Pros: 400GB (upgraded from 60GB), Perp recording, fast. Dead silent when idle.

Cons: VERY noisy when at load. Crackles like crazy.

Overall Review: Overall pretty good drive if you don't care about noise.

Pros: I've owned this monitor for over 1.5 years. Never had any complaints with picture quality for regular PC use, gaming, video, etc. Good amount of inputs.

Cons: I have two major gripes with this monitor. 1. Touch sensitive buttons. I don't know why any human being would think this was a good idea, because it's not, it's a downright terrible one. If it's dark, forget about it, buttons are unusable. 2. How long the monitor takes to wake from sleep. I thought that I would get used to this after some time, but it just gets more annoying every day. It takes exactly the same amount of time to wake from sleep as it does to turn the monitor on with the power button, about 11 sec. It takes my PC about 5 more seconds to turn on. This is just obscene. What exactly is the point of a sleep mode if it doesn't wake fast? Not only this, but sleep mode cannot be turned off or adjusted AT ALL. Sometimes I just wanna slap designers and engineers for their incompetence.

Overall Review: Overall, I don't think I would recommend this monitor to anyone unless it was for a ridiculous price. While the picture quality is great, the two cons I listed are just so incredibly annoying that I wouldn't wish it on anyone else.
