Pros: i bought this to upgrade my amd quad-core phenom pc .. it is working great for me. i am using it as boot system drive with two 2T 64M drives in raid 1 stripe ... my data drive is an external raid 0 nas box.
Cons: i have an asus M3N-HT deluxe motherboard. some said it is incompatible. not for me it wasn't. pretty basic: 1. do the ocz firmware update on the ssd 2. flash motherboard bios to latest bios 3. change bios settings to AHCI windows installation detected the drive along w my 2x 2TB 64M drives. the instillation went perfect and i have a new boot drive.

comfy chair, bad QA, bad support

Pros: - comfy, although i had to add my own cushions for back.
Cons: - this came with a loose arm . it is so loose that i am afraid it will fall off id i am not careful. - i contacted technical support. they initially told me they would send me parts if i sent them a pic. i made a video and posted to my ticket of the arm moving around. i have not heard back from them since.
Overall Review: - these racing style chairs are comfy. i cannot recommend this chair due to their QA issues and bad support. - i can live with the problem, however, we buy new things. we want our new things to not have flaws. edit1: my original review above was written 01/03/2018 .. i am updating today 06/16/2018 -- the second handle on the chair has fallen off. the bolt is stripped. only two bolts hold the handles on a metal piece. now i have a chair with one arm wobbly and the other with no chair handle. -- still no technical support as of yet for either issue . -- downgraded to one egg. would be negative eggs if i could . edit2: 7/11/18 company sent me two new arms. chair is good .
awesome

Pros: - huge - very big - not small
Cons: - windows 10 brought these up with them zoomed in 300%. i had to go into settings and adjust down to 100%.... awesomeness happened.
Overall Review: bought two of these. i'm in the middle of a new pc build.. these will go with the new pc ....i have two asus 35" ultradwides .. .. these are bigger horizontal than the ultrawides, plus double the vertical . i spend a lot of time on my pc because i write a lot and trade cryptos alot, which is why monitors are always a good investment for me. the more real estate i have the better.. these have the real estate . these are very big .. they are still good size though .. i think we are getting close to maximum size.. maybe until quantum electronics and pcs become a thing. i expect soon we will have monitors that surround our desks . virtual quantum 3d computing .
very good .

Pros: -works well.
Cons: -none
Overall Review: i bought this because i am replacing a seagate external 1TB similiar to this that finally started to give up the ghost.. well it has been many years. i cant remember how many years. since then i have bought others for other people. theirs are still going well too. if find something works well for a long time, probably better stay with it. well i'm staying with seagate drives .
the best .

Pros: -high quality -non-capacitance
Cons: -need bigger containers of this stuff .
Overall Review: i buy a lot of this stuff. the reason why i buy it is because it is non-capacitance .. what that means is that if any gets on the pins of the cpu, gpu, or whatever chip (asic chips), its not going to create a capacitor between the pins causing loss of performance. i use this stuff on my cpus and gpus. i do not always open up a gpu, but when i do i replace the stock thermal paste with this stuff because it is better. chips run cooler with this stuff .when i modded asics, i use this stuff. i was able to get more than maximum rated hasing from my asic chips with this stuff . the stock thermal paste put on by manufacture was capacitance, therefore it caused loss of hashing power of the asic chips. when building high end pcs, you need the best. well this is the best .
awesome .

Pros: -high quality case -handles -easy access to top and front fans -room for 280M radiator -hd's placed on backside -ample cooling
Cons: -using 280M corasir h115i radiator causes the top bay to be unusable as hoses get in the way (this is not problem for me since i am only using the bottom bay of the two bays.
Overall Review: i've been building pcs my entire life .. i originally bought two for threadrippers i am building.. i bought them because of the handles mostly .... i was so impressed that i bought two more of these cases to replace the cases of two other older pc builds that are still very much in the game . i am moving over to cougar for first choice for cases because of this case . i have tried many cases and this case is by far the best one i have found .
