Quiet and fast

Seagate BarraCuda 7200.10 ST3160815A 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Seagate BarraCuda 7200.10 ST3160815A 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Quiet and fast for ATA 100, hope this new technology in hardrives it is as Good as the are Claiming? The old technology Hardrive is rock solid,I still have the original 40 gig from 2002 and it still works fine!

Cons: Only formatted at 127 Gig with downloaded Seagate software or Disk Manager in Windows 2000 pro. Used older Seagate software on FLOPPY DISK, and BAM 149 Gig like it sould be.

Overall Review: using a Socket A 2400+ Athlon,in a Asus A7N266-VM Motherboard with the Newest Bios installed, not good enough? bypassed the Bios limitation with the floppy disk software. Lots of space now!

EDIMAX EW-7628IG MIMO Wireless LAN Card IEEE 802.11b/g 32-bit PCI Up to 54Mbps Wireless Data Rates
EDIMAX EW-7628IG MIMO Wireless LAN Card IEEE 802.11b/g 32-bit PCI Up to 54Mbps Wireless Data Rates

Pros: CHEAP and It does work and it is Ralinks best attempt in the wifi market. Atheros chipset is by far better!! harder to find but worth the extra $. works GOOD at close to medium range, long range is POOR! have a Edimax PCI card with a Atheros chipset Smokes this one for 5 $ more get that one, and only one antenna!

Cons: Range is only fair, better than other Ralink chipset cards, but even with 3 yes 3 12 dbi antennas, still only so-so, was getting dropped signals left and right, low signal and Quality. broadcom chipsets blow this away also!! My D-link high-powered Atheros chipset Card kills this one big time!!

Overall Review: MIMO Cards are overrated go with Atheros or broadcom chipset? look at the pictures some times they cover the Chip, these are usally Broadcom I think? Ralink needs to UP THERE POWER OUTPUT, for starters.

something just not right

ASUS PCE-N10 802.11n Wi-Fi N150 PCIe Adapter
ASUS PCE-N10 802.11n Wi-Fi N150 PCIe Adapter

Pros: Seemed powerful with big external antenna I added and I was able to download some of the updates I needed, big downloads like video drivers no way tried for days thought it was a cable or something else? Really like ASUS to bad I waited more than 30 days newegg says to bad no RMA! was cheap, Rosewill cheaper! beter we will see?MIGHT BUY ANOTHER 1 too ASUS is my first choice! usally???

Cons: just like other reviews drops for no reason over and over again sure I have a bad one. added a 500 mw booster did nothing to increase signal or help with dropping signal(STRANGE signal stayed EXACTLY the same). NO new driver from ASUS either same as included.

Overall Review: windows 7 64 bit Asus motherboard thought it would match up good ordered a Rosewill to replace this 1 with they seem to work good with boosters never tried an Asus wifi card before

works with my "N" card too 802.11 b/g/n whatever

HAWKING HSB2 Hi-Gain WiFi Signal Booster
HAWKING HSB2 Hi-Gain WiFi Signal Booster

Pros: Take that underpowered Ra*ink card and and make a it powerhouse. this booser can only help so much if your card is junk then amplifi that times 5 not so bad put a high power card in there and BAM you got a serious wifi

Cons: needs a bigger antenna this 1 is way to small have a 12 dbi cube antenna that rocks what happened to Atheros? they were the best now gone?

Overall Review: owned this booster for 5 years now upgraded my Engeni*s super g to Rosewil* "N" and disapointing till this booster was hooked up

Engenius does it again

EnGenius EUB9603H Wireless Adapter with 5dBi antenna 600mW High Power USB 2.0
EnGenius EUB9603H Wireless Adapter with 5dBi antenna 600mW High Power USB 2.0

Pros: got this for my laptop blows away the onboard wifi is also a "N". went from 5 people to 23 with the 5 dbi antenna. COOL The "N" seems to have less dropoffs and slightly faster data transfer over the super g

Cons: not much improvment from bigger antennas hooked up a 14dbi backfire slight gain. even my Huge 24 dbi only slight gain a 7-9 dbi antenna at biggest is what this doggle is optimized for. 27 people is all i got over the little 5 dbi that came with it ??? The mhz is still 2.4 so ???????/is the "N" antenna special or what

Overall Review: have the Engenius 600 mw super g pci ard in my PC and it also kick as* over any other card I got add a 500 mw booster and BAM really works good with big antennas. 2000 mw dogle not beating my 1100mw PC in range but it STAYS hooked up!!! more relieable.
