Most Favorable Review

Simple installation and setup

SYBA SI-PEX40057 PCI-Express 2.0 x2 Low Profile SATA III (6.0 Gb/s) 4-port RAID Card
SYBA SI-PEX40057 PCI-Express 2.0 x2 Low Profile SATA III (6.0 Gb/s) 4-port RAID Card

Pros: Has bracket for low-profile case Comes with cables Works with Windows 10 RAID setup was easy Online docs are good for Windows

Cons: They have 2 websites syba.com and sybausa.com use the latter http://www.sybausa.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=64_77_86&product_id=183&filter=38 It took me about 10-15 minutes to find, download and update the driver -1 egg for website(s) You are a business, fix your websites!

Overall Review: Once installed it worked fine, it was being installed as a RAID 1 controller. I would recommend it for a RAID controller on a PC. Not sure of the speed reduction of a RAID 10 setup. RAID 1 test was 5.2 Gb/s

Works for VGA

IOGEAR GCS1722 2 Port VGA KVM Switch w/ PS2 & USB
IOGEAR GCS1722 2 Port VGA KVM Switch w/ PS2 & USB

Pros: Sturdy box and has ports for a PS/2 or USB connection.

Cons: Another customer said cables were 4' and manufacturer said approximately 4' mine were 3' and about 2' too short. One computer had DVI and the other was VGA. I put a DVI/VGA adapter and that did not work the screen was fuzzy. Moved it to another 2 computer setup with both VGA adapters and the video was fine the 3' cables are still an issue but workable, there is no play in cable at all. It does not say in the product description and I didn't see the review that the other customer posted on the cable length. I just don't understand why you would not give 6' cables.

Overall Review: It arrived with no power supply upon reading the manual it said it was not needed. Box is powered by the USB. With is one less plug and cable. Don't purchase if you need to use a DVI/VGA adapter on either computer. I would give it 5 stars if the cables were longer.

Awesome Case

Pros: The bays, the ability to reconfigure two drive cages to having fans on side or in front. The fans that come stock (3) 120's and (1) 240. All the rubber shock pads to dampen vibrations. The fact that it is made of sturdy steal. The bag of screws, although, there were a few missing according to the manual. The adapters for wiring the front panel. The ascetic design of the case and front ports which include eSATA. Tool/Parts bin in bottom bay. Two handles for carrying case, one center and one at rear.

Cons: The manual is almost worthless except for figuring out some screw sizes. There is a cross brace bar that needs to be removed to move the two drive cages with fans to the front. It weighs in at around 31 lbs. empty.

Overall Review: There are only a few minor design changes I would have made but, overall this is one AWESOME case! Hands down the best one I have ever purchased. It was $149 on sale. I wasn't sure if I wanted a full-tower or mid-tower when I was ready to purchase and I am glad I went with this one. I watched the video review then knew this was the case.

K132

Acer K132 LED Portable Projector HDMI 1280x800 3D-ready 500 ANSI Lumens 10000:1 3D-ready
Acer K132 LED Portable Projector HDMI 1280x800 3D-ready 500 ANSI Lumens 10000:1 3D-ready

Pros: Very sharp and clear image even with room lights on. The manual focus was easy to use and I was able to accurately focus the image area. The menu has a lot of choices and there is even one for a screen color adjustment. I caught it on sale for $349 so that was a super great price. It comes with a variety of cables and a carrying pouch for the unit but you are on your own for the accessories.

Cons: There are two different models in the instruction pamphlet. This is the one that only has an HDMI input. It only has a small speaker and no audio out. I would rather process the sound form the feeding component and an audio system except when on the road. The built in speaker sounds a little tinny but, acceptable. The unit does get rather warm, I thought that the LED would run cooler

Overall Review: A case that would hold the cables as well would be nice. A USB or SD input would be a great addition along with a mini-stereo jack. I do not currently have any 3D stuff to test that with so, I do not know how well that works
