Brilliantly Simple
Pros: I make custom computer cases. Rugged and traveling cases. These hard drive cages are perfect additions my designs, and have kept my hard drives working cool.
Cons: The screws are somewhat difficult to insert.
Garbage
Pros: When it works, it's great. Wait, no. It's a slower hub. So really, it's barely kind of okay.
Cons: It will break shortly after you get it. The power supply crapped out on mine within 2 months. It cannot power two portable drives and a card reader, even if plugged in the wall. The 2.1amp charging ports died within a month as well. Really, just trash it before you buy it.
Overall Review: I'd like my money back.
Good, but not grear
Pros: I purchased this for a portable system I use on film sets. The case it was placed in gets shipped all over. Outside of tightening the screws up once a month, it's a solid case. I replaced the stock fans with quieter ones, and the CPU cooler is a water cooled fan that sits outside the case. I have few temperature issues as a result. I wish that the interior had a few more millimeters of space vertically for a full sized PSU, but they opted against that. Much like a micro sized version of football, the case and having it fit your needs is a game of inches... or, rather, millimeters and microns. In the end, it's a solid case with lots of options and for the price I am very happy.
Cons: I wish it was easier to access the interior of the case from the front, but really, physics being what they are, I doubt anyone could make a case at this price point and have that ability.
Simple. Effective.
Pros: No noticeable speed difference.
Cons: It isn't free?
Pretty Happy About Buying This
Pros: Small. Turns on and off with a TV with a USB port. Can toss it onto an HDMI enabled monitor. Remote and, while not as fast as the Roku 3 that is a full sized device, it's perfect for what it is.
Cons: It is a little slow on the boot up, but because I share this with other people, I'd prefer it turns off with the TV. This ensures no one accidentally messes with someone else Netflix Profile, which is an odd thing to have to bring up with a roommate.
Eh. Not worth it.
Pros: Cheap.
Cons: Failed within 2 months of ownership. RMA'd. Better off buying another drive.
