Very Impressed

AMS DS-116TL 3.5" Tray-less SATA Removable Rack for HDD
AMS DS-116TL 3.5" Tray-less SATA Removable Rack for HDD

Pros: I have purchased two of these AMS DS116TL's in the part month. They fell solid, are well-built, and well-designed.. They simply work as advertised ... which is a very good thing. I find them to be useful.

Cons: I honestly cannot think of any ... for $24 it's hard to find anything this useful

Overall Review: You can even boot from drives inserted into these AMS trays ... a bit of a surprise for me ... but yet very useful.

Memory Channel Failure - Same problem as others have reported.

Overall Review: This motherboard has 4 memory slots ... A1, A2, B1, B2. I have two G. Skill memory modules from the Asus Memory Compatibility List. The motherboard will not boot with a memory module in A1 or A2. I have updated the BIOS to the latest version and attempted every memory module configuration the I can imagine. All with no success. It appears that this board has a bad memory channel.

Works as advertised.

Overall Review: Easy to install, easy to use, running at the appropriate speed ... much to like!
