Pros: +This product has Best USB 3.1 Gen2 performance out of all similar products that I've dealt with. (transfer speeds matching that of my previous internal SATAIII hot-swap docking bay setup) +Nearly no data transfer hangups.

Overall Review: Highly recommend to those stuck with an external docking station for access to the drives and storage space. I used to have internal hot-swappable docking bays previously (which were extremely good); and now with the new tower design and new hardware set up, I have lost those handy tower bays and had to go for an external docking station. I tried another product which caused massive data transfer hangups, until I found out about this great product by Star Tech, and I never looked back again.

Pros: +Absolute convenience of tool-less design (pure Plug'n'Play joy!) +LED LCD display and "instrument cluster" +Interactive fan control with audible sound signal (funky!) +Key lock

Cons: -Not much to be said here, other than a very slightly clumsy way of inserting the HDD due to bay door not opening more than 90 degrees angle. I may still not be very experienced at this stage.

Overall Review: Would definitely buy tower bay devices with an interactive LCD interface. Just makes the typically mundane computing so much more appealing, enter the sci-fi era!

Pros: +Saves space (about 1" or 2" space) for a PC that's near a wall, makes it easier to put the PC closer to the wall.

Cons: -Would be nice to have a right angle connector cable but facing the other side as well.

Pros: +More operational features than any other mobo maker for an equivalent price point +Could switch between a variety of Operating Systems without having to spend any extra time in the bios setting up the bootloader sequence (nearly a 'Plug and Play' feature as compared to other motherboards I had experience with). +More usb ports, pci-e sockets. +Great for any task ranging from work type (professional) and gaming/entertainment (enthusiast). +Great driver support. Edit: Asrock customer support is great.

Cons: -Soft LED style.

Overall Review: -A month in of use after the purchase, my motherboard seems to have stopped working. Due to the busy schedule during last weeks of exams, I have regrets for not purchasing local warranty support on time. Sent to the manufacturer instead, but the process is lengthy (it's been a little more than a month since I've been left without a system to work). Edit: Asrock customer support is great, got the item RMA'd within month time frame using manufacturer. Note that If I went with the reseller warranty (purchase of additional Newegg warranty), then I'd have the item replaced within a week.

Pros: -Great aesthetics (even though this one has no rgb, it still looks nice). -Has 4000 MHz with some of the faster latencies around as compared to similar 4000 MHz products from other makers.

Cons: -No complaints so far, there is another version of TridentZ 4000 MHz but with rgb though.

Overall Review: I recommend this product to those interested in good ratio of faster latency and high MHz.
