Good SSD, fairly reliable

Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD3-2VTX120G
Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD3-2VTX120G

Pros: Great SSD, first off. This SSD brought me from what I expected a 2+ minute startup to under 25 seconds. Great speeds, loads all of my applications in under a minute. As far as I can tell, from my experience, it's been fairly reliable. I bought this back in February of 2013 and used it up until January of 2014, so almost a year. I recently upgrades to an 840 evo since, after re-reading the reviews, I became worried that my SSD would die. I'm more than likely going to give this to my parents for their build I'm planning - but I'm not sure at this moment.

Cons: None. Didn't die on me as of yet.

Overall Review: Remember: You're purchasing a refurbished unit. It may die on you a day after you get it, maybe two years. That's what happens with things. Great SSD either ways if you're looking to speed up your computer. Also, this a 3.5" drive - not 2.5". So make sure you have a free 3.5" drive bay available in your case.

Great Product

Pros: I bought this guy back in February, put installed 'im in March. I started this guy off on xUbuntu since I bought this guy before I had money for Windows 8. (And yes, people, Windows 8 is great. Bite me.) The driver was instantly recognized on both Operating Systems. Didn't even bother putting the disk drive in (I think it came with one, not sure at this point) and still worked fine. Not a complaint since. I've had continuous time with 4/5 bar connection on Windows. I've had a few down-times, but I think that is due to my ISP since the down-time was across-platform.

Cons: None at this current moment. Has lasted 10+ months and I'm expecting it to last another 10 months.

Very Good

Notebook Battery Replacement for TOSHIBA DYNABOOK EQUIUM, SATELLITE A200 A300 A350 L500 M200 Pro A200 A300 L300 L450 L500 Series Battery - [9Cell 10.8V 6600mAh]
Notebook Battery Replacement for TOSHIBA DYNABOOK EQUIUM, SATELLITE A200 A300 A350 L500 M200 Pro A200 A300 L300 L450 L500 Series Battery - [9Cell 10.8V 6600mAh]

Pros: Very good battery. Charged relatively fast. I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-ES5018, so if you want to get a new battery for it then this is the way to go. My old battery died and I wasn't able to use the laptop for about 2 or three months. This solved the problem.

Cons: Don't have any. The battery is great and is definitely worth it.

Overall Review: Definetly worth the $30 compared to if you buy it from Toshiba directly for $80 or even higher. Battery lasts about 3 hours with video watching, some gameplay, and general internet browsing.

Pretty good for price

Pros: Pretty good I guess. Cheapest usb drive you can get. Red indicator light. Fast write speed for the price

Cons: None

Overall Review: Bought this for a windows 7 iso file. Only one I had was a 2gb one which wouldn't fit it. No real complaints.

Haven't shocked anything yet

Pros: Well, haven't shocked anything yet so I guess that's a plus.

Cons: None

Better than my laptop's wifi

ENCORE ENUWI-G2 Wireless Adapter IEEE 802.11b/g USB 2.0 Up to 54Mbps Wireless Data Rates
ENCORE ENUWI-G2 Wireless Adapter IEEE 802.11b/g USB 2.0 Up to 54Mbps Wireless Data Rates

Pros: Better than my laptop's included wifi Fast

Cons: It's kinda big, but I don't mind

Overall Review: Got it for $10 instead of the $20 normal price. I'm gonna be using this for a new build, but thought I'd try it out on my laptop first. Really good, would recommend to anyone needing wifi on their build.
