Surprisingly good!

Comments: I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this case, and how well it worked with my Intel P4 motherboards. It fit the microATX motherboards perfectly. The "funny" hole in the top was directly over the P4 fan and kept it perfectly cool without any increase in fan speed. What a great design!

Most Critical Review

Quite good but incomplete

Samsung BD-D5300 Wifi Ready Blu-ray Disc Player - Tabletop - 2 Channel - Gloss Black Finish
Samsung BD-D5300 Wifi Ready Blu-ray Disc Player - Tabletop - 2 Channel - Gloss Black Finish

Pros: Works well, good up-conversion of DVDs, standard Samsung smart menu system. Many apps, including Netflix which works reasonably well.

Cons: Wired Ethernet, WIFI requires $50 list adapter No A-m-a-z-0-n instant video app at all. Netflix app sometimes looses sound sync, requiring an exit from Netflix then restart to continue with correct sound.

Overall Review: Bought because I like my Samsung Smart TV and wanted to add its capabilities to my other TV. I did my research but was still surprised. WiFi READY does NOT mean what I thought. That doubled the cost, since wires to upstairs room not practical.

QUIET, low power, reasonably quick, low cost solution

Pros: silent, low power requirements, small size, reasonably fast, integrated graphics, low cost

Cons: only UEFI boot meant my standard memory sticks couldn't be used to load.YUMI-UEFI got me around that.Only two SATA may constrain some uses.

Overall Review: I like it for a grandchild game machine update when I retired W7 machines. Nearly as fast as my own 6 year old desktop. Moore's Law is a wonderful thing to combat ever growing software requirements.

Too kool for school - Educators beware!

Pros: I've only tested the pci portion so far but I LOVE the way the "LCD Host" shows the description of the POST code right along with the numeric code. It worked right off for my BIOS, although the "manual" says it can cycle through descriptions of the codes for Award, AMI, Phoenix, and EFI.

Cons: No diagnostics of voltage levels like my older SOYO unit has. It shows buss activity instead. Maybe a con but maybe a matter of taste. "de gustibus non disputandum est" I have another inexpensive tool for power supply diagnosis anyway.

Overall Review: I've only tested the PCI portion so far but I'm REALLY impressed! I've long had the SOYO and something for ISA before that. This is a vital tool when your computer won't boot and answers the timeless question... W-T-(censored)?

Works with Apple phones

Pros: Key fob worked fine with my daughter's iPhone 4S. Either could alert the other. She tends to loose her keys and the older devices we've tried eat batteries. Bluetooth LE should let batteries last a full year. We'll see.

Cons: I could load app into my LG L70 Android phone but couldn't get it to pair. However, it is NOT on the supported list, despite bluetooth 4.0. I thought it worth the experiment.

Overall Review: My daughter left her phone and took her keys with NO alert. Some other reviews blame IOS's imperfect multitasking for this problem. I just know it didn't work as it should have.

They just work

Pros: I installed one in my LG L70 phone, added music, it just works. Used another with USB reader to back up computer files. It just worked.

Cons: none so far

Overall Review: I didn't test card speed. No opinion on that. My USB reader itself is slow.

Exactly what I needed and shipped very quickly.

I needed a 1U fan for an older computer IMMEDIATELY since I couldn't find my spare. They shipped so very quickly and I'm delighted. Exactly as pictured, packed well and fixed my machine up. Perfect!

One port at a time, no boot option sata interface w/eSata port

If one port, internal or external, is what you need and you have a little PCI-e slot, this card is an inexpensive option.
