Pros: The HDD is partitioned into two drives. The C-drive is a little less than half. A pleasant surprise.

Cons: The labels on the keyboard are beige-on-brown. Difficult to read (for me). I replaced it with an old keyboard. No problem. It does not come with a Win7 system disk. This is the first time I have had this happen. You have to generate your own system recovery disk.

Overall Review: I was asked if there is space inside for additional hard-drives. There is a seal on the case that says the warranty is voided if the case is opened, so I have not yet opened the case. There is probably space. You could always add an SSD and tape it to the side. It's a big case. I am satisfied with the purchase.

Pros: This is an update for my earlier *one egg* review called: Does not work. I expected to edit that review, but can't. So the SSD would not run on Windows 8 64-bit under SATA III. But I was advised to download a firmware ISO and boot to permit the ISO to update the SSD. After going through this procedure, the SSD is working properly. So I am moving up to *three eggs*. The SSD should be Win8 ready as sold. (To Newegg, please remove my one-egg review)

Cons: Should run on Win8 without firmware update.

Pros: I got it on sale, so it was cheap. That's good. I just finished transferring 140 gig of data with it. It was about 2 hrs and 40 minutes total. It seems that the transfer was successful. And I have the drive as a back-up. The drive did not fail.

Cons: The Setup program is very aggressive. I ran it once, figuring that I should. I did not install the back-up program. But then, every time I selected the drive from the MyComputer screen, the Setup program would start. I had to rename the program to stop this. This has not happened before to me. Then I looked around at the state of the computer after the Setup program. There were major changes. The most obvious was that my anti-virus program was shut down. There were others missing too. I decided to do a System Restore to an earlier Restore Point. That worked. This is only the second time I have done a System Restore.

Overall Review: While I was doing the System Restore, I was ready to rate this with 2-Eggs. But ignoring the problems with Setup and the Restore, I would have given it 4 or 5 Eggs. After the successful transfer, I decided to split the difference and go with 3-Eggs. I suggest you skip the Setup program.

Pros: Small and light. I can lift it with two fingers. It works. I really like getting rid of that heavy monitor. And I can also remember the old CRTs. This LED unit is a real advance.

Cons: Nothing. It does what I want.

Pros: These are rated as DDR3 1600, 8-8-8-24. The bios set them up as 1333, 9-9-9-24. So I reset to the nominal values. Then I ran Windows Mem Diag at Standard. The test froze during pass 11. Not too good. So I went back to the bios set-up with 1333, 9-9-9-24. This time it got into pass 32 before freezing. I thought it was supposed to be able to run all night without freezing. I will see how this works out in real life applications.

Cons: Maybe it is too much to expect 16 gig of memory to work perfectly all the time.

Overall Review: Under task manager, there is a sub-window called Resource (something). That let me look at how processes were using the memory. It occasionally reported a *hard fault* for memory. I don't know what that means, but the computer seemed to be working okay.

Pros: I opened the case. Put the board in a PCI slot. And turned on the computer. Easy. No drivers to load. The computer recognized the USB ports. I plugged a webcam into one of the new ports. Everything works great. I don't know how they can make a PCI card for this price.

Cons: None.

The chip arrived faster than I expected.

When the system went into the first Windows update, it hung up on the Win10 Cumulative Update. It turned out that the update package was buggy. The tech at C&C Tech Products spent 30 minutes walking me thru the fix. Great service. And the shipping was fast. Five Stars. I will buy from them again.
