Most Favorable Review

Inexpensive

Rosewill RX-DU101 Plastic 2.5" & 3.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 Docking Station
Rosewill RX-DU101 Plastic 2.5" & 3.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 Docking Station

Pros: Dirt cheap. Free with 2TB WD green drive combo.

Cons: Documentation on allocating a drive would probably be helpful.

Overall Review: Works fine. Great way to back up my WD Raptor Raid drives. Next MB will be USB 3.0 so will upgrade to faster then.

Most Critical Review

Sword of Scratches and dull paint

Diablo III Prop El'Druin The Sword Of Justice Prop Sword
Diablo III Prop El'Druin The Sword Of Justice Prop Sword

Pros: Fast shipping

Cons: Item was damaged inside of box from producer. Not display quality. Multiple long and dozens of small scratches all over item, Looks to have been packaged prior to paint drying. Wash on gold portion of sword is too dark / thick. Makes the gold appear more like fake plastic tarnished brass, or bronze. Dull, lifeless finish.

Overall Review: I would have returned it immediately but item did not show up in my new egg purchase history so did not have an easy way to request a return. Only use is to turn over to kids and have them tear it up as it is so chipped and scratches it has no other value.

Fast, but does not last

Corsair Force 2.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) CSSD-F120GB2-BRKT
Corsair Force 2.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) CSSD-F120GB2-BRKT

Pros: Fast. I've enjoyed the quick boot times, and quick loads for over a year.

Cons: I've been bitten by the bug. The drive failed, but I had a WD raptor as a back up for all my important stuff, so just inconvient.

Overall Review: I knew the risk going into the purchase, and for over a year I was loving it. Kept a back up just because of the reputation for failure. Glad I did.

Small head and ears

Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset
Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Pros: Decent sound and inexpensive

Cons: You have to have a very narrow head and tiny ears The band is super tight and the earcups are not large or deep enough so your ears are being pressed on by hard plastic internals the entire time you wear them.

Overall Review: I've tried breaking them in by placing them around a set of books and adding a book every day to stretch them out. They are still unbearable for long stints on a computer.

DOA

Rosewill RX-DU101 Plastic 2.5" & 3.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 Docking Station

Pros: Cheap, freebie with hard drive purchase.

Cons: It's a brick. System does no recognize that it is plugged in / turned on no matter what USB port I use.

Overall Review: Since it was basically free I'm not too upset, but still disappointing.
