PC won't power up with this connected
Pros: USB 3
Cons: Shorts out PC
Overall Review: I leave my PC on and one morning I woke up and it shut down overnight. I checked the power connections NG. Tried a new cord NG. So I called my son up to check it out. He rechecked all the things I did, then started disconnecting all the cables, after he pulled a few out he decided to try it again and it booted. He plugged everything back in and the wired keyboard + mouse did not work. The wireless keyboard worked so he told me to reboot. I shut everything down and the PC seemed like it lost power again. Mike comes back up from the basement, starts pulling out the cords again and when he pulls out the USB 3 cable connected to this he tries it again and it powers up. I left it out + it rebooted 3x so far so now I'm looking for a RMA. I'll let you know the outcome.
Works fairly well on 2nd floor
Pros: I had a pair of rabbit ears laying on top of my bookcase. I hooked this one up and did a channel search and got about ten new channels. I live in North Queens about ten miles from the Empire State Building. I think thats where the broadcast antenna are now.
Cons: Does not improve on the rabbit ears on the ground floor. I reconnected it after I tried this one.
Overall Review: I am satisfied for the price of 16.99 and free shipping.
No SATA power cable
Pros: Price
Cons: No SATA power cable included. Now I have to purchase one and wait. If I knew I would have bought on with it. No documentation included.
