Perfect

Pros: Gold-plated & thick, so the perfect picture it makes when new will last.
Cons: N/a
Overall Review: It's not hard to make the perfect cable, if you are willing to put quality materials & workmanship into the product.
OK, not great

Pros: Comes in black, so you don't have to paint. Also included all cables, 3 thermisters, and a battery for the built-in clock. Also has a very loud alarm.
Cons: You can only set the "max" temperature...there is no setting for the temp where the fan goes to full speed, it seems they only go full speed when in alarm mode (the alarm beeping). Also, it is very hard to read the display from an angle, so unless you keep your computer ontop of the desk, you can't read the display.
Overall Review: I keep my PC in my bedroom, so noise is very important. Although this does lower the amount of fan noise, it constantly changes the fan speed, this makes it harder to sleep than the slightly louder but constant drone that I had before. Also not designed for the new 4-pin CPU fans, but I'd rather use the mainboard for that anyway. Also, I bought two to control 6 fans, but they only display "CPU", "case front", and "case rear"...there is no way to program something like "Hard Disk 1" or "Video Card"...It would be nice if they just made it s bit bigger so it fits a 5.25" bay and controls more fans. Whatever you do, don't bother buying two to conrr
Dissapointing

Pros: Nice looking graphics...at least for a while.
Cons: It's a shooter with no autoaim or mouse support. Downright annoying soundtrack that repeats so frequently that you will be tired of it before the install completes. Weapons are cartoonish at best.
Overall Review: This game is getting sold to gamestop.
Better than expected

Pros: This is a nice, solid feeling drive that is rather quick for the price. Speeds are higher than I expected, and the slider thing works smoothly. Also looks kinda cool.
Cons: I have only had it one day, and it already has pocket lint stuck in it...the slider cover does not keep any of this out. The speed could be better...but it is much faster than I expected after using various other Kingston flash drives.
Overall Review: I don't regret buying this...that is saying a lot for cheap flash memory.
Problematic, noisy

Pros: Big...but that's what I paid for.
Cons: This drive does not work with my 3ware RAID controler. It puts itself into power saving mode every 3-20 minutes, and removes itself from the array. This causes the controler to try to rebuild the data. The rebuilds never finish, because the drive always disconnects first. I have the latest firmware for my controller (3ware 9690SA), and WD does not offer the fixed firmware on their site (the production date indicates that it would have come with a newer firmware anyway).
Overall Review: This drive is slower and more expensive than the 3 seagate 1.5TB units I already had working for over a year without issue. I only bought it because of an incorrect belief that the drive would be quiter than my seagate 7200RPM drives (last time I'll believe a forum's advise). This has not been the case...this 5400RPM drive is a lot louder when operating, and it makes a loud "click" every time it goes into or comes out of the powersaving mode that cannot be turned off, and which activates itself in the middle of sustained disk writes!
How to use with a video game

Pros: To remove the two-second delay on live TV, go into regedit and search for keys titles "LivePreview" and "LiveDelay"...You should find several. Change the data from each to "1". This will eliminate almost all delay.
Cons: -
