Most Favorable Review

Super fast, love SSD now

Crucial M500 CT240M500SSD1 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Crucial M500 CT240M500SSD1 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Pros: Put this SSD in a mini ITX build. Boots into Win 7 Pro super quick (windows logo shows for 2 sec at most). Love how lightweight SSD is and works well inside my ITX build.

Cons: Nothing yet.

Overall Review: Came with a spacer which I do not use. First time using a SSD and love it. Looking to use SSD speed within virtual machines I setup in my system.

Most Critical Review

Good but not reliable

Galaxy METAL GEAR Metal Gear Box II 3506UEP-Silver 3.5" Silver IDE USB 2.0 & 1394a External Enclosure
Galaxy METAL GEAR Metal Gear Box II 3506UEP-Silver 3.5" Silver IDE USB 2.0 & 1394a External Enclosure

Pros: Very versatile, allowing easy removal of hard drives to be swapped, cool, "gamer" style enclosure

Cons: noisy, not reliable, failed on me after 8 months of use, emailed Galaxy tech support for replacement, haven't heard from them...

Overall Review: Good while it lasted, wish it was more reliable

Great mouse pad, excellent value

VicTsing Gaming Mouse Mat Pad, 260×210×2mm Dimension Stitched Edges Mouse Pad with Premium-Textured Surface, Non-slip Rubber Base, Laser & Optical Mouse Compatible.
VicTsing Gaming Mouse Mat Pad, 260×210×2mm Dimension Stitched Edges Mouse Pad with Premium-Textured Surface, Non-slip Rubber Base, Laser & Optical Mouse Compatible.

Pros: Really slick, cloth surface. This makes cleaning really easy. I just brush off crumbs. The mouse pad is the perfect size, about Letter size like a paper printout. I like how the edge is stitched for durability. The purchase came in a 2-pack so it's a great value.

Cons: What was advertised in the photo was one mouse pad with a "outer space" design and the other mouse pad as solid black. Both came in solid black. Not a big deal but I was looking forward to the unique graphic. The product page photo needs to be updated.

Overall Review: Highly recommend this purchase as it was such a great deal coming in a 2-pack and of high quality.

Basic Retractable USB 3.1 Gen 1 Thumbdrive

Transcend JetFlash 790 64GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive TS64GJF790K
Transcend JetFlash 790 64GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive TS64GJF790K

Pros: I like the exterior styling of the USB Thumbdrive -black with blue colored accent on the slide-out button. I also like how it has a label on the drive that states the capacity (64 GB). It is easy to retract in/out the USB plug as it takes small pressure to press down and push out. I am not too concerned about the speeds since all I will be using it for is to copy files off my Android phone and Chromebook for backup. No problems reformatting out-of-box since my Android phone immediately recognized the drive.

Cons: - It is made of plastic so some might think it feels cheap to the hand. - No LED indicator as advertised. This may have been a feature in previous generations of the product but not the one I received.

Overall Review: Yes, I recommend this USB Thumbdrive. The physical size is not too small. Great value for the amount of GB paid. I wish it had the LED indicator as advertised in the photo.

Perfect capacity, WD quality

WD Blue 750GB Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 2.5 Inch - WD7500BPVX

Pros: Great price on Newegg. I needed a secondary HDD for my computer. Primary drive is a SSD. This will be for storage so don't need the speed.

Cons: Not really a con but takes a while to format in Computer Management within Windows.

Overall Review: Great drive for an awesome price.

Good price on a SATA cable

Pros: Cool transparent red SATA cable, has a metal locking clip, the clip is powder coated in black paint, awesome price

Cons: None

Overall Review: Used it to connect my 2.5" HDD to my mini-ITX computer build.
