Seasonic FOCUS GX-550, 550W 80+ Gold, Full-Modular, Fan Control in Fanless, Silent, and Cooling Mode, 10 Year Warranty, Perfect Power Supply for Gaming and Various Application, SSR-550FX.

Pros: i needed a reliable power source for the new system I am about to build. This has a great 12v rail rating, and enough SATA . Nothing less will do. connections for all the hookups

Cons: My only complaint is I haven't got the time right now to start the project, but, I am looking forward to beginning.

Overall Review: I have used Seasonic for over ten years, without so much as a hiccup. Don't mess with the other brands, they'll leave you in a lurch.

1 good,1 no good

HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 HUS724040ALA640 (0F14688) 4TB 7200RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Enterprise Hard Drive  - w/3 Year Warranty
HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 HUS724040ALA640 (0F14688) 4TB 7200RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Enterprise Hard Drive - w/3 Year Warranty

Pros: The good drive gave me no issues, and everything went perfect.

Cons: The bad drive was chugging right along until about 75 of the file transfer crashed. The first issue I've had with and HGST Ultrastar HDD.

Overall Review: I would have confidence in recommending these drives to other people. This is the first HGST I've had an issue with. I ran all the HGST utilities and it failed on the SMART extended test. MY only choice is to RMA the defective drive.

Great to go.

Product and service.

ICY DOCK MB453SPF-B 3 in 2 SATA I, II & III Hot-Swap Internal Backplane Raid Cage Module
ICY DOCK MB453SPF-B 3 in 2 SATA I, II & III Hot-Swap Internal Backplane Raid Cage Module

Pros: I have 4 of these units, and can find nothing but praise for the product. I am changing drives from the storage bays to active bays constantly. The only problem I have had was caused by me, and their service department was kind enough to send me the part I needed to effect the repair. These units are real workhorses, as all their products I own.

Cons: If there are any, I haven't found them in 5 years.

Overall Review: If you need a durable unit, that will stand up to constant use, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this item.

This is my first Hitachi since the Deathstar days. So far I have no issues, but I will reserve final judgement until I have a few months of use.

The shipping information was totally a mess. Nobody seemed to know when my package was going to ship, even after it arrived. The product was excellent.

I've only used one of the calipers, and it periodically binds when opening. Shouldn't be doing that!
