CHEAP

Team C123 32GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive TC123332GW01
Team C123 32GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive TC123332GW01

Pros: The only pro I can say is it worked for about a month.

Cons: This thing worked for a month and then quit. When I try to use it I get a notice that it needs to be formatted. When I try to format it tells me it is locked. Where's the unlock switch?

Overall Review: I wouldn't waste money on this. It is obviously cheap. I'm sure some people have had luck with it but I'm not one and I just threw $20 away plus the thumb drive.

Junk

Pros: None

Cons: I bought two of these and neither one was recognized by Windows 7 Pro. I only gave it 1 because 0 is not available.

Overall Review: Don't buy this

Pros: Worked fine for three months.

Cons: Three months in it quit working. Power is good to it. Something on the board? I don't like living in a throw away society and this just burns me.

Acer Aspire One AO756-2808 Ash Black Intel Celeron 877(1.40 GHz) 11.6" 4GB DDR3 Memory 500GB HDD Netbook

Pros: Small, worked good for two years.

Cons: I hate spending money on something like this just to have it die in two years.

SLOWWWW!

ADATA 32GB UV128 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive (AUV128-32G-RBY)
ADATA 32GB UV128 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive (AUV128-32G-RBY)

Pros: 32 GIG

Cons: This is slower than all my USB 2 thumb drives. Some may be good but not mine. Cannot use to transfer files. 7 gigs was going to take 18 hours? Plugged one of my USB 2 and it was going to take 16 minutes.

Overall Review: I guess we just take our chances with technology theses days. Wished this worked better, sounds like most do work good but not mine.

Intel BOXDX58OG LGA 1366 Intel X58 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Intel BOXDX58OG LGA 1366 Intel X58 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: N/A

Cons: Bought two of these boards. One board would not fire up right out of the box. You would think that a $200 plus board would be tested and in working condition before being sent out. Southbridge heat-sink is very small and worry-some.

Overall Review: Wouldn't spend this much money on an Intel board again.
