2 Drives, NO DOA!

Pros: Reads fast and writes fast in small bursts. Lots of storage for $/GB.
Cons: With the Seagate Archive 8TB HDD its important to note that its SMR technology its designed to cope with limited or burst write activity, with no limit on read performance. While burst write speeds are in-line or surpassing traditional HDDs, sustained write performance is a weakness of this drive.
Overall Review: Here are my real world results: I am running both drives on the same ICR10r chipset. Both drives and ports are SATA3. After 1 hour 7 minutes of transfer from one 8TB to another 8TB I had transferred 339,501,514,752 bytes. I am estimating that to be ~80.54 MB/sec transfer between the two if my math on the above is correct (I am sure someone will tell me if I suck at math). After 2 hour 24 minutes I checked again 507,157,143,552 bytes estimating: 55.97948405 MB/sec After 13 hours 0 minutes I checked again 2,270,946,021,376 bytes copied, estimating: 46.27655758 MB/sec After 20 hours 20 minutes I checked again 3,389,091,655,680 bytes copied, estimating: 44.22673328 MB/sec
OCZ Service Terrrible

Pros: None
Cons: I am only getting 250mb read write speed which is what I was getting from the Vertex 2 Worst of all I sent in $20 rebate and OCZ rejected it, they include two barcodes on the box (why?) and they said it was not going to be accepted. The barcode I sent in had the SERIAL NUMBER and PART NUMBER on it, why would you want the one that doesnt have a SN number on it!?
Overall Review: After this experience I will never purchase an OCZ SSD again. I should have learned my lesson from buying the OCZ Vertex 2 that I had to RMA 3 times in less than a year.
Ordered New MPG 2390 Gaming Carbon Pro, got used Edge AC instead

Pros: None, see cons
Cons: I ordered a new MSI MPG Z390 GAMING PRO CARBON AC from "Tech Needs" but instead I got a USED open box MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC

Do not buy!

Pros: None
Cons: I purchased 2 of these, one of these blew up almost started a fire right after the warranty expired (1 yr) and the second one also exploded and thank jeebus i was home to put out the fire (it was within warranty and sent it in for replacement) wouldnt you know - after one year, the third one exploded
Overall Review: If you want to die by fire I highly reccommend this power supply for you
Awesome headset

Pros: Easy to connect, easy to use, though still learning to use some of the "extra" features (voice calling and such). The sound quality is good.
Cons: It may be difficult to hear in crowded places or if you are hard of hearing, and picks up wind ez when outside.
Overall Review: Great, I would buy again!
Awesome headset!

Pros: I think these are excellent... fades out when call comes in, fades in when call closes. The sound is excellent and there is great bass. I thought these might sound like "wireless headphones" for your TV, but they are much better than expected.
Cons: Only a petty Con from me... the + - volume control is on the left and right side of the buttons, and the Next Previous song is on the top and bottom... seems to me it should be the opposite way =P
Overall Review: Great product, I would by another one if this failed. Reccommended
Ordered a new motherboard instead got a used motherboard wrong model
I ordered a new MSI MPG Z390 GAMING PRO CARBON AC from "Tech Needs" but instead I got a USED open box MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC I tried calling them and it said to call them back during open hours M-F 9am - 5pm CST. I called them exactly at 4:45pm CST (I'm in same time zone). Now its Friday and I have to pay myself to return, or wait until Monday for them to respond to issue?
