Nice product
Pros: Well made, took paint well.
Cons: none for me
Overall Review: In our new, well insulated, home, I was hesitant to bury tv cables inside an exterior wall to not mess with the vapor barrier. This was a good compromise that didn't involve cutting into insulation.
didn't last a year
Pros: Fast, while it lasted.
Cons: Installed in a little used computer. After 11 months, getting BIOHD-7 error. Unusable.
Overall Review: Buyer beware. I've had good luck with WD drives in the past. I am pursuing warranty claim with WD.
just what I needed
Pros: Works great. I got this to use with a Lenovo S12 Netbook that I had migrated from XP to Linux Mint 17. It was plug 'n play all the way. GNOME PPP is the dial-up software. The netbook lacks its own modem, and having only dial-up at a remote cabin, I didn't want all the baggage that my WIn 7 laptop brought doing too many involuntary updates over a creaky phone line.
Cons: none so far
Overall Review: Some people ask why dial-up? It's so ancient. Answer: sometimes there's nothing else available, but wow, is it slow! Still, it can be faster than driving to town for some wi-fi.
one out of two
Pros: the other one worked
Cons: Dead on arrival. Now I get to spend $10 to ship it back for another try. I expected better from Western Digital.I probably have too many of their drives. This was a "red' WD, presumably better quality for NAS use. Fooled me.
Great! Happy!
Pros: Great monitor, very bright, a big step up from my previous, although old, 17" LCD monitor. Great price. Same height as previous so it fits my desk area using a wall mount. It arrived less than 24 hours after order thanks to Newegg and UPS as I live 1 day away from the warehouse via UPS. Your mileage may vary.
Cons: No speakers, but I knew that. Overcome by being the same height as predecessor. Other external speakers will suffice.
Overall Review: Like an old, crafty trout lying in wait in a stream, many lures get trolled past by Newegg and others. Some, like this, get a rise and a bite. Happy trout. Happy Newegg?
