Pros: Fast, outstanding consistency, RAID friendly, high endurance NAND, full power loss protection, 5 year warranty

Cons: Power draw

Overall Review: Basically an overclocked DC S3500. 128 Gbit per die ONF 2.1 NAND gives it far higher endurance than other consumer drives and better consistency, but at the cost of mediocre write performance. Draws too much power for a mobile device, but a fast and rock solid drive for a PC.

Pros: Slim, supports m-disk DVDs

Cons: Cannot write half of the DVD media I have tried, slanted front of tray is cumbersome.

Overall Review: Can't read or write some DVD-R media that my Lite-On burner has no problems with

Pros: None. Haven't had one work yet.

Cons: Fails to spin up on anything I've tried it on.

Pros: Very low price for 6 Haswell E cores in 85W. Still has 3.2 GHz QPI and handles lots of DDR4. Nice for virtualizing file server and low power apps in 1U. Half the cost of E5-2620 V3 and 4x cheaper than E5-2618L V3.

Cons: No hyper-threading.

Pros: Excellent fit and easy install. IMHO, best solution for narrow ILM E5 processors in multi-CPU or 1U applications.

Cons: None

Pros: Low power, doesn't use up a drive bay

Cons: Board blocks adjacent SATA prot on most MBs.
