Work fine with 15" Macbook Pro (2.16 Ghz)

Patriot 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory Model PSD22G6672S

Pros: It works with my 15" Macbook Pro 2.16 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo. it is really easy to install. Newegg rocks, I got the memory stick on Thursday...only 2 days after I ordered it.

Cons: None

Overall Review: everything loads super fast compare to the 1GB stock memory, especially running with Parallel. Too bad, my laptop's RAM max out at 3 GB 667Mhz DDR2 SDRAM, or else I will get another 2 GB stick.

Pros: I bought this around Dec. 11 to replace my old 8800 gt. It was a little bigger than I thought and couldn't fix into my old pc... so I decided to give the old pc to my cousin and saved some money to build a new pc to house this card. On Valentine's day, my girlfriend gave me a giftcard and I was able to get the last piece of the build which was the RAM. I was so excited and happy that I can finally put everything together and fire up this bad boy. However my joy was short lasted, after installed windows 7, updated chipset and graphic card driver, and even updated mobo bios... my monitor kept show blue vertical striped of blue every 30 mins or less every time I started up windows. And I can't shutdown or do anything to my pc except for hard-reset it... and the same thing kept on happening. I went online and read about the problem and it seem to be the graphic card that behind all this. I'm filling out a RMA form to PowerColor now... hoping they will fix this issue.

Cons: Blue vertical-striped across the screen, PC froze up and can't restart computer when this happen. I attached a picture of the screen here: http://i41.tinypic.com/24pcsxf.jpg

Overall Review: This is my build incase anyone curious: CPU: i5 - 2500k GPU: PowerColor HD 6870 Mobo: ASUS Z68-V LX RAM: G.SKILL Sniper Low Voltage Series 8GB DDR3 1600 PSU: CORSAIR Professional Series HX650 Case: Antec 300

Pros: I bought this RAM for my macbook pro mid 2012. Everything works as expected. No more spinning beachball YEAH!

Cons: None so far.

Decent USB Drive

Pros: Pretty Fast for USB2.0 16 GBs 10 years limited warranty Water proof (w/ cap closed) --- This is so useful since it will collect dust like crazy

Cons: The top got loose after a while This is one dust-magnet drive Die after 1 and half (see other thoughts)

Overall Review: It gave up on me after a year and half. I thought I took good care of it, I always eject the drive before unplug it from my mac. Didn't try to run over by SUV like in the review video. However it decided to stop working all of the sudden. I tried it on other computer with various OS such as Windows 7,8, XP, and ubuntu but no luck with recognizing the drive. Just filed a RMA form now since I just remember I brought this drive from Newegg. Hopefully the next one will last longer

Fast delivery!
