Most Favorable Review

Kingston ValueRAM 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model KVR800D2N5K2/1G
Kingston ValueRAM 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model KVR800D2N5K2/1G

Pros: This is the one to buy if you want to use it with an Intel 965 chipset. Runs at 800Mhz with the correct timings and voltage for the Intel 965

Cons: A little more expensive...but you get what you pay for because it works like it's supposed to hassle free.

Most Critical Review

Fair Product Awful Warranty Service

OPTI-UPS Gaming Series GS1100B 1100VA 550W 6 Outlets Line Interactive UPS 6-Outlet USB
OPTI-UPS Gaming Series GS1100B 1100VA 550W 6 Outlets Line Interactive UPS 6-Outlet USB

Pros: Purchased 15 of these. Charged them up and put them in and they work well for a while anyway. Two died within 2 months the rest are beginning to have battery failure at 2 yrs. Have 3 year warranty, even on the battery, which is good but the company OPTI-UPS is bad about warranty service, and even worse about customer service and honesty.

Cons: When you read carfully on the company website it says the battery may only last 2 years. Have sent 4 back for warranty in the last 2 yrs. 2 were nearly new and were finally repaired after 30+ days. OPTI-UPS said then that they had had a bad run of boards and batterys, sure made me wonder when the other 13 I had were going to start to fail. Have sent in 2 more recently for repair under warranty in the original shipping carton with the original internal clamshells and each of them have supposedly had freight damage so bad that the battery was either physically broken or the battery has came through the side of the case, that is according to the pictures OPTI-UPS has sent me anyway. They are also careful to send pictures of the shipping box etc. and it mysteriously shows no damage. Of course they will not warranty the item if there is shipping damage and when the shipping box and material is not damaged you cannot get a claim with a shipper either. So you are stuck

Overall Review: If you buy OPTI-UPS products the warranty is not worth the paper it's written on, unless you like frustration and headaches. If I even try to ship another one for warranty .... I definately will not buy anymore... I will ship them to be signed for and inspected in front of the courier so they cannot slam it on the workbench or floor until it physically is broken so badly that they will not warranty it.

2 Red Lights always on

BYTECC U2CR-318 All-in-one USB 2.0 HUB 6 Slots All-in-1 Internal 3.5" Card Reader, Support High Capacity, SDHC
BYTECC U2CR-318 All-in-one USB 2.0 HUB 6 Slots All-in-1 Internal 3.5" Card Reader, Support High Capacity, SDHC

Pros: I hate the red lights that are always on.

Cons: I cannot find a way to turn off the worthless red lights that are always on other than take it out of my computer and throw it away.

Overall Review: The 2 red lights that are always on and never change as long as the computer is plugged are annoying.

Faulty Power Supply

Cooler Master Master Watt 550 Watt Semi-Fanless Silencio Fan, Semi-Modular 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply
Cooler Master Master Watt 550 Watt Semi-Fanless Silencio Fan, Semi-Modular 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply

Pros: Decent priced power supply and had great 5 year warranty. I bought over 20 and at least half of them have died within the first year.

Cons: Worked great for a few months and then they either smoked and stunk up the office or just quit working.

Overall Review: Absolute JUNK Computer is down to long during warranty process. Warranty process takes a month or more NOT acceptable. Wish I could just get my money back.

Great Product

EnGenius EnTurbo EnStation5-AC 5 GHz Outdoor 11ac Wave 2 PtP Wireless Bridge
EnGenius EnTurbo EnStation5-AC 5 GHz Outdoor 11ac Wave 2 PtP Wireless Bridge

Pros: Have several pairs of these even a few with 3 dishes configured as WDS PtP Wireless Bridge. Throughput is excellent. Solid bridge, continuous throughput if you get them aligned correctly, mount them line of sight high enough, and mounted where there are no obstructions.

Cons: I have to climb a ladder to install them. Easy to mount though once you get up there.

Overall Review: Very pleased with this hardware.

EnGenius EnStation5-AC Kit 5 GHz Outdoor 802.11ac Wave 2 Wireless Bridge / AP (2-pack)

Pros: I really have had great results using these in multiple locations with multiple configurations. I am an IT professional and have used many brands of wireless bridges, this model is my new favorite. I have installed over 10 sets of these with fantastic results and very satisfied customers. Throughput on these is great. I have several sets running up to six 4k resolution video cameras through them with absolutely no problems. Handles normal internet traffic with ease.

Cons: Not a con but a warning. Do not think you can use these if you do not have a clear line of sight between them and elevation is also a key factor. This applies to all and any wireless device.

Overall Review: Highly recommend these but use and understand the onsite instructions on the product website for configuration and installation.

Shipping Concerns

I purchased 2 3.5 hard drives for a NAS rebuild. They arrived promptly and on time. The issue is that they were shipped to me in a plastic bubble bag. All of the air bubbles on the bag seem to be popped and the hard drives were inside the bag together without any padding to keep them from banging against each other. Very unprofessional shipping hard drives in this way and I am amazed that they are working. I need them so I will keep them but I will NOT order more hard drives from this seller.

Waste of Time buying from this Marketplace Seller

Sent me a substitution for the Brand and model of video adapter I purchased. Contacted them and was told not to worry what they sent me would work. Waited weeks for this purchase to arrive only to be disrespected.

Bad Marketplace Seller

Never got item. Seller stalls when contacted. Month after ordering seller sends email tracking has been updated and that item was delivered a month ago when you check tracking! If you like wasting your time and money the go for it, otherwise BEWARE.
