Great great!

D-Link WebSmart DES-1210-28P Managed Web Smart Switch
D-Link WebSmart DES-1210-28P Managed Web Smart Switch

Pros: Great interface. Gives you plenty of controls. Limit PoE, turn purts on-off. Best of all 24 port PoE. Two gigabit ports for my server... just nice.

Cons: Fan is a little loud.

Overall Review: The first one was DOA. I don't believe that DOA's should deduct eggs. But it would be great if there was a standard where users could mark a box that says DOA, and the item review would show how many DOA's there were in general. Being in IT for about 17 years, all hardware, DOA is pretty common for electronics. It's just that I wish we could see the DOA rate instantly when looking at reviews.

Ok, but hot.

ASUS GeForce 7200GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EN7200GS/HTD/256M
ASUS GeForce 7200GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EN7200GS/HTD/256M

Pros: It does what it's supposed to do. I use this card for survaillance PC's.

Cons: The card idles at around 90 degrees with no fan blowing onto it. This thing is really hot and if you don't have a cooling solution for it's heat, I would certainly not recommend this.

A Total Joke!

WIRELESS INDOOR ACCESS POINT. WIRELESS 802.11AC POE SIMUTANEOUS DUAL BAND AP. LI
WIRELESS INDOOR ACCESS POINT. WIRELESS 802.11AC POE SIMUTANEOUS DUAL BAND AP. LI

Pros: Sturdy casing. Long range. Multi SSID, Scheduling.

Cons: I think this is my first 1-egg review out of my thousands of dollars of purchases here on Newegg. I bought 3 of these AP's for 3 different customers with the promise of delivering two SSID's. One for the customer with internet only access and the other one for internal use. Come to find out it is not possible to isolate the WiFi network and the intranet unless you have a vLAN setup in the back. So, what about the "Guest Mode" option? It only prevents guests from seeing each other but they still can access the internal network. WHAT?!! D-Link support was absolutely terrible in tech knowledge. For "each" of my question, I was put on hold so the tech support (!) guy could research. Questions like "What is the Guest Mode for, then". I did not call Interface is like a 10 year old one, like the company no longer exists anymore interface.

Overall Review: I had been a fanatic D-Link fan until that phone conversation, which allowed me to find out that D-Link was false advertising their product. Good think I did not go for their security appliances. My customer brought the Guest Mode malfunction so my attention and it was a fiasco! Holding so many certs and letting this fall through almost ripped my reputation apart. I had read Shawn's review below, but I thought "he did not know what he was doing". Sorry Shawn! Stupid of my cost me so much money and time to figure this is not my fault but D-Link's.

Good

LG Super-Multi Portable DVD Rewriter with M-DISC Mac & Surface Support Model GP50NB40

Pros: Works?

Cons: Case is plastic, but for the price it's not a problem, at all.

Impressive

ORICO Tool Free 2.5 inch USB 3.0 SATA External Hard Drive Enclosure for 2.5" SATA HDD and SSD Support UASP and  6TB Drive Max -Black
ORICO Tool Free 2.5 inch USB 3.0 SATA External Hard Drive Enclosure for 2.5" SATA HDD and SSD Support UASP and 6TB Drive Max -Black

Pros: Cheap. Tool-free (awesome!!). Works over USB 2.0 without a Y cable. Drive does hold strong in the box.

Cons: Case is plastic, which wouldn't deduct an egg, at all.

Overall Review: For the price, this is really a great enclosure. I transferred a single 3.09GB file in 34 seconds over USB 3.0, which includes ejecting the drive, too. This is just under 100MB/s transfer. My disk is a 5400RPM drive.

Works pretty good fore me

SYBA SD-PEX40044 PCI-Express 2.0 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) RAID Caddy Controller Card
SYBA SD-PEX40044 PCI-Express 2.0 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) RAID Caddy Controller Card

Pros: Saved me lots of room in my Supermicro case with a Supermicro MB. No problems. Using RAID 1. Using two Corsair SSDs and no problems so far

Cons: Driver is not recognized automatically by Windows. Won't deduct an egg for this, as this happens with HP, Dell, IBM cards, too. You have to present the driver when you install the OS and also get into Windows Recovery mode.
