Pros: This is a single layer drive! And it's under 100 bucks! It won't suffer the dismally short lifetime of the Multi-layer solid state drives, it has much faster read times than all but the top notch MLC drives out right now. This would be a perfect second drive to run a couple applications or modern games from. Since it would last for many many years, you'd be able to carry it over with upgraded machines for the foreseeable future.

Cons: It has lower data density and slightly lower write times but this is the trade-off of Single Layer design. The longevity and higher read speeds than most MLCs more than make up for these shortcomings in many users applications.

Overall Review: This drive is suited to a different market than the MLC drives. If you're looking for the speed of a SDD, with the longevity of a mechanical drive, the SLC type drives are for you. If you are after ultra-high write speed and higher capacity and don't mind skimping on the read speed a little, and don't mind a shorter life drive, go for MLC. Please don't down-rate this drive without researching a little on the technology. Google "MLC vs SLC" to do some more in-depth reading on the subject.

Pros: The only pro I can think of is that I didn't buy two of these things.

Cons: Utter garbage. Only 4 of the LEDs worked after the first use; of which one is blue and another blinks constantly.

Overall Review: I did an autopsy on this thing: The LEDs weren't soldered at all, the positive leads were twisted together in the center to form the positive terminal and the negatives were compressed against the casing and switched at the back. Despite the lack of solder, continuity looked fine. The LEDs they chose just weren't up to the voltage being pushed through them in parallel like this. I couldn't identify them but the quality appears about on par with the low-end 5mm LEDs you find in cheap toys.. I'm not usually overly critical of designers/manufacturers but this product is an absolute scam. Shameful.

Pros: Great signal coverage. I can easily get good wifi signal in every room of my house as well as out into the yard. Being able to place the antenna up high and away from obstructions really helps. The wireless access point applet that comes with the card is easy to set up/use/monitor.

Cons: The card is unstable in WPA2 mode. The card will work fine for a while, then slow to a crawl or freeze entirely. The radio is still working properly; I'm getting good signal strength, just no data. Disabling and re-enabling the adapter would usually solve it for a while but an occasional hard-restart of the machine was required to get it working again. I tried several different drivers for it (including the chipset manufacturers drivers and older EDIMax drivers) as well as two other access point applets to no avail. Also tried using it in my sons WinXP Core2Duo machine with the same results. Switching the access point to WPA security mode solved the issue and it's been running without interruption for weeks now but I really don't like running on outdated encryption.

Overall Review: The card serves 3 android phones in our house and has been going strong for a couple months now. Overall good buy if you don't mind missing out on WPA2.

Pros: I purchased two of these cards for twin i7 gaming rigs for my wife and I (Valentines day gaming rigs :P ). Both have worked flawlessly. Temps are low, fans are relatively quiet, performance is just about flawless. I chose this card because of its stellar (gaming) benchmark scores for the price. There are better cards but you'll be hard pressed to get one without spending a lot more. At the current price, this is the perfect semi-budget high-end gaming card.

Cons: Haven't found any so far. HDMI and both DVI work flawlessly on both cards. Drivers installed without a hitch. No complaints at all.

Overall Review: Gamers, unless you're just swimming in money and don't mind forking out the serious bucks for the extra little bit of performance, this card is your best bet.

Pros: Bought one of these kits for an i7 3770k+Asus Z77 build. Timings and frequency were great for the price. The rig posted like a champ, BIOS detected all the latency and frequency settings, memtest passed without a hiccup. It's been running games and applications smooth and stable now for a week and shows no sign of stopping.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: It's not the fastest memory by any means but for a semi-budget gaming build, this memory is certainly one of the best performance kits in the price bracket.

Pros: It clocks and times to factory spec without a hiccup, my Asus P8Z77 posted like a champ first time out of the gate with one of these. The price was even nicer since it came free with some other hardware I was purchasing! The heat spreader sticks up into the airflow more which gives it an edge in cooling and might give a little extra overclocking potential down the line.

Cons: I'm slightly concerned about potential compatibility issues with adding another 8g stick later but it probably won't be an issue (and if it is, a BIOS flash will likely resolve it). I was a little hesitant to miss out on dual-channel mode but the performance hit seems to be negligible.

Overall Review: I'll definitely consider these for later builds.
