Sweet little drive

SAMSUNG 840 Series 2.5" 250GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7TD250BW
SAMSUNG 840 Series 2.5" 250GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7TD250BW

Pros: Runs Great for the few days I've had it in my laptop. I love the speed. From all the reviews, I was under the impression that SSD's loaded programs super fast. I would say just fast and leave out the super. Photoshop still takes a while to load. I've noticed a major improvement in loading Windows Live Mail. Quick! Of Course startup is about 49 seconds from a cold boot...about half of the old HDD. Gotta love that!

Cons: Lot of Misleading reviews. I didn't use the Samsung Data Migration software that is recommended by samsung because of the reviews I read and the fact that it would only clone Drive C: and Drive D:/Recovery. I also had a drive E:/HP_Tools which I wanted cloned. So I tried Acronis migrate easy and it didn't work. Cloned one drive, the system drive. Tried it twice...same thing. Uninstalled it and tried Easeus Partition Master. Cloning 500 GB down to 250 caused all sorts of problems that required a manual setup. Needless to say the drive didn't boot. I didn't feel like spending countless hours trying to figure out Easeus, so in the trash it went. Back to Samsung Data Migration. Downloaded it from Samsung (it's not on the included disk), installed it, and cloned about 80Gig in just under 2 hours. Real Easy! Drive booted right up. I guess you shouldn't believe everything you read.

Overall Review: Wish I started with the Samsung Data Migration software from the start. Would have saved myself 3 hours or wasted cloning time and frustration. I've built many PC systems over the last 20 years and formatted, partitioned, fdisk'ed alot of Hard Drives and one thing is for certain... I always love a challenge.

Most Critical Review

Crashes in Windows 7 repeatedly after initially working for two months

Nero Recode 2014 - Download
Nero Recode 2014 - Download

Pros: Worked for a short time

Cons: Company tried to troubleshoot the product but was not successful. They finally admitted there was a bug in this version and had no fix for it and then tried to sell me an upgrade at Half price. I bought this version for $15.00 and the deal they offered would run me $35.00. Wow! What a great deal! Nero should be ashamed of themselves. Selling known non-functioning software and then trying to upsell to another version. Strange marketing techniques.

Overall Review: Fool me once shame on you, Nero. Fool me twice shame on me. I'm not biting again. Stay away from Nero.....

Works but Dashboard software does not recognize the 500GB SSD

WD Blue 3D NAND 500GB Internal SSD - SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5"/7mm Solid State Drive - WDS500G2B0A
WD Blue 3D NAND 500GB Internal SSD - SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5"/7mm Solid State Drive - WDS500G2B0A

Pros: Works well as my boot drive in windows 10 pro. Disk manager sees it. Everything works.

Cons: WD Dashboard software does not recognize the drive. Frustrating! Doing a google search proves that this is a serious issue that WD has not solved and seems not to care. Going back to crucial. Sorry, I've been a fan of WD for 20 years but they are letting me down. I've have since switched to Seagate for Hard drives and will go back to crucial and samsung for SSD's.

Overall Review: I would not recommend this product even if it's on sale. Crucial is the way to go for SSD's.

Great WIFI Extender

EDIMAX EW-7238RPD N300 Concurrent Dual-Band Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender / Repeater / Bridge, Wall Plug Design
EDIMAX EW-7238RPD N300 Concurrent Dual-Band Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender / Repeater / Bridge, Wall Plug Design

Pros: It works great! I love it. Once you figure out how to use the IQ setup and understand networking it's a piece of cake to extend wifi throughout the house. That's two floors and lots of walls. Excellent tech support.

Cons: Can be frustrating when something goes wrong and you have to troubleshoot. But it might not be the extenders fault.

Overall Review: This is my second Edimax extender. The first one I used for over a year but only supported 2.4Ghz. It worked great for almost a year then started to drop the signal. The IP address kept changing and my wireless printer didn't like that much. Very frustrating! I called edimax and tech support was very helpful and knowledgeable. They had me change the channel on my router. It seemed all of my neighbors' wifi were set to the same channel and it confused the Edimax. They also had me switch the security setting to WPA2 only. They helped me check firmware which was up to date and It hasn't skipped a beat since. Didn't need any help setting this new one up because of the experience I got on the last one. Looking forward to running this one through its paces.

Stay Away

SONY STRDH540 5.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver

Pros: Can't think of any.

Cons: Do yourself a favor and save money elsewhere. Refurbished electronics is a bad idea. It will break one week after the warranty expires and when you call for tech support you'll hear something like, "Yeah. That's a known problem. We can fix it for $100. Never again on refurbs.

Canon toner cartridge 119II

BUYNESP advertised the Canon 119II High Yield Toner cartridge for $95. Regular price is usually $155. Model number reflected the 119II cartridge. Page yield is 6500 pages. Ordered it but received the Normal yield 119 cartridge with different model number. Page yield is 2100. Big difference! Called to complain. They issued me a refund and never even suggested shipping out the correct cartridge. They said they couldn't get them. Well that smells of bait and switch tactics to me. They were hoping I didn't notice the numbers on the box. Shame on them. Stay away from this seller.
