No Frills No Thrills
Pros: Works as advertised.
Cons: Not the greatests of timings.
Overall Review: If you don't overclock, this is your ticket. It's cheap as DDR3 goes.
Lack of Reliability/Compatibility
Pros: There are pros? Bought it to read discs, which it can't.
Cons: It's slow, noisy and doesn't ready many BluRay discs. Keep getting AACS error or drive simply wont read the disc. Use Bluray player on my Lenovo notebook and it reads no problem with OS and software app.
Beautiful and Quiet
Pros: Small Foot Print Quiet Aluminum Great Ventilation
Cons: Not all bays can be used Tight Spacing Inside
Overall Review: Bought this case to replace a Lian Li Full Tower as I moved into a smaller place. It has a tiny foot print and is ultra quiet. In addition, cooling is outstanding given the top cover fan. Spacing in side is at a premium so chose your components well. Although it has plenty of bays, most Micro-ATX motherboards do not have that many SATA connectors. If you use the Lian Li optical drive face plates, chose your drives carefully as they need to be a specific length. Otherwise, the backside will hit the motherboard. I had to purchase a new Optical Drive for this. Cable management is tough, although you should expect this with a small case. My full size ATI 6850 graphics card fits nicely but you will need to remove one of the 3.5 bays to allow room for the power connector. This is a great little case, provided that you chose your components carefully. You can easily build a very mid-high end PC, but over-clockers should look elsewhere.
Complete Rubbish
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Doesn't work. Multiple random crashes. First time I've seen BSD in ages.
Worthless
Pros: None. It took forever to setup. Now I just get garbled characters or no printing at all. Updated firmware of unit and tried multiple drivers from HP. No bueno.
Cons: It doesn't work.
Slightly Louder
Pros: It's fast and easy to install.
Cons: Slightly louder that my previous Seagate 5400rpms.
Overall Review: Both my desktops and notebook have Seagates hard drives. No RMA yet, can't say the same for the past three WD HDs that I owned.
