Such a nice little fan...

Pros: Another Cisco Catalyst 2950 install. As mentioned in another thread YOU MUST SWAP RED AND BLACK! The fan puts out -12VDC and fans run on positive voltage. Very, VERY quiet.
Cons: Although it flows a decent 5.5 CFM, it is only at 0.08inH2O. The stock fan was 8.5 CFM at 0.303inH2O. As long as the sides of the switch stay open it shouldn't be an issue.
Overall Review: When comparing fans of the same size you can have quite OR you can have high flow. In my case I probably could have done without a fan, but I wanted to put one in as a "just in case". REMEMBER: SWAP RED AND BLACK LEADS IF INSTALLING IN A CISCO 2950 SWITCH! If you don't you risk letting the smoke out. Electronics run on smoke, and if you let it out they stop :)
Not in my case....

Pros: Nice looking package, packed well and looks shiny. So much potential sitting in front of me...
Cons: Because WD didn't use standard placement for the connectors, this HD will not work for many. The connectors are centered on the drive, and the drive is centered on the heat sink. Anyone who uses a system where the disks are placed in a tray (like an Alienware Area-51), look elsewhere....
Overall Review: Western Digital, WHY?! I just spent $4k on an amazing rig, and bought two 300GB Raptors for RAID-1. Now I'm forced to look elsewhere....
Great little addition...

Pros: As others have mentioned this card adds a IDE/P-ATA and 2 SATA channels. Via jumpers you can configure it to use any combination of the four ports. In my case I needed two internal SATA ports, and this is the default settings.
Cons: I doubt I could use the IDE port even if I wanted to. It is about 1/4" from my top video card! If only they used a connector that plugged into the side of the card....
Overall Review: When I installed it Win7 (64bit) picked it up right away. DO NOT USE THE WINDOWS DRIVERS! My system would POST, but hang at the Windows screen. Using the provided drivers disk cured this, and the ports are hot swappable.
Worth it's weight in gold

Pros: This has cooled three processors for me... First an i7-920, second a i7-960 and currently on my dad's i3. None were OC'd. It's dead silent.
Cons: Mounting it can be a pain. I didn't need three people, but I have managed a few scraped knuckles.
As good as I suspected

Pros: I ordered four sticks.. 8GB for my AW M15x (1st gen i7) and 8GB for my AW M11x R3 (2nd gen i5). It clocked down to 1333MHz with no issues, and it fit perfectly fine.
Cons: None that I can find..
Exactly what I needed...

Pros: This added a much needed internal USB 3.0 slot to my Corsair 600T case!
Cons: None that I can think of...
Overall Review: The card is much smaller than you'd think. When I say small, its about the size of an iPhone. On one port I connected the front port of my case, and on the second added a small wireless-N dongle. Win-Win!
