Pros: Illuminated keys that you can read in the dark! Firm, but not loud key clicks. Beefy design (for a keybord anyway). Ability to easily change the keyboard illumination and PC volume from the keyboard (just above number pad).

Cons: wasn't free? But seriously, I think it is ever so slighly over priced for a keyboard. That withstanding... I already ordered 2 and next week will probably order a 3rd for the house.

Overall Review: I have an older Saitek keyboard (~5years old) that has an identicle layout and overall design. The main difference being the old one did not have laser etched keys. If I could, I would order replacement keys for it. They make a great product.

Pros: installed, spun up, showed proper capacity and connection speed in BIOS and OS.

Cons: 1 of 4 drives was bad. it vibrated so violently it shook the server. I checked the SN at HGST and it stated "The drive is not valid for warranty through HGST. Please return product to your point of purchase." Reading other's reviews, these are old junk drives that are being rebranded. I'm returning all 4 drives as I can't afford to use junk in a server environment... even if it is just a test lab.

Overall Review: - will not purchase again - will not recommend to others to use.

Pros: Strong looking rails. The rollers/rails themselves seem to be very well built and most everything seems to be thick steel.

Cons: These are NOT "universal" rails... 1) These CANNOT be used for 1U chassis. Even though they bolt into a 1U slot, are physically just (barely) over 1U in height. So, you need at least 1.3U of rack spacing... which essentially means 2U to get the bolt pattern to line up. 2) These are just flat out too wide for any of the servers I currently own. I have several 1U Supermicro servers at 16 13/16ths inch (42.7cm) wide and a single 4U Rosewill server at 16 15/16ths inch (43cm). All my routers, switches, patch panels and servers are mounted or sitting in a 4 post 25U open frame StarTech rack (only one server previously had rails, the others were temporarily stacked... hence why I bought these). These rails barely fit onto the Supermicro servers (with some pushing and finagling) but, the server chassis ultimately needs to be at least a few mm narrower to fit properly without fuss (probably <= 42.5cm). In the end it wouldn't matter because even if I could get them to work they rails are over 1U in height. Given the Rosewill case is even wider, no matter how many times I altered the mounting on the server, I couldn't get it to work. When the rails were shifted to be wide enough to fit the chassis width, they were too wide to slide in and out of the rack cage (they kept hitting the vertical mounting post preventing the server from being pulled out). So, these are completely useless for my needs. 3) All the screws that came with the kit have countersunk screw heads. That works fine with their screwy washer system to attach to the front and rear rack posts... but really sucks for mounting the L-brackets to the rails. Those screws should have been pan or button head screws. Going along with that, there were no washers for the nuts used in mounting the rails to the L-brackets, so the tiny nuts tend to dig into the screw slot when you tighten them. 4) The L-bracket uses proprietary square washers which at first thought lets you slide your enclosure flush to the rack and potentially use another screw through the dog ear to hold it in place. However, although the L-bracket has extra holes drilled in it... none of them line up with the middle post hole! (trivial considering all the other flaws) 5) The release tabs that allow you to completely remove/detach the server has to slide over a screw slot. The tabs are just cheap plastic and get pushed into the slot when you try to slide them up/down for release. This prevents you from being able to push them far enough to conduct a release! Seriously? You can't mount any screws in that spot anyway, otherwise the tabs cant be move at all. So, why put a slot there? You could maybe put a piece of tape over the slot so the release tab doesn't fall in; but, that was some seriously poor engineering by iStarUSA.

Overall Review: In all, these unfortunately don't work for my setup. However, for others with appropriately sized chassis, they might very well work fine. But, given all the other flaws I noted above, I still can't bring myself to give it more than 2 eggs. I had high hopes for these and iStarUSA engineering fell through on delivering a good quality product. I'll be contacting Newegg to see if they can be returned/refunded.

Pros: Cost & Performance

Cons: Driver issues: When I did a clean slate install of XP on an old system, I downloaded the newest drivers from nVidia's website. XP asked for a reboot and when windows reloaded it went to a black screen. I entered safe mode and removed the driver. Then using windows updates downloaded the MS driver... Same issue. I went back to nVidia's web site and noticed that the newest driver pack covered the 6000 series all the way up to the newest 500 series. I thought that there may be a conflict due to the 10 generations of cards being covered (and that this card is AGP, not PCI-E). So, I went through the selection process again and said I had a 5000 series card instead wich backed up the driver to an older version where the 6000 series was smack in the middle. Once loaded, the card worked flawlessly. In hind sight, perhaps I should have just tried loading the driver off the provided CD. :)

Overall Review: I bought this card for reviving an old MSI workstation MB so I could do some remote server maintenance and occasionally surfing the web. So, not having the latest/greatest driver isn't that much of an issue to me. (AKA... non-gaming PC) As would be expected the 6200 is substantially better at pushing high desktop resolutions than the Riva TNT2 Ultra card it replaced. No supprise there. When at first you don't succeed... try reading the directions.

Pros: Beefy enough to not fall apart when you look at it cross eyed. (It's not a tank; but, built well) Functions as advertised. Good bang for the buck (Virtually identical to the Thermaltake model and cheaper to boot). Comes with locking SATA cables.

Cons: The fan in high speed is quite loud. Not a problem for the typically noisy server farm; but, an issue for the home user if you have it in your bedroom or in a media PC. Also, trying to operate the locking device has a tendancy to pop the handle out. It doesn't eject/disconnect the drive; but, it is annoying all the same. Since I don't swap drives too often and I put the backplane in a server in my basement, I'm still giving it 5 eggs.

Overall Review: The screws used to hold the drives in the tray are unique in my book. They have a very thin head. Perhaps this is normal for this kind of backplane; but, I don't have any spares like this and I wouldn't know where to get more if I lost any of them. Keep track of where they go when changing out your drives!

Pros: Good ergonomics, nice features, nice price. Works as good as any of the Logitech products I've ever used over the years.

Cons: The first one I ordered was DOA. I sent it back under RMA, but ordered 2 more right away with high hopes. I was not dissapointed with the next 2. They performed flawlessly.

Overall Review: I could try to be mad over recieving a DOA... but it happens now and then with almost everyone. I still give it 5 eggs.
