This review is from: ASUS H87M-PRO LGA 1150 Intel H87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 uATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: Installed Windows 8, booted up and went to work.
I use the onboard video and it's more than enough for what I do which is watch youtube videos, play a few games on Onlive.com and remote tech support.
Has worked since day 1 with never ever as much as a hiccup. I would build more systems based on this kind of experience. See my setup in other thoughts
Cons: None I can think of. You can read the specs for yourself so I won't go into how many ports or how much memory or other details. It just works.

High failure rates

This review is from: OCZ Vertex 4 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) VTX4-25SAT3-256G
Pros: Fast
Cons: I tried to review my 120gb OCZ driver but it is no longer sold. Still, after reading about the failure rates in the newegg reviews I see that high failure rates are still an issue. I too read the reviews and figured if mine failed I would just send it back. Well, I bought two of them less than two years ago. I had them in RAID 0. One failed and I sent it back, they returned it and I rebuilt my system. Then the other failed, I sent it back, they returned it and I rebuilt my system, then....the unthinkable, the first one I sent back failed again. This time I threw it in the trash. No more OCZ for me. To all of you considering their products, please take not of the failure rates and don't think it can't happen to you.

Bought 2 and both failed after a year
06/02/2012
This review is from: OCZ Vertex 2 2.5" 55GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD2-2VTXE60G
Pros: Fast newegg shipping, faster than a mech hard drive
Cons: I purchased 2 of these and configured RAID 0.
One died after a year, sent it back and reinstalled windows, a few months later the other one died, sent it back, took both of returned drives and sold them on Craigslist. Mechanical drives have been so so so much more reliable.
I never worried too much about OS backup until I started using SSD drives. Now I run Acronis and keep 4 weeks worth of C: drive backups on my mirrored data drive.
