FAST DRIVE

OCZ RevoDrive X2 240GB PCI-Express x4 MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSDPX-1RVDX0240
OCZ RevoDrive X2 240GB PCI-Express x4 MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSDPX-1RVDX0240

Pros: FAST it lives up to its name. I get around 738 MB/s using ATTO BENCHMARK. This drive is rated for a lifespan of over 9 years of 24/7 use. Witch means if you left it on straight for 9 years OCZ says it will last that long. But it might last much longer only time will tell. So far so good though.

Cons: Not really a con but there is NO HDD LED activity light hook up for your cases HDD LED light.

Overall Review: I got a blue screen once but i think it was a problem with a program i was running. It has NOT happened in over 3 weeks. I think it crashed before i ran Windows Update on WINDOWS 7 64BIT.

Had Issues Reading Most Of My Media

SAMSUNG DVD Burner 24X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 8X DVD+R DL 24X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 24X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM SATA Model SH-224DB/BEBE

Pros: Mine worked but had issues reading a lot of media that my LITE-ON would read with no problem. My LITE-ON reads all 100% of my media in the house here with NO problem. All my media is in MINT condition & is well taken care of.

Cons: This unit did not read a lot of media that was in MINT condition. This unit needs a tracking alignment or the laser is bad.

Overall Review: You might have better luck than me but if I where you I would stay away from this model.

WORST OPTICAL DRIVE EVER

Pioneer Black 12X BD-R 2X BD-RE 16X DVD+R 5X DVD-RAM 10X BD-ROM 4MB Cache SATA Blu-ray Burner With BDXL Support BDR-2207
Pioneer Black 12X BD-R 2X BD-RE 16X DVD+R 5X DVD-RAM 10X BD-ROM 4MB Cache SATA Blu-ray Burner With BDXL Support BDR-2207

Pros: COLOR matches case

Cons: This drive only reads 30% of my Blu-Ray disc's & I own around 200 of them. I have older LG & LITEON Blu-Ray Drives that READ THEM ALL with no problem. All of my Blu-Ray Disc's are in 100% BRAN NEW condition with NO fingerprints on them

Overall Review: DO NOT BUY PIONEER I'm WARNING YOU. By an LG or LITEON product instead.

Overall Review: Purchase the Popcorn Hour C200 that unit support's .ISO image's
