Awesome

Pros: Awesome look, very quiet operation. Cable connection points to power supplier are wonderfull - push pin, with screw on sleeve. Cables are sleeved and thin, reduces clutter in box. Quality construction.
Cons: Not really a con, but a consideration. The connectors at the power supply for the cables are long and rigid, adding 1 to 1.5 inched to the length of the power supply. This is normally not a problem. But if your case is a tight fit for the power supply, this should be considered.
Overall Review: "Tool box" case is great for storing misc. parts after install.
Cheap - Too Big

Pros: Simple connections, no gawdy lights. Third USB on panel, which makes use of a full two onboard USB ports on your MB. Three for the USB ports, and one for the card reader.
Cons: Both front panels (silver / Black) are OVERSIZE. Roughly 1/8" to long - doesn't fit my Lian Li case (Koolance system) I had to file down both sides to prevent the panel from having to stick out about an 1/8". How does a MFG get that measurement wrong? Cheap screw holes - plastic holes with wood screws to mount.
Overall Review: Not impressed - When I pushed in the plastic tabs to remove the front panel so I could file it down, one of the four tabs holding it in place just snapped off. Cables are short. Not recommended for tall towers mounted in top slot.
Blue Screen of Death

Pros: None...Period.
Cons: Installed the card, started my PC, Card was not found by WIN 7 64Bit. Inserted the installation CD per the manual, and ran the setup program. Right after setup finished, the PC Blue screened... I could not recover through windows repair. The RAID-0 setup of 2 SSD's I was using were trashed and I have not been able to re-use them so far.
Overall Review: Never purchase another item by this manufacturer again. The WORST experience I have ever had, and I have been building, repairing, and programming for PC's for over 20 years.
Upside Down

Pros: Apple Fast charge port works well, 3.0 speed good. 3 Front covers, Black, white, silver. Lighting is dim, not overpowering to look at.
Cons: The USB ports are upside down! I had to mount this upside down to keep proper orientation. Also, my Dell Keyboard would not work with this device, backwards compatability is suspect for Keyboards and mice.
Great Drive - Horrible Software

Pros: Fast Drive, Quiet, Stylish Black design. Front tray door is gloss black, rest of drive is matte - nice high end look. SATA connection, Burns CD's at 48x easily.
Cons: The software should be banned. I installed the software and it immediately conflicted with my monitor drivers - I started getting lines across the screen. When I tried to use the Roxio software - BAM - Bluescreen of memory death. I spent two hours uninstalling the horrible software and re-installing the drivers it hacked up.
Overall Review: Buy it for the speed, quality, quiet operation and Plexor name. Install the Roxio software at your own risk.
Won't Crossfire

Pros: Great single slot card. DVI and HDMI ports, 1GB of GDDR5 memory.
Cons: Won't crossfire - I purchased a second card to crossfire, and I am using a Gigabyte MB w/crossfire. The card appears in windows and in the Catalyst software. The card shows "disabled" in the software, and the "crossfire" tab does not appear. Further research on the web shows that this card will not crossfire in Windows XP.
Overall Review: Newegg RMA'd right away - Gigabyte customer care non-existent.
