Solaris zfs Ready!
Pros: I built a NAS with 2 of these cards and I am getting excellent performance with cheap 5400rpm 4k sector "green" drives. Solaris 11 express recognized it immediately. This is the card you want for your zfs RAIDz array.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Don't waste your time and money trying other cards and struggling with possible compatibility issues. THIS is the card to use for a zfs array on Solaris / FreeBSD / OpenIndiana / FreeNAS. Its huge bandwidth and ease of use make it a no brainer.
Failed!
Pros: Good when it worked.
Cons: Failed with only 500 hours of uptime!
Overall Review: I was using this as a router for about half a month before I moved. One day it would not power up, I thought it was the motherboard or the RAM. I finally got around to testing the system and it looks like the PSU went. And now that I'm out of warranty I'm stuck with a $120 brick. Terrible.
Excellent Stable Ram!
Pros: Stable at 1.5v and 2133!!!! @ 11 Clk Awesome!!!
Cons: None!
Overall Review: Awesome RAM!!! This is my first Mushkin purchase but I will definitely make them my go to brand for high performance RAM. I set the RAM to 2133 in my BIOS and 1.5v so it would work nicely with Sandy Bridge. Perfectly stable with my 4.0Ghz 2600k! Awesome!!! Mushkin makes it easy
Nice but finicky
Pros: Sleek piano black exterior, nicely designed layout, good feel, lightweight, batteries last much longer than my bluetooth mouse. Operationally it works well, but you may need to upgrade your bluetooth on your PC/phone/etc if you are experiencing dropouts, not all bluetooth is the same (just like Wireless G/N)
Cons: Keys are cheap scissor-switch style keys (like in a laptop), through normal use one has already popped out on me and was a royal pain to reattach.
Overall Review: Works very well as a keyboard, and if you want a sleek thing to sit on a coffee table for occasional netflix/youtube/email use, then this will function well and look good doing it.
Excellent drive
Pros: Excellent drive! Samsung hit the mark on this drive, it is the perfect drive for standard computing needs.
Cons: Heavy writes show the inherent weaknesses of TLC memory, but performance is still superior to mechnical hard disks
Overall Review: Everyone should own this.
Works Perfectly
Pros: Perfect fit to stabilize half size cards
Cons: None
Overall Review: Just the right item
