Pros: It is small, it is fast, well priced, has a very sleek look and has no issues on any system I have used it on so far

Cons: It is small, very small. I got the one in brushed looks like Stainless. It is so slick and so small, that when lying flat on the desk, it is hard to pick up with my large fingers. It will also easily slip out of your fingers when you do manage to pick it up

Overall Review: Overall it is very nice. One can add a key chain or the like to make it easier to handle but also that adds weight and detracts from its sleek look. Nice product with a minor catch 22. They could have put some knurling on one end or the other, or possibly on the sides to make it easier to pick up, still would look great.

Pros: absolutely none

Cons: Bought this from a shell shocker ad, I didnt expect it to be great for the money, but I didnt expect it to fry my equipment either. Totally cooked my Zen V+. I am afraid to use it on anything else now, no refund, and I most certainly dont want another. Do your self a favor DO NOT BUY THIS. I would give it Zero eggs, but thats not possible.

Overall Review: Should have known better, you get what you pay for, some times you get your equipment cooked in the process

Pros: Good Software

Cons: If this is OEM system builder software, and from what I know about this kind of stuff, keep in mind that that is exactly what it is, System builder software, making what you are getting nothing more then trial versions of both software, not full one year or longer subscriptions. Expect 60 to 90 days.

Overall Review: Thinking about it, why would you pay for software you can download for free and transfer to a new build, thus not risking it in any way to unprotected contact with the internet.

Pros: It is a solid State drive, Beyond that none

Cons: As others have stated, the read/write speeds don't even come close to what the Manufacture claims. Even after making sure I had all the proper updates for my machine and updating the firmware from Patriot website, I get at best 200/192 read/write with this drive using full SATAIII with proper cables in AHCI mode. Can’t send it back, which I would if I could.

Overall Review: Although it is faster than my WD Blacks, by a bit less then a quarter margin, it is very disappointing considering other SSD drives seem to almost meet the 600 mark. I could not in good conscience recommend this drive to anyone

Pros: I really like this cooler.The only thing I think that might be better is a high end water cooler. This unit keeps my i7 under load at 43c. It has a very good positive mounting system, much better then some of the zalman cooler of my past purchse. In my Antec 900-II with all fans on low, it cant even be heard.

Cons: had a bit of an issue with the supplied resister connector trying to get accurate fan speeds displyed, but that i belive was a problem with my MSI control panel rather then the fan. So I just plugged it raw and set fan speed in bios to 1000 rpm and left it at that, it cools very well

Pros: Nice drives, i bought two for a new build a while back. They seem to run about mid range for heat, no undue noise and as of yet I have had no issues with them. I own many WD blacks if variging sizes and have only had one fail in over 5 years

Cons: I was hopeing for a bit better windows 7 score. The drive is my lowest rating. of 5.9 where everything else in the system is 7.2 or above. I guess to get that good windows score a raptor will be the only way. But I dont need the score bad enough to shell out the money for the raptor or SSD yet
