Pros: Nice headsets.

Cons: Requires second cable to be usable.

Overall Review: The headsets are unusable without a second connector such as the Plantronics headset cable Mfg. Part: 49323-04. They are great headsets, but completely unusable without the connectors. Newegg doesn't carry them.

Pros: If a hard drive has to die, it is nice that it chose to do so within a few hours.

Cons: It died within a few hours. With impresively loud clicks

Overall Review: I work on PCs regularly. Sometimes it happens; hard drives sometimes die within hours or days. But I bought two other 500GB drives on the same order (same model as this one). One of those died, too. Two out of three ain't good.

Pros: The Guinness Book of World Records will be impressed by how fast it kills disks.

Cons: What a fool - had I read the reviews I wouldn't have bought this trash. My drive lasted four and a half hours. After a reboot - XP reports drive 'failed'.

Overall Review: Oh, well, it was only data. >>Heavy sigh.<<

Pros: If a hard drive has to die, it is nice that it chose to do so within a few hours.

Cons: One of two disks bought together couldnt be used as RAID. I loaded files on the disk after setting it up as an IDE disk. The disk lost formatting and of course I lost data.

Overall Review: I work on PCs regularly. Sometimes it happens; hard drives sometimes die within hours or days. But when I bought these two disks, I also bought a 250 GB on the same order (same model as this one). It died within an hour. Two out of three ain't good.

Comments: Nice, fully featured board with BIG issues. USB 2.0 doesn't work - plugging in a device or hub will actually freeze the BIOS (unplug and POST continues). It was shipped BIOS rev. 1A, I flashed the latest (10/05) 1B, and still nothing. The upgrade says it fixes USB issues - not for me it didn't. Don't they test the BIOS before going into production?? Do they think they are Microsoft? Plus - my first board (I RMAd) would let me load a hard drive (IDE), then after a few reboots it would wipe the drives - I tried 3. SATA did work. Pretty frustrating, these boards.
