Great SSD

SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 500GB SATA III 32 layer 3D V-NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E500B/AM
SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 500GB SATA III 32 layer 3D V-NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E500B/AM

Pros: I picked this up when it was on sale for $174. In any case, so far it has been perfect in my Macbook Pro. The read and write speeds are in the low 500's, which is certainly fast enough for my needs.

Cons: None that I can think of. This is my second EVO drive and am very satisfied.

Most Critical Review

Will "Any OS" work on this?

GIGABYTE GA-MA78GPM-DS2H AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-MA78GPM-DS2H AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: None

Cons: I simply cannot understand how any OS can be installed on this thing. XP Pro, Vista Premium, and a variety of Linux distro's refuse to take. Junk

Overall Review: If you like watching your new board hang at every install, this a perfect choice.

Great monitor

Pros: I've had this monitor for over three years. Yeah, sure the stand is a bit wobbly, but I don't mind. It's not as though I'm always bumping into my desk. The image quality has been outstanding since I've owned it.

Cons: The power brick can get a bit hot. Make sure it's placed in the open.

Overall Review: For the price you can't beat it

Don't listen to the nay sayers

Windows 8.1 Pro - 64-bit
Windows 8.1 Pro - 64-bit

Pros: This is a solid OS. It's easy to install and manage. I've got it running on an Intel i5 processor with 8GB RAM, and this thing is fast. I also have WAMP installed and use Wint8.1 for development as well. To date no problems at all. If you have the intellectual capacity exceeding a doorknob, you won't have any difficulty picking up on the changes incorporated to Win8.1.

Cons: Can't think of any.

Overall Review: I am thoroughly convinced the overwhelming majority of comments made here are from people who have never tried Win8 much less own it. I set 8.1 to login directly to the desktop. I mention that in the event you have any concerns about the tiles.

Great little item

Pros: Simple and compact. Can't ask for much more.

Cons: None that come to mind

Overall Review: The price point is perfect for what it does. No reason to spend a ton of money on a CF card reader.
