Disappointing Warranty Service

GIGABYTE GA-B85M-D3H LGA 1150 Intel B85 HDMI USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-B85M-D3H LGA 1150 Intel B85 HDMI USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Worked well for over five months and then would not boot at all.

Cons: It took exactly four weeks to get the "repaired" motherboard back from Gigabyte after initiating the RMA process and it exhibited the exact same symptoms as it would not boot at all. I bought an Asus board with the same B85 chipset at a local retailer that same night, and it worked fine. I asked Gigabyte to refund the original cost of its board but was just issued another RMA to send the board in again.

Disappointing

BYTECC Bracket-25350 Dual 2.5" HDD/SSD Bracket for 3.5" Drive Bay or Enclosure
BYTECC Bracket-25350 Dual 2.5" HDD/SSD Bracket for 3.5" Drive Bay or Enclosure

Pros: None

Cons: The problem with this bracket is the holes are not spaced to allow mounting in a standard 3½" hard drive bay. I made it work but would not recommend it.

OCZ 2GB DDR2 667 (PC2 5400) Desktop Memory Model OCZ2V6672G

Pros: None

Cons: Immediate problems when installed on a Biostar MCP6P M2+ board. Over 500 errors accumulated on Memtest 86+ over a six hour period.

DOA

Nippon Labs Delux Internal Card Reader with Floppy Drive 3.5” Internal All In One Card Reader/Writer with USB2.0 & FDD1.44" & 3.5" FLOPPY DRIVE Model  ICR-EE
Nippon Labs Delux Internal Card Reader with Floppy Drive 3.5” Internal All In One Card Reader/Writer with USB2.0 & FDD1.44" & 3.5" FLOPPY DRIVE Model ICR-EE

Pros: Fit in the 3½" drive bay with no problem

Cons: The noise when reading a floppy was incredibly loud and it would not boot the computer with two different diagnostic floppies that worked fine in my other machine. And when connected, the computer took more than twice as long to boot and sometimes would not boot at all.

Overall Review: RMA'd it.

I was unable to successfully download the Acronis software that is supposed to be included with the SSD. I finally gave up and used another program to clone the old drive to the SSD.
