Great case for the price

Pros: Cheap, but good quality. Solid metal. Panels fit great. Nice drive bays and size. Looks great too.
Cons: No fancy wire management solutions but that's to be expected on a cheap case. The back panel is silver, I'd like it to be black. The beeper is strange sounding but I usually don't connect it. Didn't come with many screws (just motherboard stand offs and matching screws to hold motherboard.. but because drive bays are quick disconnect it was enough to finish the built.
Overall Review: Great value, would buy again. I love the minimalistic look with no fancy "alien" stuff.
8/14 Are bad. 1 completely dead

Pros: Cheap, low power, quiet.
Cons: We purchased 14 of these units from various suppliers. -1 was completely dead after some days of operation (does not power up, LED's are all off). -3 had a strange problem with the lan port where computer can be discovered and pingebut cannot be accessed. Fixed by swapping motherboard. -5 Had severe serial port issues. of those, 3 had it on both external and internal header port. All of the above issues were fixed by replacing the motherboard with the remaining hardware/os install being intact so the issues are definitely in the motherboard. Also, most of the 14 units think they are booted for the first time and take forever to POST on every boot. These are used in embedded systems so the long POST times cause 2-3 minute long boots into a completely stripped down XP Embedded build which is unacceptable. Also, this board overheats inside passively cooled case, requires case fan. I am able to run another type of Micro-ITX fanless board (different brand) in a nearly sealed e
Overall Review: Why is it under server motherboards? Having two lan ports does not make up for cheap build quality and so many issues. These boards feel like ticking time bombs.
Great cooler, pain to assemble

Pros: Affordable, Looks great, Very Quiet, Good Size
Cons: Instructions are not very good and it would be much easier to use the dinky wire things that hold the fan in place if there were two of me (one for each side). It was a big pain and took way too long. I own better Thermaltake 120mm cpu cooler in a similar price range. It was easy to put on but took every ounce of concentration and dexterity (that I did not want to spend at the moment :) Also not sure how I feel about the top mounting plate that is held by four black screws. One of the screws literally pushed itself out of its hole to the side while being lightly tightened.
Overall Review: Great product but not quite completely there as far as design goes.
Great Drive

Pros: Affordable, Huge storage capacity, Quiet, Performs well in RAID configuration. Zero failure rate for 4 of these 4tb and 2 3tb.
Cons: No cons.
Overall Review: Thank you!
Good little amp for the buck

Pros: Cheap, I was skeptical about it because Boss is sort of one of those names that makes me cringe. The truth is it's a pretty nice amp. I am not sure if it delivers the promised 1800 RMS watts because I'm powering a much less power hungry sub, but it definitely drives that to full excursion. The little remote that came with it to control amplitude is useful. The amp looks good too, it looks like an electronic box instead of an over-glorified backlit plastic shiny accessory that most amps thrive for today.
Cons: The bottom plate is pretty thin and not supported so it could rattle if not mounted well.
Overall Review: I would recommend this little amp. I am not sure if anything can beat the bang for the buck. I mean even if the amp actually produces a sustained 500 RMS instead of the promised 1800 watts RMS it's still worth the money to me.
Killer Laptop

Pros: Very fast. It has a great display and very nice built in speakers which fill the room (which I don't use). Has extra memory and hard drive slots. Great keyboard with nice backlight.
Cons: Terrible touchpad. Pretty unusable. The "Warranty Void" sticker is concerning but I had to send back for repairs and they fixed the lap to no problem and just put a new one on. The case is very weak underneath... I can't imagine this laptop handling a drop well if at all. It's also huge and the power supply is too (as it needs to be) so this is not really portable.
Overall Review: Even with a few cons this has been a very solid system so far. Bloatware was easy to get rid of mostly brining the Windows 8 OS back to stock. Great features but you do pay and arm and a leg for them.
