Pros: Works like it's supposed to Very Quiet Inexpensive Massive storage (2GB)

Cons: Does not include a SATA cable

Overall Review: Probably the biggest hard drive available that is still backwardly compatible with older hardware and operating systems. The new 2.5GB and 3GB hard drives just released look like they will probably cause some compatibility issues for some users.

Pros: The fans have decent airflow. If you slow them to about 1/2 speed with an external controller, the noise level becomes tolerable.

Cons: Although advertised as less than 26dB, they are still quite loud. I would guess them closer to 36dB. One of these fans is much louder than the stock fan that came with my AMD Sempron64 3100+ stock (though it is quieter than the fan that came on my old Pentium III-550). With 3 of these fans in my PC running at full speed, I can hear it running from the next room.

Overall Review: I would not recommend this fan for an HTPC case.
