Great HDD

Cavalry CAUM 1TB USB 2.0 3.5" External Hard Drive with OTB for PC CAUM3701T3-B
Cavalry CAUM 1TB USB 2.0 3.5" External Hard Drive with OTB for PC CAUM3701T3-B

Pros: Very cool running, ran for one hour and the case was still cool to the touch. Very sturdy high quality feeling case. The Western Digital WD10EADS hard drive is inside.

Cons: The tamper seal is placed on top of the clear protective packaging film making it impossible to remove the film completely without voiding the warranty. Not a big deal.

Overall Review: After researching the terabyte drives extensively I finally decided the Cavalry drive had the biggest bang for the buck. My research however lead me to believe that a Samsung Spinpoint HDD was inside the case, but mine came with a WD installed (a definate plus). Bottom line, if you like the drive then don't hesitate to buy it, you won't be dissapointed.

Most Critical Review

used to be good

COOLMAX CX-400B 400 W ATX v2.01 Power Supply
COOLMAX CX-400B 400 W ATX v2.01 Power Supply

Pros: was a very quiet power supply that did its job well while it was still working

Cons: stopped working after nearly two years of use. started showing signs of wear after the first year (turning off without warning, etc..).

Overall Review: only buy this one if you just want a year or so of usage... i consider it a disposable power supply. other reviewers that have had it a while seem to share my experience.

Great monitor

Comments: I ordered two of these and one of the Samsung 915N panels. No complaints what-so-ever about these panels, picture quality is outstanding, no dead pixels, and very very minimal ghosting. Switched to these from 17" CRTs and haven't looked back since. Don't hesitate to buy, very solid product.

Excellent picture quality

Comments: Great monitor with the exception of some minor light bleeding along the top edge. Also, the buttons on mine look as though they were crushed and are hard to use as a result. If not for the messed up buttons it would have been a five. No ghosting to speak of. If your unsure about switching to LCD for CRT don't hesitate, this LCD is much better.

Comments: Was very pleased with this hard drive, used to replace a 10GB 4200 in xxxxxxx. Major speed increase and is MUCH quieter than the old drive... you can barely hear it in a dead quiet environment. Ussually use Seagate, but thought I'd save a few bucks with this drive, so far so good. Would recommend to anyone. Newegg was perfect as ussual.

Great Burner

Comments: Very good burner considering the price. The eject button and volume dial have a cheap look about them, but the burner itself does a great job. Could not be happier for the price. Don't waste your money on anything else. NewEgg is unbeatable!
