Best Precision Tool set.

Xcelite Precision Screwdriver Set,Sl/Ph,6 pcs.  XP600
Xcelite Precision Screwdriver Set,Sl/Ph,6 pcs. XP600

Pros: I did not purchase this set from Newegg, but a local store. To start, I love the handle. the top of the handle fits in your palm and rotates; It's great to speed up driving and extracting screws. The metal tips are durable; with not too much wear from 7 + years of use. I'm trying to find a handled hex bolt version. This is also available in a torx bit set.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I would recommend these to anyone. Just don't try using them for prying. I'm purchasing another set because my room mate bent mine. They're durable, not indestructable.

Most Critical Review

Worst Drive I have ever owned

Seagate FreeAgent Pro ST310005FPA1E3-RK 1TB 7200 RPM USB 2.0 / IEEE 1394a (Dual FireWire 400 interface module)/ eSATA External Hard Drive
Seagate FreeAgent Pro ST310005FPA1E3-RK 1TB 7200 RPM USB 2.0 / IEEE 1394a (Dual FireWire 400 interface module)/ eSATA External Hard Drive

Pros: It worked, long enough to back up my media library, and back up my computer. It glows yellow, if you like that sort of thing.

Cons: After using this drive over the past 2 months it has heated up quickly. I shortened my intervals of using this drive due to this. At first it had issues reading files. THen it would show files being present, but then stating they were no longer available. Now it's not recognized by Windows, and no files are recoverable. What's the point of external 1TB storage if your cannot trust it as a backup?

Overall Review: What were they thinking when they gave this thing a 5 year warranty? I would like it replaced, but why would I go through this again with another subpar drive? What happened to Seagates quality?
