Pros: price, size, speed class 6

Cons: failed during vacation, i thought i lost my photos but luckily was able to recover files. Will no longer format in canon t2i, hangs osx, only readable with win7, used free recovery software to recover files. was taking a mix of photos and 1080p video on the card before failure. Have email into patriot support, waiting to hear back.

Pros: Fit perfect into my Silverstone GD SST-GD04B HTPC Case. I was thinking about the 120mm version of this heatshink, but Im glad i didnt.

Cons: Fan produces high pitched sound at certain RPMs, exactly what you dont want in a cooler for an HTPC. I am currently looking for a replacement fan. Uses horrible push to lock connectors to MB for 775 socket. Would have preferred another method.
