Pros: I have used a number of the MegaRAID controllers mostly with SATA drives but some SAS. They work well. I've tried them with a number of motherboards and have had no compatibility issues. Systems have been running Windows 7 Pro and Windows Server 2008 R2. Motherboards from ASRock, ASUS, MSI.

Cons: none

Overall Review: For my application (analyzing 1200 to 14000 microscope images in a single run) I have found that using WD VelociRaptor 600g 6gps (10000 rpm) can be measured at about 92% of the speed I get from more expensive 15000 rpm SAS drives.

Pros: This is a really nice monitor.

Cons: The monitor died after about 2 weeks.

Pros: I use this cooler in all my builds now. It is a great value. Complete solution to cpu cooling in a neat little package. i7-990X at 4.2Gz runing prime95 - 68 degrees.

Cons: Can be a little hard to mount in some smaller cases. Tubing seems too short sometimes but I have always worked it out in mid-tower or larger cases.

Overall Review: Works great with any motherboard i've tried in Antec 300 and CoolerMaster ATCS840

Pros: These drives are a great balance of price and performance. I have tested RAID speeds at 92% of speed of much more expensive SAS drives.

Cons: none

Overall Review: If you need more capacity the WD Caviar Black 2TB is what your looking for

Pros: inexpensive. very nice display. usable sound. For everyday office/desk use this is great monitor.

Cons: Sound isn't good enough for a gammer

Pros: Matte finish screen. Really bright. I have to turn brightness way down. It stays very cool. I use mostly for editing text and office type work.

Cons: No DVI input Seems a little slow, so might not be best for gaming.

Overall Review: I actually bought this just on price and didn't even realize until it arrived that it is LED. I use the VGA input since I use this with my laptop when I work at home. I tried it using the HDMI but since the monitor has no speakers and the HDMI use seems to shut off speakers. So for me it is better to use the VGA.
