Pros: Compact and simple to assemble. Handles my 1.5TB drive well (but I think this is the upper limit). Muted blue status light works well in home theater settings (where I use mine).

Cons: No vents, so just choose your disk drive carefully if you want this on for extended periods of time.

Overall Review: I use this as extended HD video storage for my Dish Network satellite system. Installed a Western Digital 1.5TB Green drive which is the PERFECT combo -- low power usage, low heat production, huge storage capacity. It is on all the time, but it doesn't get hot -- even without vents or a fan. The combo is VERY quiet.

Pros: Seems pretty well built.

Cons: CAUTION: Has 1 TB limit that's not described on the Newegg site. Doesn't recognize or handle my new Western Digital 1.5 TB drive.

Overall Review: The limiit is on the manufacturer's web site, but I didn't think to check. These days with all the big drives, those kinds of limits need to be listed.

Pros: ECC support, lots of SATA connections

Cons: Repair support nightmare, doesn't properly handle low RPM fans

Overall Review: Had to "RMA" the board due to a failed BIOS update. It's now been in their shop for A MONTH. Worst part was being charge $50 to repair a bent pin which would never had happened if the BIOS update had worked properly. Also, avoid truly low RPM 4-pin fans. At somewhere around 800 rpms, the motherboard thinks the fan has failed and "panics" and ramps the fan up to max RPM's even though the temperature hasn't changed by a single degree. It goes through the cycle every 10 seconds or so. Tech Support is not specific as to the precise minimum RPM fan you should use to avoid this.
