Fast and Easy

Wintec FileMate 32GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Model 3FMSP02U3SL-32G-R
Wintec FileMate 32GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Model 3FMSP02U3SL-32G-R

Pros: Works Fast with no problems in Windows 7 on both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. Compact design fits into small/crowded USB port areas. Red LED is a little bright, but it's better than not having an LED indicator like some flash drives. Cheap price, cheaper than many USB 2.0 drives with the same capacity.

Cons: Would be nice if it included a lanyard cord. But this is not a big con, lanyards are cheap and easy to get.

Most Critical Review

Slow write speeds. Can't format

Silicon Power 32GB Blaze B02 USB 3.1 Flash Drive (SP032GBUF3B02V1K)
Silicon Power 32GB Blaze B02 USB 3.1 Flash Drive (SP032GBUF3B02V1K)

Pros: Cheap. Bought on sale 3 for $12.

Cons: These flash drives can't be reformatted to the NTFS file system to hold files larger than 4Gb. Also you can't change the volume label name. Windows 10 formatting just locks up when you try to format. Also when you write files to this drive in FAT32 it is very slow.

Overall Review: I would NOT recommend this product. Spend a couple more dollars and get something better.

Frustrating

BIOSTAR TA770 A2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard
BIOSTAR TA770 A2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Good price, Good Features, Phenom compatible

Cons: VERY picky about memory !!!

Overall Review: I have built quite a few computers with Biostar mobo's and they are usally excellent mobo's and easy to build. This one has the worst memory compatibility I've seen. Tried OCZ Platinum, Corsair XMS and PQI Turbo and they all didn't work. I finally tried Crucial Ballistix and it worked. The Biostar boards I have used before worked with any kind of memory. I bought 3 of these boards and they all have the same problem. Flashed the BIOS to the newest version and that didn't fix the compatibility issue. Newegg was great as always ! Let's hope Biostar gets their quality control back.
