Most Favorable Review

Good storage unit at a reasonable price.

WD 2TB Elements Portable Hard Drive USB 3.0 Model WDBU6Y0020BBK-EESN Black
WD 2TB Elements Portable Hard Drive USB 3.0 Model WDBU6Y0020BBK-EESN Black

Pros: Plugs in, boots up loads into Win computer no sweat. USB 3.0 one cord is always a bonus. Transfer time is OK.

Cons: The plastic case is noticeably sharp around the top edge of the unit. Possibly sharp enough to cause a plastic cut. Suggest using an emery board to remove that.

Overall Review: i would recommend this unit. It's at the lower end of the price range but if it lasts as long as some of my higher-priced units, or my 'cheap' HDs, I'll be happy.

iPhone Charger Cable, Nurbenn MFi Certified Lightning Cable 4 Pack[3/6/6/10FT]Extra Long Nylon Braided USB Charging & Syncing Cord Compatible iPhone Xs/Max/XR/X/8/8Plus/7/7Plus/iPad - Silver/white

Pros: 4 pack of phone cords

Cons: They worked until they didn't. 4 months. The Wife must have been abusing them. One over heated and blew out.

Overall Review: Maybe I should stick to the brand.

Ryzen 9 looked great dor abour 3 seconds. Then Poof! It was gone.

AMD Ryzen 9 5950X - Ryzen 9 5000 Series Vermeer (Zen 3) 16-Core 3.4 GHz Socket AM4 105W None Integrated Graphics Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000059WOF

Pros: The Ryzen 9 5 950x was rated compatible with my Gigabyte AB 350 MB. No problem getting bios upgraded as suggested or the chip mounted etc. The problem started when the computer rebooted. The "American Megatrends' screen flashed on but the system crashed before the bios boot. It wouldn't start again. The chip was super hot after running for about 15 seconds, I read on discussions that heating can be a problem requiring cooling of the chipset (?) and a really ddot cooling systen - I thoght I had a very effective contact cooler. fans etc. Anybody have the same problem>

Overall Review: USE this with a Motherboard that isn't the 'limit for chip compatibility.

Does exactly whast you would expect it to do.

Wavlink USB 3.0 To USB C SATA Dual Bay External Hard Drive Enclosure for 2.5" & 3.5" HDD with UASP (6Gbps) SSD Enclosure 12V 3A Power Adapter [Support 2x 8TB]  Duplicator/Clone and One Button Backup

Pros: User firiendly. On off switch allows the unit to remain attached when not in use. Sustained use seems fine 72+ hours w/o heating or connectivity issues. It's like having a portable drive attached. Up to 2T fast mount and search search time. Transfers on and off no problems at all Dual bay permits easy automatic cloning, transfers, disk copying etc

Cons: No downsides yet.

Overall Review: This is the perfect unit if you have a number of old disk drives lying around that you wanted to check before ersing for disposal. Great value for the cost.

Just as I expected

Pros: It works

Cons: None yet. These either work or they don't. They'll work longer than the warranty period or they'll pack in and we'll see how the warranty works.

Overall Review: Nice compact little unit. Good capacity for the price.

Rosewill NEON K85 RGB Wired Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Kailh Blue Switches, 10 RGB LED Backlight Effects with Additional Luminescence, 104 Keys, NKRO, Anti-Ghosting, Multimedia Control Keys

Pros: Great RBG lighting and programming. Configurable keys. 'Raised keys - ie no dirt 'wells' Sets up easily, support accessible.

Cons: Some key figures are hard to make out : all enclosed figures have a strange 'sprue' effect where part of the character seems 'blacked out'. No problem for touch typists.

Overall Review: Good substantial unit, programable for individual uses and taste. Reasonable price.

Canada Post

The pandemic has hit Canada Post hard. It may have hit anything from China and Canada Customs even harder. The good news, the cables arrived yesterday. I'm still waiting for things that were shipped from China two months ago.
