10 out of 10

Pros: Solid in my experience. I've built 10 systems with this board and windows 7, and have not experienced one issue. They all just worked.
Cons: None
Overall Review: There seems to be a common problem with some users not getting the board to boot or similar issue. I'm not sure what the pattern is, but I haven't experienced any problems in 10 system builds.
Didn't work.

Pros: It charges my phone.
Cons: Would barely connect. Windows kept making the USB connection sound over and over repeatedly when I connected my phone. Data transfer was very intermittent.

Pros: This console is heavy and sturdy leading me to believe it's a quality product. Although I wasn't able to use it. I am writing this for informative purpose.
Cons: No USB support out of box. At the time of my order, and of this writing, the product description was misleading. That, and the lack of photos that may have shown this, led me to purchase this console for an application I couldn't use it for (no PS2 connections on new server).
Overall Review: There are no USB ports on this console nor does it come with an adapter. I believe it supports USB via a PS2 adapter that is evidently sold separately somewhere. Originally Newegg charged a large (their standard percentage) restocking fee, but changed it to full refund upon my explanation.
Bad batch

Pros: We all know that this drive is the pinnacle of SATA drives.
Cons: Same as earlier reviewer. I ordered 4 of these for two machines (RAID 1) and 3 of them failed either right away, or a few minutes into setup. I then confirmed this with WD diagnostics in another PC, on the one that would actually spin up or not lock the system up. Just some info to anyone who experiences this to save them time diagnosing the problem.
Overall Review: This is a five star drive, but a 0 star experience.
Missed on this one

Pros: Good image quality. Fast print speed.
Cons: Printer started to make squeaking noise and photoconductor units went bad after a few months of use. Was also using a LOT of toner. Found it was being wasted (all colors) and dumped in the waste toner cartrige which was full. Support is slow and of course outsourced (poor English). Warranty WILL NOT return or refund this product. Will only have a tech come to repair. One did, and replaced more internal parts. Now, a month later is squeaking again. Multi tray only holds 10 envelopes. There is no paper feed add-on accessory for this model.
Overall Review: I'm not sure if this is an isolated incident, or a poor design. The tech seemed to think the later.

Pros: Maxtor name, 3Gb/s. If I could get it to work.
Cons: This drive and a few other Maxtor SATA drives have compatibility issues with the nforce 4 chipset. Windows xp hangs at startup 50 percent of the time or more during install and after. Something in the firmware of the drive. A google search of this will confirm it if you would like to know more. I am waiting for Maxtor to open after the holidays (Jan. 3rd) so I can obtain an updated firmware to see if that resolves the issue.
Overall Review: After having a few other Maxtor drives fail including a diamondmax 9 and my own recently purchased diamondmax 10 ide drive coupled with this incompatibility issue with one of the most popular chipsets today, my confidence in Maxtor drives has gone down.
