Most Favorable Review

Surprisingly easy to transfer existing boot drive to this one.

Samsung 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E1T0B/AM
Samsung 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E1T0B/AM

Pros: -I expected to have some issues cloning my failing 2.5" mechanical drive to this one (it was failing, after all) but it was quite simple. I can't express how much I appreciate that. I used it in a spare enclosure since I was replacing the main drive in a laptop and it was plug and play.

Cons: -None so far. -Except maybe don't buy it at the current price. I got it on sale for less than 60 bucks in 2023 (1TB). Unless that's because of inflation, in which case, that sucks, although I think the time frame is wrong for that to be true.

Overall Review: -I've had it for a year as the replacement boot drive in my old laptop, and so far I'm very pleased. After my second mechanical 2.5" 1TB drive died, I decided that maybe something that was more shock and motion resistant was in order. Especially because I'm that person who doesn't always hibernate my laptop before I put it in the case and accidentally hit it against multiple objects. And the best part is now that old laptop is much faster, too! Win-win. -No issues with compatibility even though I was putting it in a laptop with Windows 7 Home and a legacy BIOS.

Quit after 3.5 years

PC Power & Cooling ModXStream Pro Series 600 Watt 80+ Semi-Modular Active PFC Performance Grade ATX PC Power Supply (OCZ600MXSP)
PC Power & Cooling ModXStream Pro Series 600 Watt 80+ Semi-Modular Active PFC Performance Grade ATX PC Power Supply (OCZ600MXSP)

Pros: It worked well while it worked. I wrote a positive review last year, unfortunately.

Cons: It only worked for 3 and a half years (3 year warranty), then it just completely stopped working. At least it didn't ruin any of my components; it just suddenly ceased to function.

Overall Review: I guess the short warranty should've been a warning.

Just what I needed

2.4GHz 5GHz Dual Band 8 dBi WiFi Antenna, Omni SMA WiFi Antenna Magnetic Base with (200cm/6.66ft )Extension Cable giyqxHw

Pros: No problems with setup Much longer antenna cable allows me to route it behind my desk and place it higher Having the antenna up higher has vastly increased my Wi-Fi speeds

Cons: The product page looks a little sketchy? Turned out just fine though

Overall Review: I would recommend this to anyone who needs a longer antenna than the one included with their Wi-Fi adapter.

Just what I needed

Weastlinks M.2 M Key NVME PCIe to USB 3.1 Front Panel Expansion Board Card 10Gb TYPE-E + 5Gb 20 Pins 2 Port USB3.0 Adapter Hub Riser for PC
Weastlinks M.2 M Key NVME PCIe to USB 3.1 Front Panel Expansion Board Card 10Gb TYPE-E + 5Gb 20 Pins 2 Port USB3.0 Adapter Hub Riser for PC

Pros: - Love the ability to add the USB 3.0/C through an extra M.2 slot---since modern motherboards come with quite a few.

Cons: - Would knock off half an egg if I could for the fact that the connector for the power cable doesn't stay flat on the PCB if you are using something like an M.2 clip instead of a screw. Of course, it looks like the pins are still well soldered and the power delivery itself is seemingly unaffected.

Overall Review: - Nicely packaged for the international journey, got a cute free tiny screwdriver AND an M.2 screw, quality seems decent and works perfectly so far. Oh, and they include an adapter for the floppy connector to SATA in case your PSU doesn't have any of the floppy style peripheral endings.

Nice affordable RAM

Crucial 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR5 4800 (PC5 38400) Desktop Memory Model CT2K8G48C40U5
Crucial 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR5 4800 (PC5 38400) Desktop Memory Model CT2K8G48C40U5

Pros: - Getting the promised speeds even before XMP was enabled (probably because 4800 is natively supported, but still) - Affordable

Overall Review: - Nice solid RAM without bells and whistles for that completely opaque case, and priced to match. Still has decent performance, at least so far. No issues at all. Although other people have mentioned it . . . DDR5 is not fun to insert. Not a fan.

Very nice cables

DARKROCK 2 Pack PC Fan Extension 1 to 3 Converter Cable, 4 Pin PWM Fan Splitter - Black
DARKROCK 2 Pack PC Fan Extension 1 to 3 Converter Cable, 4 Pin PWM Fan Splitter - Black

Pros: - Sleeved - Not too long - 4-pin output

Cons: - The end of the sleeve has tubing or something similar that isn't well attached to the connector end and can come loose when pulled on; but it goes back into place neatly and the wires themselves are unaffected

Overall Review: - Packaging is really nice. A few pins were a bit crooked but a tiny adjustment and they were good to go. Both cables function as they should. Fit for fan connectors is tight but not too tight, which was ideal for my build as it was SFF and there wasn't a lot of room and they could get tugged on.
