Who knew there was that much water in air...

Frigidaire FDF70S1 Dehumidifier White
Frigidaire FDF70S1 Dehumidifier White

Pros: Either this this is amazing at dehumidifying, or it's amazing at making water from nothing. I don't have the hose hooked up for constant draining, but I'm emptying a bucket every 24 hours! Yeah, I have humidity issues. The auto shutoff at high water level is a very nice touch, and the bucket has a lot of splash guards in place which is a good couter for one of it's cons.

Cons: The bucket's a little annoying. It either releases easily, or it pops out like crazy. The splash guards are nice so you don't make a mess. If you take special care to push the tabs in, it does slide out well enough, I suppose. A lock would have been nicer than tabs. I am also afraid of the handle on the bucket. I see it breaking after a while of use, or carrying it at a bad angle. Final complaint is it sucks a lot of juice. It's on a 15 amp circuit, and lights dim when it turns on. I wish it had a gentle start cycle.

Overall Review: Despite the cons, I'm glad I have it. You probably will be, too.

My hero!

Pros: It works! Love the long antennae! Software, though I hate installing extra stuff, has a lot of info that's pretty cool to see!

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I had a diehard linksys card for a long time. Randomly it started failing (got a BSOD... unreal). I tried another linksys (had one sitting around) and it had the same error. Reformatted, fresh install with new drivers, same error! This card fixed all of my problems :)

Pretty good.

CORSAIR Voyager 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive Model CMFUSB2.0-16GB

Pros: Good read rate, large size (especially considering price AR).

Cons: Slow writes, though not slower than average, I'm sure. My computers have, on occasion, been unable to connect the drive. Unplugging, replugging has worked. Never had an issue like that with any other drives.

Overall Review: Certainly worth buying.

Does its job.

Pros: Works well. I have another seagate 500GB that fails intermittently. This one is fine. It's quieter than my loud fans.

Cons: None.

Works well

LINKSKEY LKA-CR15BW 52-in-1 USB 2.0 Internal 3.5" USB Card Reader
LINKSKEY LKA-CR15BW 52-in-1 USB 2.0 Internal 3.5" USB Card Reader

Pros: Only used SD and MS, but both slide in nicely. upgraded (?) from a Lian Li that cost more but gave iffy results. This one is very nice.

Cons: These card readers show all card drives even though nothing is inserted. I don't get it. Why don't they add that "feature" already... seems obvious. LEDs are a little strange. I'd rather it be off unless something is attached, or maybe only flash on activity. It's on all the time.

Overall Review: It's a little smaller than the opening for my 3 1/2 inch slot. Leaves about 1/8th inch open...

It Works!
