Pros: This company stands behind their stuff, I've never had a DOA stick from Kingston in 15+ years of ordering their products.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Lower profile than others out there, running a surface temp scan on these shows the head spreaders that come on the unit are doing a very even distributed job, my last set had heat pipes and did a very poor job of spreading the heat. Heat pipes aren't for every application IMO and RAM is one of them.

Faster than my old raid setup, comes with 3.5 bracket

Crucial M4 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) CT256M4SSD2BAA

Pros: Windows 7 installed in about 10 mins. Sweet sweet silence, no more spinners for me.

Cons: max read write speeds really only exists for the first couple weeks.. once you populate your PC and clutter it up random read and write drops quite a bit, but this is the same with all SSD drives. Do your homework before you buy expecting MASSIVE speed increase.

Overall Review: This model comes with the 3.5" bracket, the other one for (oddly) $5 more does not come with the bracket.
