Pros: Looks cool. Works well, including when keyboard is not pointing at receiver.

Cons: <6 ft range.

Overall Review: I bought for htpc setup but not very good for that because of limited range.

Most Critical Review

Be Careful

Thermaltake TR2 W0070 430W ATX 12V 2.2  Power Supply
Thermaltake TR2 W0070 430W ATX 12V 2.2 Power Supply

Pros: Works great, very quiet.

Cons: Sleeves are nice for improving airflow, but very FLAMABLE! The connection to the floppy drive shorted, which caused the sleeve to instantly catch fire.

Overall Review: Be careful about getting the sleeve close to any hot components and making sure floppy connection is tight.

Works great

Rosewill Green Series RG630-2 630W Continuous @40°C,80 PLUS Certified,ATX12V v2.3,SLI Ready,CrossFire Ready,Active PFC"Compatible with Core i7, i5" Power Supply

Pros: Plugged it in and it worked. Newegg shipping was fast.

Cons: One massive fan keeps unit cool. No PS fan control/monitor.

Overall Review: Use the newegg wattage calulator to make sure your power supply is large enough to handle needs of video card(s) and rest of your system.

Awesome buy!

Western Digital WD Green WD10EADS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Western Digital WD Green WD10EADS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: 1 TB storage at 9 cents a MB! WD quality and piece of mind Runs cools and quiet. Getting 133 mb/s average seq read speed in raid 0 with 2 disks according to hdtach.

Cons: I didn't order 2 more.

Overall Review: The WD10EADS model is faster and gives better power savings than the WD10EACS model due to the reduced number of platters and increased cache. Be careful of what you are getting if you see western digital 1 TB drive on an auction site.
