Most Favorable Review

WD Black 1TB Mobile Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 32MB Cache 2.5 Inch - WD10JPLX

Pros: Contrary to one reviewer, these are not "OEM" drives. There are no Serial-ATA cables or fine china but Western Digital automatically gives the 5 year warranty when thev product is registered.

Cons: This drive [will not] install itself.

Overall Review: Yes, yes and teach it to self-install.

Most Critical Review

Wish D-Link was HONEST

D-Link DPH-50U Skype USB Phone Adapter
D-Link DPH-50U Skype USB Phone Adapter

Pros: If I can get my money back or even credit from the good people here at NewEgg, that will be the ONLY good thing to come out of all this.

Cons: D-Link is well aware of the problem with XP w/spk3 and this unit. The first (so-called) tech was new and went and looked it up and told me yes they have a problem w/spk3. #2 told me they were not aware of any problems it must be my Oper. Sys.. Then a sTUPERVISOr told me the first guy should not have told me that and I have the option of taking it back to NewEgg since I had only had it one day. ALLLLrightEEEEthen

Overall Review: I hope NewEgg will take this back with the packaging less than 100%. I even paid extra shipping to get it here faster. I should have paid extra to get it lost in transit somewhere. On the product data sheet D- Link list minimum sys. requirements as XP w/spk2. WRONG, those are maximum, but if they say that they would lose sales. That's NOT being very honest

10Gbs Non-Powered Hub

StarTech.com HB31C4AB 4-Port USB-C Hub - USB C to USB 3.1 Gen 2 Hub - 10Gbps -  Bus Powered - USB Type C Hub with 4x USB-A Ports
StarTech.com HB31C4AB 4-Port USB-C Hub - USB C to USB 3.1 Gen 2 Hub - 10Gbps - Bus Powered - USB Type C Hub with 4x USB-A Ports

Pros: Works

Cons: Plastic (non-metal) case, Cord not detachable

Overall Review: Something To Remember - USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbs) Specifications suggest a maximum cord length of (1) meter/39.37 inches, from hub (including pigtail) to the rear plug on your computer. (front plug add one foot)

Shipped by Newegg - Only Reason I Bought

10PCS Mini Plug Speaker For PC Interanal BIOS Computer Motherboard Mini Onboard Case Buzzer Board Beep Alarm NEW
10PCS Mini Plug Speaker For PC Interanal BIOS Computer Motherboard Mini Onboard Case Buzzer Board Beep Alarm NEW

Pros: I don't buy from Marketplace Sellers, most especially "Shipped from Overseas" Vendors UNLESS, it's something I'm relatively certain I can fix if it doesn't work AND ONLY if it is shipped by Newegg. Ten of them at seventy cents each plus free shipping. If only half of them work it's still cheaper than the other choices.

Cons: Wires are 1.5" from MB plug to speaker/buzzer. I lengthened them so the speaker was near an opening on the case since they could be louder.

Overall Review: I haven't caught any of them doing Fentanyl or shouting pro Trump slogans yet, so that's a plus.

New Picstructions Have A Mistake

Cooler Master Hyper 212X - CPU Cooler with Dual 120mm PWM Fan
Cooler Master Hyper 212X - CPU Cooler with Dual 120mm PWM Fan

Pros: Once attached, works well.

Cons: See Warning Below

Overall Review: WARNING I just bought (2) additional mounting kits from Ciooler Master USA. (for my three Hyper 212's) The X-Brace has changed and the new picstructions reflect the change, BUT there is now a mistake in which standoffs to use for which brand of CPU. It comes with 4 short standoffs (for AMD) and 4 taller standoffs. (for Intel) The new picstructions show using the taller standoffs (D) for both brands instead of the short standoffs (G) for AMD. The backplate nor it's mounting hole height has changed. It's only a one letter mistake but it will cause you some grief if you use the wrong standoffs. I don't know when the Hyper 212's with the new install kits (picstructions are in the white install kit box w/212) will be out. The last Hyper 212 I bought a month ago had the old style x-Brace and instructions.

New Firmware Did The Trick

D-Link DCS-930L Cloud Wireless IP Camera, Mydlink Enabled
D-Link DCS-930L Cloud Wireless IP Camera, Mydlink Enabled

Pros: 1) Some claim the picture wasn't very clear over 3 feet or so from the subject. The Firmware vs 2.12 seems to have cleared this up. 2) Price 3) Quality of Picture 4) Easier to access Tech than a lot of Companies (even though the young lady may have been reading from a tech manual, she did OK)

Cons: 1) The install wizard is not a whole lot of help if your network is not set to 192.168.0.xxx. The third set of numbers MUST be a zero (0) or you will have to disconnect your computer from the net reconfigure your computer IPV4 settings to match the camera then change the camera IP to match your router, then change your computer back to match your router. The D-Link cloud software "mydlink" that you can sign up for (free) seems buggy.

Overall Review: I got it in one (1) day, ordered @ 0930hrs and thanks to On-Trac picking up late in the afternoon, I had it the next day by noon.

I know better than to deal with Marketplace.

I got it but it took 10 days in the same state. Item was drop-shipped and delivered by the jungle/river in South America. Would've been quicker and cheaper to purchase from the jungle/river.
