Most Critical Review

Getting 11-16Mbps actual

Pros: Easy setup, configure utility straightfoward. Getting better than my wireless G network even after the cons.

Cons: Says it should sync in 10 secs.. sometimes it takes a few minutes when I was plugging in multiple outlets to test. Not near the 60Mbps others were reporting.

Overall Review: I have a 3 yr old house. This is the first powerline product I have used. I guess from my results I have some interference on my copper. I tried about 8 different outlets in my house. I got actuals from 5Mbps(2 floors upstairs)-16(outlet in the same room).

Good bang for buck

Nice in the end

Pros: Can handle lots of SATA drives (AHCI mode, NCQ mode too). Overclocking is excellent, even from windows.

Cons: Cannot boot from IDE CDROM only "falls back" to it if hard drive isn't formated. I needed to borrow a USB CDROM to install windows to get this to work. Also needed XP SP2 (I had original upgrade discs).

Overall Review: Bios 15 works much better with standby. Headaches to install windows almost drove me nuts (even though I hit F6 and put all the drivers in)

Excellent for the price

Pros: Looks sleek, large capacity for drives, screwless. Comes with two fans, multiple sounds plug options to hook up front microphone and headphones. Front USB and firewire worked excellent.

Cons: Didn't like the drive bay locks, were about the cheapest part to the whole thing.
