Pros: Bright monitor, clear, no dead pixels, crisp text. easily on of the best monitors I've purchased in a while. Definitely love having a 27" monitor on my desk.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: I mounted this to an adjustable arm on my desk. The monitor is very light, mounting was easy!

Pros: I use my Lenovo W520 as a portable workstation. When I run VMs about 1-2x per month, I run several. At 16GB, I would run out of memory when simulating a typical installation with 1 client, 1 ADFS server, and 1 AD Domain Server. Moving to 32 GB (with 4 of these chips) solved that problem and gives me plenty of headroom in my installation.

Cons: Price isn't competitive at $/GB with 4 GB SODIMMs. But, the price has dropped from the $700+ that was being charged down to a more reasonable $114.99 (when I bought these 1/2012).

Overall Review: Installing these on Windows 7, I saw my hibernate file and page file grow pretty big. This upgrade wound up eatting up all the free space on my boot disk (a 120GB SSD). I had about 70MB left after this update. I don't use hibernation, so I turned the feature off. I also reduced the size of the page file from system managed and ~20GB down to 1-10 GB.

Pros: Put into my lenovo ThinkPad W520. I removed the DVD drive, put the 500 GB drive into the DVD spot, and made this my main boot and application disk. After hearing about the issues around SSDs (fast, but failure happens suddenly), I keep all working files (code, papers, etc.) on the 500 GB spindle. Nightly backups via HomeServer as well. That said, i love the speed and think it is worth the cost so long as the drive makes it past 1 year. Looking forward to the technology getting more longevity though. Hoping this was the year these things last 2+ years!

Cons: None

Pros: Installed into my lenovo ThinkPad W520 to bring the machine up to 16GB. Works fine.

Cons: N/A

Pros: Installed fairly easily into my Dell Studio XPS M1340. Boot after 3 days of 'learning' is about 30s. Most frequently used apps do startup quickly. Definitely peppier than the 7200RPM drive I replaced and working better than just using ReadyBoost.

Cons: None

Overall Review: After reimaging the drive from a backup, Win7 would blue screen 50% of the time during bootup. This was fixed by using the Win7 install media and 'repairing' the instance. The repair ran in under a minute and the issue went away. Also, Win7 will detect the drive and install new drivers after the reimage.

Pros: It has lots of SATA power connections. I'm using this in an HTPC that also holds copies of all my DVDs. To support a lot of disks, I wanted a power supply that can handle the load. I used this to replace a 3+ year old power supply that died. System is back and running smoothly. Took about 45 minutes to remove the old PS, insert the new one, and get the system happy again.

Cons: None.
