Pros: Big enough for full ATX motherboard, mounting points for a lot of fans, which really doesn't seem well documented anywhere, so I'll list them (none are included): Front: 2 120mm fans Rear: 1 120mm fan Side: 2 120/140mm fans Top: 2 120/140mm fans Bottom is not listed anywhere, but there appears to be a mounting point for a 120mm fan just behind the PSU. Toolless EVERYTHING! 8 3.5" drive bays, 3 5.25" drive bays (one can be converted to 3.5"), 7 pci/pci-e bays, all toolless, there are screw holes on the pci slots, but boards don't move at all when the arm is locked in place, so I didn't find it necessary to use any screws. Front panel looks really nice, includes audio jacks for headphone/microphone, and two USB 3.0 (2.0 compatible) ports, feels really sturdy, not flimsy at all. This feels like a $70 case, and it's on sale for $35. Hands down, the best mid-tower case for the price.

Cons: Won't make me a sandwich. Aside from that, none so far.

Overall Review: I was really blown away by this case. I hadn't had a Xigmatek board before, so I really didn't know what to expect. This case looked good, fit an ATX motherboard, and had pretty much everything I was looking for in the sub-$50 range, but for $35 I really wasn't expecting this. This case is much much more than I expected. I like it better than the $80 case I have for my personal computer, but feel it's maybe a little big for a micro-ATX motherboard like mine. This case is made for ATX, and supports up to 3 dual-slot video cards. My computer was built for single-card gaming...this case can do so much more. Some people might complain that it doesn't come with fans, but it never claims to. I found the case on Xigmatek's website, and the pictures show the case with a rear fan....it also shows it with a clear panel on the side. This does not have a clear panel, the pictures on Newegg ARE ACCURATE. What you see in those pictures is what you'll be getting. Buy some fans. I went with a handful of MASSCOOL FDV12025L1L34 120mm fans. If you want to maximize your cooling, go with 4 140mm fans and 3 120mm fans. I'd recommend the Cougar VF-12 and 14 because they're quiet and move a lot of air, and match the case perfectly. Or if you want, buy some fans with pretty lights.

Pros: The only board at the time to support AMD A10 in a Mini-ITX form factor.

Cons: I came home to a burning plastic smell. After 2 weeks of constant use, Tiny, my mini-ITX box, set next to my TV, was dead. I've had it overheat before, even with my Zalman ZNPS 7500 CU, and it'd just turn off, so I tried turning it on, and saw fire, and immediately pulled the plug, took the cover off, checked all the wires, and didn't see anything. Plugged it back in to see where the fire originated, and it sparked next to the 4-pin CPU power connector, and actually melted part of the board next to it. The board is done for.

Overall Review: At the time of its release, there were two mini-ITX motherboards which supported Socket FM2, this one and MSI's. I could not find any place that sold MSI's board, but did find it was a bit more expensive, and decided that this one had all the features I really needed, and anything extra could be added later. My roommate pointed out the terrifying thought that what if the failsafes didn't kill the power to the board and the fire was left uncontrolled while we were out having dinner? We'd be homeless and everything we had of value would probably be destroyed.

Pros: Probably the fastest HDD I've ever used. When kept healthy, it'll stay fast. It was on sale for $95 when I bought it back in 2010, before the flood in Taiwan caused prices of hard drives to skyrocket. I'm very fortunate for that. Because prices still aren't to what they were then.

Cons: Not SSD fast. But that's okay, I got a Mushkin 120gb SSD for OS and small programs.

Overall Review: All my games are on my 2tb hard drive though. Well, games, movies, rips of physical discs that I don't want to deal with, music, etc....it'll hold everything...I've never filled it. You'd have to either be a person who has to have everything installed even if you don't plan on ever utilizing it, or a pirate for piracy sake...which seems like a waste to me. Update: This drive has served me well for over 11 years now in a computer that's always on. This drive is primarily used for a media server. I've tried to find this particular model in the past as it seems to be built better than any other drive I've come across, but this drive has outlasted its brethren as well. It just won't die, and still shows fairly healthy in CrystalDiskMark

Pros: Let me start off by saying that I've had this drive for 5 days shy of 3 years (purchased 11/24/10). I've had a few other drives, but this is still the best. I came back to the product page because it had gone missing and I was considering buying another one. I don't use it much for mass storage these days as I have two 32gb flash drives. I mainly use this one these days for installing OS and running Live USB. One of my two 32gb drives is capable of booting/installing OS, and has slightly higher R/W speeds according to tests, but runs OS slow and unstable. This 8gb runs everything flawlessly. It may take a bit longer to boot, but runs about as stable as any internal drive at USB 2.0 speeds! For those reading, this drive IS compatible with Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool.

Cons: None! They make 32gb, 64gb, and 128gb versions of this flash drive?! Umm...I'll be right back...let me just buy them all.

Overall Review: Now, I'm going to buy either a 32 or 64gb DT101, but still keep this one for installing/running OS. Who still uses DVD drives?

Pros: This is just what I needed to finish a rebuild of a failed eMachine's ITX computer. The replacement motherboard had a slightly different layout, which made the ATX power cable about an inch and a half short of reaching the connector on the motherboard, so I ordered this and wired it properly.

Cons: This is the kind of product that has a digital outcome. Either it works or it doesn't. If it works, there's nothing bad to say about it.

Overall Review: StarTech seems to be pretty good at creating simple solutions to complex problems. Gender adapters, extension cables, they can even convert an IDE hard drive or dvd burner to work via SATA, and they have fairly decent prices considering. I like to shop around, but find myself coming back to StarTech for these little solutions.

Pros: Cold boot in 18 seconds!

Cons: none

Overall Review: I built this for a friend of mine. She's not interested in gaming, but wanted a computer that loaded programs quickly. I went around that, and while I am unable to determine when and if it'll slow down, I timed a cold boot at a mere 18 seconds from pressing the power button to being fully loaded into Windows 7 x64 with startup programs loaded.
