Pros: So far I have no reason to doubt that this disk works normally, just as any other external disk.

Cons: I'm using it as external disk on a TWC DVR (Explorer 8240HDC), and the DVR is flaky since I connected the disk. Twice in less than two months it needed a full reset, each time with also resetting (and reformatting) the external disk. Besides this being a general pain to do (the boot on this thing takes forever... ok, at least some 15 min), the recordings since adding the disk are always lost. However, I'm not sure whether this is a problem with the disk, the DVR, or the compatibility between the two.

Overall Review: Is advertised as a boxed processor with manufacturer warranty. Comes as a tray processor (according to Intel) in a box that is made to look like a legitimate boxed processor, without warranty from Intel.

Pros: Good price.

Cons: Stopped working after 2 weeks.

Overall Review: I hope the replacement works better.
