ADATA Premier Pro SP900 2.5" 512GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) ASP900S3-512GM-C

Pros: easy install, SSD speed will eliminate the HDD bottleneck even on an older system it will make a huge difference. have had no issues in over 6 months of use

Cons: like a few other posts it will take you more time to download and activate the Acronis cloning software than actuall time to install and clone

Overall Review: none

aw shucks

NETGEAR Wireless Router - N300 (WNR2000)
NETGEAR Wireless Router - N300 (WNR2000)

Pros: while it worked no problems, lasted almost 2 years

Cons: life time warranty is a joke, once the software support expires you cannot get it replaced without paying for the software support to verify its broke...

Overall Review: just got slow..reset...tested... wiped to factory defaults tested... reloaded updates tested... disabled everything I was an evening ritual for a month like that's all I had to do with my time......tech support says its software related...or it wouldn't power on.....for the price of their advice I bought a Belkin....it works...life is good...

Does not work

Paragon Drive Copy Pro 15 Pro - Download (Attach Only)
Paragon Drive Copy Pro 15 Pro - Download (Attach Only)

Pros: simple menu lots of options

Cons: Does not work. no usable instructions, help menu or tutorial but then you shouldn't need it because it's so simple if only it actually worked

Overall Review: I have the experience of using 4 different types of cloning software on multiple PC's and HD/SSD combos and all worked just fine, problem was they were free with the SSD's and I wanted a full version for repeated use and more than just basic cloning. Thought this might fit that purpose but.....tried to clone the boot drive from my laptop to a SSD ( multiple times and methods) and this software never could create a bootable SSD...had to again resort to the freeware that came with my SSD..

KINGWIN EZD-2536U3 2.5" / 3.5" Dual Bay SATA Hard Drive Docking Station USB 3.0 w/ Clone - Retail

Pros: when it worked it functioned as described

Cons: 1st one died within a month, second after a year, the 12 volt power supply draws more power than a laptop unit..so you won't be able to find a replacement power supply... also there is no raid configuration information on the product, so don't lose or misplace the operators leaflet ....

nice

15 Pcs Wholesale Lot For iPhone 4S 4 3G 3GS / iPad 2 3 / iPod Touch - 5 Data Charge Cable + 5 Wall Power Adapter + 5 Car Charger

Pros: cheap and they work

Cons: the retracting cord will not be happy with one handed operation, you must extend by pulling both ends of cord...no biggie yet it seems to be a challenge to some ...

Overall Review: so cheap that who care if you destroy a few 5 car charges 5 wall chargers which are universal USB so the work with any USB corded device as well as the supplied 5 apple specific cords...

Cons: none
