Pros: cheap, fast easy.

Cons: --

Overall Review: over the last tree years I keept buying 160gb harddiscs. i got around ten now, all differnet kinds of brands samsung maxtor etc. thry all have around 148-155 gig on there. i read in a previous review someone was sad about the fact that 10 gigs are missing. Im was sad too 3 years ago, when I bought my first one and there were a couple of gigs missing.Basically it its due to the convertion of bit to byte. and of course marketing, buy disc with 148.xxx mbyte

Pros: price, light is quite bright. sensor works very well. when I drive by with my car it immediately goes on (about 6-8 meters). It is on for maybe 2-3 minutes. long cable to panel. Just ordered another one as it was on sale for 20$. I will put the light in my basement so the light goes on once I open the door.

Cons: not settings, but works as is. It is not enough light if you plan to light the front of a garage.

Pros: I wanted to build a NAS (6x 2t WDears) that would work energy efficient. I Initially purchased a D525 desktop board. Interestingly the Freenas driver would not support the NIC. Nexenta would not even boot. I proceeded to using a regular board. It worked, but did draw 140 watts total. if you calculate the additional electricity costs of running this for a year you might as well just go ahead and buy an expensive server Atom board. The cheap desktop atom boards only have one PCI slot, that only supports 133 mb/sec total of data throughput. So realistically you only could add 2 HDDs to an extra stata controller. This is not a problem whit this board now. 6xsata and you can easily upgrade with an PCI-express controller. My current system uses 55 Watt on load. 6 x HDDs, 4 x 120 mm fans (led, although I did not want) and one 140 mm top fan, corsair 430 Watt PSU.

Cons: Now there is a D525 Atom released

Overall Review: Compared to the desktop board this is expensive. The marked seems to be segmented in the way that if you want to use an Atom on a NAS you need to spend the extra bucks. Not that the production costs more but that is how companies squeeze out the bucks. Other than that Supermicro is a good company and I could not find any other providers with INTEL NICs, 6 Sata slots and a PCI-express slot. I did buy this as an open box from Newegg. I paid 105 bucks, thought I risk it. It turned out to be the right choice. The only thing that was different was that it came in a different Supermicro box (other server board). The cheap "G.SKILL 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory Model 2-5300CL5S-2GBSQ" works flawless

Pros: runs stable, fast

Cons: price

Overall Review: I use it with COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus fan. idle at 33 Celsius under load 39. I guess I am happy with that. got good reviews, that's why I got this affordable cooler. ASRock X58 Extreme LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard OCZ Gold 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)

Pros: it is a phone, it rings, it vibrates, the sound quality is good, has alarm clock. What else do you need. it is unlocked, it is cheap.

Cons: battery life is probably 3-4 days or so. Something was missing in the settings, but I forgot what it was. Menu is somewhat intransparent, but everyone is different there.

Overall Review: my 2cond cell phone I had (2002) nokia 6310i. I did not have to recharge it for 14 days. With an unreal sound quality and all the features as mentioned above. That was a phone.

Pros: works with low end memory, USB hd transfer rates of 35mb/sec

Cons: does not come with a lot of screws
