that responses though NOT be posted within this thread as we don't want to give the answers away. Do feel free to leave a general message of excitement at the chance for a brand spanking new Intel 520 Series SSD thumb.gif

I'd like to give props to the team for realizing that the Canadian question can be solved by bidmas or no bidmas and made one that has the same answer either way. Well done thumb.gif

Just a question about this contest. The questions being asked are just questions? Or are they actually written on the helpful links provided?

All questions can be answered using the helpful links to Intel's website. Hopefully you'll be able to find the answer each week - when you do, don't forget to send in your 4 PMs to user 'Intel Contest'
