Pros: Light, yet powerful and fast. Very little bloatware. Hot swapable HDD caddy. The 1TB mechanical drive is a HGST HTS721010A9E630. The WiFi card is a Intel 910 series.
Cons: Build quality could be better, terrible light bleed on the top half of the display. Num lock at boot doesn't work properly or windows is turning it off. No Num lock or caps led. The fans at full speed sound like a 1u server. Documentation is terrible.(15 pages). 15GB of the SSD is a hidden recovery image, should be on the mechanical drive in my opinion.
Overall Review: If you buy this don't bother downloading updates from the manufacturer's website while you wait on shipping. They are all out of date. You have to use the gigabyte smartupdate app to get the actual updates. (Pro tip: the smart update app caches them in a temp folder, in it's install folder prior to installation. Back them up before installation, the app deletes them after install.) Windows 8 secure boot is enabled, you can delete the keys and restore them at will. I did to clone the ssd with clonezilla. Waiting a bit before trying dual boot. The SSD is a LITEONIT LMT-128L9M

Comments: Excellent enclosure. A must if you are a repair on location tech. I put a old 60 Gig Maxtor Drive in this enclosure. It does get a little warm but it is not ment to be on all the time. Loaded it with drivers, diagnosic software, and Autopatcher files (Love those Autopatcher guys). Works Great!
Good replacement

Comments: I was Looking for a board to replace a motherboard that came from one of those 2/3 letter prefab PC companies. So I had a P4 2.4 w/ 400mhz FSB and a Stick of 266 memory. Old board did not have a AGP slot either. I was lucky enough to find a board with these three items in mind. My first try using Epox and seems to be a solid board. Works Perfect for what I needed it to.

Comments: Excellent Fans, I bought 4 of these to use in 2 CPUs. (They are Exhaust fans only) I got these to replace Antec Smart fans that were 3 years old and screaming loud. I'm was so sick of paying big money for a product that doesn't last or perform well. I saw the 6 year warranty and I was sold. I was not disappointed, these fans are very quiet.
Fantastic Service
Extremely fast shipping, with great prices.
