Most Favorable Review

3 Years and going strong

Seagate Momentus 5400.6 ST9250315AS 250GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Internal Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive
Seagate Momentus 5400.6 ST9250315AS 250GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Internal Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Purchased this over 3 years ago and it's still going strong. Got it as a replacement drive for an old laptop and have just recently repurposed it for a different old laptop and it's still running strong. Couldn't believe I had forgot to leave a review.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: None.

I so rarely gush, but wow!

Phanteks Enthoo Evolv PH-ES314ETG_GS Galaxy Silver Aluminum (3mm), Tempered Glass (3mm), Steel Chassis Micro ATX Tower Computer Case

Pros: Pros are abundant and obvious the moment you begin to take this case apart. It reveals it's modularity and ease of access the moment you take it out of the box. I began this build with a custom water loop in mind, and I already see multiple approaches I can take without bending the first tube. In a word, this case is Art.

Cons: There are really none that I can see. It's a little odd to see 3.5 HDD cages these days in modern high end cases, but there are no doubt plenty of people who still use massive HDD's for internal storage so it remains justified to still include them.

Overall Review: I would and do recommend this case completely. The quality of design and materials implemented more than justify the price, which I found to be very reasonable for such an excellent case. As with anything, always seek reviews and previews before making any purchase. This case was on my radar the moment "Hardware Canucks" released their review and I snatched up the Galaxy Silver edition the moment they arrived at retail.

Bitfenix 120mm Fan / PWM

BitFenix Spectre PWM BFF-BLF-P12025O-RP Orange LED Case Fan

Pros: Excellent fan, VERY NICE LED COLOR.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Oddly enough, I bought two of these (1 red - 1 orange). The orange one had the removable led plug for enabling/disabling led as well as it's two pin extension for Bitfenix led controllers/cases. The red one however did NOT have either the plug, or extension. All I can figure is that the red one was from an old stock that for whatever reason didn't include this feature.

Pros: Works well. Nice color and overall low noise.

Cons: For whatever reason, it didn't come with the extension for running into one of their led controllers or cases. Upon closer inspection, fan didn't have additional pin plug at all. Found this odd given I ordered it and orange version at the same time from the same series and product code line and the orange one HAD the extension and pin plug.

Overall Review: Not sure if I just got old stock or this one missed quality control. 1 egg off :(

StarTech SATADOCKU2E eSATA USB to SATA External HDD Dock for 2.5" or 3.5"
StarTech SATADOCKU2E eSATA USB to SATA External HDD Dock for 2.5" or 3.5"

Pros: Excellent product for more modest computers utilizing last gen connectivity (USB 2.0, eSATA 3Gbit/s, so on...) Very well designed and implemented.

Cons: None at all really.

Overall Review: I purchased this item for use as external storage for my DVR only to find out that my stupid cable company software locks the Motorola digital cable box to prevent this feature.

Seller had one job to do, and did it.

Seller (Corn Electronics) took the time to have stickers made which kindly ask for a rating so here goes... Pros: Product I ordered is the product I requested! Seller didn’t send a live rattlesnake in the mail! Cons: Seller didn’t send a live rattlesnake in the mail (I’m pretty hard to please). Final thoughts: 10/10 - The guy who took the time to have stickers made suggesting the buyer leave a rating/review should get a raise.
