Most Favorable Review

A very nice board

JetWay JNC9KDL-2700 Intel Atom D2700 (2.13GHz, Dual-Core) Intel NM10 Mini ITX Motherboard / CPU Combo
JetWay JNC9KDL-2700 Intel Atom D2700 (2.13GHz, Dual-Core) Intel NM10 Mini ITX Motherboard / CPU Combo

Pros: I am not sure what the other two posters had problems with but I am running Ubuntu 64bit on this same processor Intel D2700. Even hyperthreading seems to be working as well. I am running two concurrent x264 encoding streams @ 60% cpu utilization (avg 4 cores) and my kill-a-watt show only 25 watts!

Cons: Wish it was a bit faster but pretty good for an atom chipset.

Most Critical Review

Quality Not So Good

Hitachi GST Deskstar 0S03230 3TB 5400 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Hitachi GST Deskstar 0S03230 3TB 5400 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: I bought one of these drives 6 months ago and it has been working really well. I decided to add another and it ran for one day and then started screeching. Newegg replaced and all seem well. It was not. Unit would slow down on writes starting at 60mb/s and slowing to 30mb/s or less, with the drive consistently pausing during writes. I now have to send it to Hitachi so I am now out another $15 or so for return shipping. This drive is quickly becoming a bad deal.

Cons: If you got a good one it works. So far I've only gotten one out of three.

Great product I have quite a few of these drives.

Pros: These are nice drives a little bit slow on speed up but all of these high terabyte drives are that way.

Cons: It works great for my needs.

Overall Review: I have no problem recommending these drives.

Works great if you need 12 outlets

Pros: Has 12 outlets.

Cons: It does not work has advertised! The master controller does not turn-off the controlled devices when my amp turns off. The amp has a load of 7 watts when in sleep mode but the controlled power strip stays on.

Don't buy if you use netflix

Pros: Overall it sounds pretty good.

Cons: It support DTS and Dolby Digital but NOT dolby digital+ (DD+) so if you watch netflix you only get stereo.
