works as described

Pros: There is not much to say about this. It is a cable and works as described.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: The picture does not clearly indicate what this is. Each item has two SATA connectors and two SAS connectors, as well as two Molex-style power connectors. It is for connecting SAS disks to SAS controllers that use SATA-style connectors. Note that this requires a SAS controller...SAS disks do not work with SATA controllers, but SATA disks do work with SAS controllers.
decent for the price

Pros: Reasonably well-built, but sort of light weight desktop case. There are no major issues (sharp edges, poor workmanship). Tool-less drive bays are nice. Plenty of space for drives or other hardware inside. Design is not tacky and would be appropriate in an office. Front-mounted USB ports are nice. Power supply mounts on top, resulting in less dust being blown through the unit when compared with bottom-mount designs.
Cons: Light weight. The snap-off PCI card blanks are kind of cheesy. 5 1/4" drive blanks are flimsy and tend to bend and pop out in shipment. Not a problem if the case is just sitting under a desk, however.
Overall Review: Not a great case, but good for the price. If you need a basic no-frills desktop case, you could do much worse than this one.
these are zip ties; they work

Pros: Not much to say here. They do what they are supposed to do.
Overall Review: These zip ties are good for organizing cables.
does what it says on the box

Pros: This is a high quality and fast SSD that works well with an Adaptec 8405 RAID card.
Cons: SATA, not SAS.
Overall Review: This product meets expectations and is a nice addition to any desktop or server.
blank rack panel

Pros: It's a blank rack panel. It is blank and mounts in a rack.
Cons: Doesn't make coffee.
Overall Review: Not much to say here, but it does its job and is inexpensive.
works

Pros: Works as described. Lets you use a disk in a CRU DX115 carrier as an external USB disk. Unit is well built.
Cons: USB 2.0 only. Power bricks are annoying.
