Sabrent ECS-U35K Ultra, Good product for the price..

Good product for the price -Satisfied-
For the price, this product does the job. The instructions were a little poor. For example, they state to set the drive jumper to “master”. Well, I did that and it did not work. I really had to set the jumper to “single”. After I got that figured out, [...]

Great board, good price, easy install
I have this board in my home desktop and love it. Unfortunately I have gone thru one of them under warranty and decided to have a spare on-hand in case it happened again,so I bought one thru Amazon. The one in the computer died again, and having this purchased one [...]

Western Digital WD2500JB, WARNING - not what the..

WARNING - not what the description says!
The description for this product says “Full kit includes drive cables, installation and management software, and illustrated instructions”. All I got was an OEM drive… just the drive with no cable, rails, software, instructions or anything else. I don’t know if an underpaid stockboy just screwed up [...]

Toshiba DVR620 DVD/VHS, Great VHS/DVD Recorder

Great VHS/DVD Recorder
I have used this recorder over the last three months to copy all my home VHS tapes to DVD. Previous reviews of other Toshiba VHS/DVD recorders complained about problems with created DVD’s playing in other devices. Also complaints of complicated manual instructions and complicated remote controls. I have found this new [...]

SimpleTech PRO1000Q Pro, Multiple FireWire 400..

Multiple FireWire 400 Failures
I needed another large capacity external hard drive that was both USB 2.0 and FireWire 400 compatible. The SimpleTech PRO1000Q looked to fit the bill perfectly.
Unfortunately, when the drive arrived I found that, while the USB interface worked fine the drive refused to mount at all using FireWire 400. I tried it [...]

Every person will have diff Camcorder needs, this one fit mine
My current camcorder is over [..], and I found that I just wasn’t using it much anymore. Two reasons: It was a little big to carry around, and it recorded to tape, so deleting ‘bad’ scenes was not practical until it got to [...]

Comes with everything you need.
I’ve been using this for a few months and I’m probably going to get another one soon. I’ve checked out other drives with esata, and they were more expensive and/or didn’t have the esata accessories. Also, some of the esata drives didn’t have USB 2.0 and just had esata. [...]

What in the hell is wrong with Western Digital
If you are just looking to add an additional drive for storage, don’t buy this new version of My Book Essential. Especially if you plan to buy more than one (which you of course should unless it’s purely a backup drive). You will regret it unless you [...]

First Rate Drive; Great for Consolidation
I was fairly puzzled why this drive is designated a P-ATA when the thing installs like a regular S-ATA. The Drive Designation and the package on the box I have are exactly the same as the above advertised item.
I was looking to consolidate three external drives on [...]

Poor backup option in image mode
If you purchased this drive and software (as I did) to restore after system crashes you may be in for a rude surprise - the included Safetydrill software does not (as claimed) delete older versions of backups as required to make space for newer ones, instead it MOVES them to [...]
