Most Critical Review
Mach Xtreme MX LX series USB 3.0 Pen Drive - 128GB, Read/Write: 220MB/Sec, 130MB/Sec

Pros: The drive is fast (when it works).

Cons: Drive is overheating, even with forced cool air blowing on it. The result is that it keeps getting disconnected and reconnected. I had to use the Adata recovery program to restore it to a working condition. It will randomly, but frequently disconnect and reconnect. I tried using this drive in many different computers, same result. To say it is blazing fast might be an understatement. I'm afraid it will cause a fire!

Overall Review: The mfr website is useless in trying to solve any problems.

Nice while it lasted

Pros: When it worked, it seemed to work fine.

Cons: Completely failed after one week of intermittent usage. I tried every disc utility I own trying to revive it but no luck. For the price I expected it to last longer.

It works, well sort of...

Pros: It works, well sort of...

Cons: No flexibility at all in naming your backups. You either do it their way or no way. Each year for the past six years I have purchased the newest version of acronis home backup. Somewhere acronis lost their way. I was hoping they would find their way back. But I was wrong, I give up on them and will pass up anymore new versions. Time to checkout other backup solutions on the market.

Overall Review: Acronis ruined a pretty decent product. Time to move on.
