SpiderMan?

EVERCOOL SFF-12 Case Cooling Fan
EVERCOOL SFF-12 Case Cooling Fan

Pros: I bought 2 and both are quite. They really move the air around in the case. Drop case temp by about 10 degrees and even helped the proc temp, by about 2 degrees. I recommend this highly. Would have given a 5 if not for the filter and packaging waste.

Cons: Packages is lame and the filters are completely useless. Could drop the cost if they didn't have to pay royalties for spiderman and didnt include the filters.

Most Critical Review

Hardly worked right from the start.

Sans Digital 4-Bay eSATA RAID 0/1/10/5/JBOD Tower Storage Enclosure w/ 6G PCIe Card TR4M+B (Black)
Sans Digital 4-Bay eSATA RAID 0/1/10/5/JBOD Tower Storage Enclosure w/ 6G PCIe Card TR4M+B (Black)

Pros: Inexpensive and easy to work with. Great for its price

Cons: Tends to drop drives and requires a reboot to get them back online.

Overall Review: Purchased in May 2013 and it now only sees drives in the first bay. If I put any other drives in it, it won't work at all. Worked great for the first 6 weeks with 3TB drives. Then started dropping drives 2 and 3 requireing a reboot of the system. Now in October it quit working. Removed drives 2 and 3 and it will now read bay one. Bays 2, 3 and 4 and useless. Was never even able to get to setup any raid due to it constantly dropping drives. Basically its a $150 HD external case right now.. Have sent several emails on it dropping drives with no response. Have tried to call but only get round and round with their phone system. Going to try one more time to email. After that is in the trash and I'll never buy from them again.

Very Poor QC

Sans Digital 4-Bay eSATA RAID 0/1/10/5/JBOD Tower Storage Enclosure w/ 6G PCIe Card TR4M+B (Black)

Pros: Don't know. Haven't been able to use it to its full capacity since I bought it

Cons: Doesn't work.

Overall Review: This is my second review since I cant update my first. As of now Im giving it a 1 egg because I can't give it zero Eggs. I Purchased in May and it Broke in July, took until October to get ahold of support. I was about to talk to an attorney when they finally replied to my emails. Had to troubleshoot with them for a week. They finally agreed it need to be repaired so they told me I had to return an in warranty item to them at my cost to ship the device for repair. I run a business If I ever told the customer that they had to pay for shipping a warranty repair I'd loose business. This is the only company I've every had require this. Dell, HP, Western Digital all sent a replacement and I would ship it back in that box. Today I received the device back on December 10th and it still doesn't work. The device will only see the drive in Bay 1, and if you put more then one drive in the device it wont see anything. same as before, and the reason why I payed to send it in for repair. It says that it suppose to come with the card but I never received one to start with. I've tried to use this on several computers but they all do the same thing as I described. Should have saved up and got the Synology or a D-Link. At least with them if the item was defective I would have gotten a replacement by now and been up and running.

Just like the other 50%

Seagate BarraCuda 7200.11 ST31500341AS 1.5TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Seagate BarraCuda 7200.11 ST31500341AS 1.5TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Its a huge drive.

Cons: Not reliable, very unstable and locks up. Drive started locking up and giving w/r error. Reformated and had issues partition the drive. Drive finally died during backup and killed my backup. Lost everything.

Overall Review: Seagate just needs to do a recall on this drive. From what I have researched on this drive it has a failure rate of over 50%.

Great

Nippon Labs Premium 0.5M (1.64 ft.) SATA Cable with 2 Right Angle Connectors for SATA I and SATA II Hard Drive 1.64ft Model SATA-0.5RR 1.64 feet
Nippon Labs Premium 0.5M (1.64 ft.) SATA Cable with 2 Right Angle Connectors for SATA I and SATA II Hard Drive 1.64ft Model SATA-0.5RR 1.64 feet

Pros: The right angles make it a great fit for a side mounted connections on my motherboard. I recommend getting these and the 1 right angle cables.

Cons: Cant stack them because of the right angle. have to use a straight then a right, which really isn't a con just a design flaw of my MB.
