Pros: I purchased 3 of these from a local vendor. The older systems I put them into are still running Windows XP. Performance improvement was very noticeable on these systems, and I don't have to deal with issues of alignment that SSDs have on XP. Great cost savings compared to my normally installing an Intel or Samsung SSD for TRIM support.

Cons: I don't trust UPS for delivering hard drives

Other Thoughts: I will post again if there are any issues with the drives, but 3 months, and they're still performing well.

These are very tiny drives and have to be packaged well. That's why I purchased them from a local vendor, since I don't trust how UPS delivers packages.

Pros: This board has proven to be a reliable workhorse since I first purchased two in 2008. It's now 2013, and they're both working fine. I purchased it primarily for AGP support, as well as PATA and SATA-2

Cons: It's a combo board that only has 2 DDR2,and 2 DDR memory slots. It only supports up to DDR2-667. It can't be overclocked very well.

Other Thoughts: I was thinking of buying a couple more of these boards recently to provide a home for some E2160, and unfortunately they're no longer available. Although there appears to be another ASRock board that has AGP PATA (but only DDR and SATA -1150) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157338
