not bad for 120
Pros: excellent for viewing prawn. the faster the ms the faster I can see breasts bouncing. Who needs to play games when you got prawn. aside from that it's slim not heavy at all matted finish not glossy which is alright. it has an hdmi but no speakers so you have to have headphones or use the 1/8" jack to plugin some creative speakers to it or something. Doesnt have a display pot but hdmi, vga, dvi. I cant vouch if its vesa mountable but i cant see why not.
Cons: no cheap speakers or display port. not sure if this is really a con since it was like 130 after taxes and more recycling taxes. so the con i would say is recycling fees and ca tax. :)
Overall Review: funny how nobody cared about this on black friday but then a bunch of hoopla on slickie dillz and all the sudden everyone goes do do kaka over it. if you need a cheap monitor then buy it. if you dont mind rebates get this monitor. but if you are a gaming snob or someone who wants an over priced fruit, then dont buy this. go buy the fruit that uses samsung to make their screens.
no good
Pros: made it in the dumpster before the rebate came
Cons: i didnt win an nba title for slamdunking this in the trash.. I should have gotten major points for the three pointer from half court :). audio quality sucks, not worth it free or not after rebate. save your money and buy something worth something of value
Overall Review: dont buy :)
lousy garbage from SD
Pros: It was free after rebate. minus the tax and stamp
Cons: This garbage operates at gen 1. no wonder it was free. Installed drivers rebooted and voila its slower than the worst-buy card I bought which is way faster 90-140 MB/s. this particular card maxes out at 32 MB/s!!! seriously!?! My usb 2 is faster than that! Sadly the bios is 0.95 I cant even get 0.951 on the card it requires dos, my hp wont let me boot to usb key and i dont feel like wasting a whole cdr just to get dos running. on top of that i cant get cmd prompt or anything else to do the .bat file specifies. So this has got to be the worst product Ive ever purchased for free. So frustrated with the mis-advertising ugh. Sata revision 3 yeah right. more like revision 0.5. So please do not buy this cr_p really hate the lack of support for this cr_p. real big fail on mediasonics end.
Overall Review: Since it was free I will probably post a youtube video of me ranting how bad this card is.. really not worth it being free. I hope they discontinue this particular card.
fast and legit
Pros: it's a hard drive. its not made china :) sharp edges are used for trimming long fingernails. It's quiet and has a 5 year warranty. It was on sale too.
Cons: the obvious the price inflation. i used to get these for $30 and now its almost $80. its not a ssd so that should be a con.
Overall Review: none really just make these types of drives for $40 and expect people to buy them more often without thinking. it's quiet but not as fast as a ssd.
DOA with no money back
Pros: none the unit is dead and its my fault because now i cant get my $76+ back that i paid for this!!!
Cons: unit is defective upon putting it in my mediasmart server.. so angry i wasted $76 on this ram.. Ill just get my ram from a local store like fries so if all goes south head to the store and get my refund on!
Overall Review: I hate overpriced ram. Defective ram that you constantly have to haggle with support in getting a replacement. Just so frustrated that I got a dead unit and I cant do anything about it.
good price
Pros: e-Sata can use thumbscrews has a fan
Cons: tech support does not exist. I called to ask a simple question about jbod and esata and I never got a call. There is no driver that works in jbod mode in fact i followed the documentation and i cannot install the jbod driver so i can get a faster xfer speed via sata... donot buy if you want tech support or fast speeds. buy if you want a cheap price and free shipping
Overall Review: i would not recommend sans digital to anyone because of their non-existant tech support in which i left a detailed message to call me back and was never ever called back at all not even for a simple general question. Customer Service FAIL!!!
