WORKS
Pros: works, built with 120G SSD & win7 NICE runs cool, low noise. loads win7 about 14 seconds from hitting on switch running 8G memory - all from Newegg
Cons: ah, maybe newegg should have a sale on this board
Overall Review: getting new router with 1G speed and increasing memory see if works better. Also have regular HD in machine for storing photos, etc.
POOR
Pros: none
Cons: arrived in small box. no software as noted by others. driver loaded OK - auto by windows. picture was a blur and now is just a light in middle of screen. not worth two cents.....
Overall Review: save your time and money
You get to pay return postage!!
Pros: It's blue and looks like a USB to Serial cable
Cons: fails - kinda works for minute or two - then no communications I'm getting a refund but legally these guys will owe for return shipping. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN NEWEGG for not supplying return shipping label
Overall Review: what a waste. Newegg quality has really gone downhill last few orders
Win7 recovery fails
Pros: Hardware all OK, nice screen, all hardware OK per ad, battery charged up OK
Cons: Win7 fails to load. Numerous runs following the instructions & using windows recovery to load the Operating system. This is the replacement unit so this is #2 that will have to be RMA'ed maybe 3rd unit will go
Overall Review: It's sad that when first unit is returned that some effort at Newegg isn't made to insure the replacement unit functions properly. been month now since purchased this unit - it sure takes newegg long time to turn around the RMA
steps to Windows
Pros: LOW cost & USB 3.0
Cons: no blinking light when doing disk access - if that's important..... (none)
Overall Review: You know day one this is set up for Apple. go to Seagate & get crossplatform ALSO GET seatools for Windows. after crossplatform, use seatools to wipe the drive and convert to MBR. Now crossplatform isn't needed & it will connect to any XP, 7 or 8 machine fine - GL & 73
