Enough for two computers!

Cooler Master Real Power Pro1000 RS-A00-EMBA 1000 W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: Lots of power! Plenty of wires for plenty of hardwares

Cons: Installation's a pain with 50 wires.

Never a problem

Pros: Works.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I've not had a single problem with this hard drive, in fact, I salvaged this hard drive from my own computer and brought another one of these hard drives. WD has not failed me. Two seagate harddrives have failed on me, one Toshiba with a loose connection, a five Western Digital HD's which for the past 5 years have worked perfectly.

Works

Pros: Works really well, haven't had a problem from installation

Cons: None really, the board could use more space for my gtx 295 video card since it covers up one of the other PCI-e slots.

Conveniently bulky

Pros: It's huge but at the same time convenient enough for me to think about a second PSU. Unlike my old cases where you had to screw everything on, you really don't need tools for this. There are neat little compartments on the inside which slides in and out for you to place your HD on and snap them in like shelves. Installation of CD/DVD drives or whatever may be a bit harder since you have to twist something off of the case until it breaks off to make room for the drive. Enough fans to last for 3 days without problems. Case was superb.

Cons: Three or more dents when my case came. I'm sure you could blame it on the UPS delivery guys, but there were some noticeable sharp edges in the back kof the computer which could have been hazardous for anyone who happened to miss it and walk by it. The back end of the case was slightly tilted. Two of the corners on the right side of the case were bent outward and I had to bend them inward in case of well... someone ends up cutting themselves on the case. The case by all means is not portable either, but it comes with WHEELS! Wheels which allow you to transport it from one room to another I guess.. which I didn't install. They were small wheels anyway; meant for hard surfaces and not carpet.

Overall Review: It's conveniently bulky!
