Pros: Works great, looks great! Major improvement over the do it yourself filter appearance.

Cons: Little costly but I would buy again.

Overall Review: I would test your case with a magnet where you want the filters before you buy.

Bad Luck?

WD Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Fast, good value, awesome transfer rates. Had a friendly fail on the 2nd one, could get data off before it went (if I had any). Newegg was fast with RMA and were willing to work with me through this setback.

Cons: First one had a bad sector, I'll give that one to WD it appeared fine and I understand that getting through quality control. Second one failed within a week. The 1 TB drives have higher failure rates than the smaller ones.

Overall Review: Newegg has provided excellent service through out. I have a SSD boot so I am still connected (another +1 for SSD). WD has been a favorite brand of mine, I have some drives that are over 6 years old but I keep having bad luck with this model. I'm going to try my luck one more time due to their past good history.

Vibrant!

Pros: If you want the best for gaming look no further! This thing looks amazing, crystal clear, sharp, wide array of colors. The monitor even has a selection to put a crosshair on the screen for those old pesky games that only gave you a dot or left you guessing! Blue Ray looks great. Bigger than I expected.

Cons: Might be a little big to tote to LAN parties.

Overall Review: 1ms, and 144Ghz, does anyone else provide this quality?

Western Digital Blue WD6400AAKS 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Western Digital Blue WD6400AAKS 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

Pros: Very reliable. Has lasted for 5 years without even a hiccup.

Cons: 8MB cache isn't ideal for gaming, not their fault I didn't understand that 5 years ago.

Overall Review: Became the bottle neck in my rig until I went SSD. Now it functions as a storage drive quite well.

5 years of torture.

Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit for System Builders
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit for System Builders

Pros: It functions. It still has updates for a little while longer than XP and it was capable of utilizing 64 bit operations better than XP.

Cons: Security Overkill. Didn't support older version software as well as newer OS.

Overall Review: To continue the torture insert Win8!
