Creative Inspire T3030 2.1 Speaker System ( 51MF0315AA002 ) Review

Creative Inspire T3030 2.1 Speaker System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Creative is such a good computer speaker company, they deserve a lot of credit.

These are not my favorite speakers, though. The tweeter is good...Accoustic guitar or mandolin sounds as if someone is sitting right on my desk playing. The bass is pretty good, although sometimes a bit muffled on higher volume.

But the midrange seems off.Often the high range sounds good, the bass is fine, but the vocals in the mid-range get lost in it all.

The bass unit is medium sized, but it still takes up extra space. So I put it under my desk. BUT, the only volume control is attached by a cord to the bass unit. So I have to reach under the desk to turn it up or down. This is very inconvenient (in a "What were they thinking?" sort of way).

Overall, the system has trouble bringing the high end, bass and mid-range together in a coherent way.

Creative has what I feel is a much better product in the Gigaworks T20.The sound is spectacular, and the bass is built into the same unit as the tweeter and midrange.In particular, the bass shaft extends vertically up along the speaker and opens at the top. So there's no need for a separate third unit for bass. Sounds great in all ranges, has bass and volume controls on the speaker, looks good.

Given the choice betwen the T20 or this T3030 system, definitely go for the T20.

I had originally ordered this drive to give some extra life to my Dell Latitude D520, since I can't afford to save up much money for a new laptop. I do have to say, this drive is perfect, whether you are upgrading storage on a laptop or desktop. This drive came in fast, was easy to format and use from the ground up (as expected from a WD drive; the drive I received).
The price is a tad steep compared to desktop storage, but this drive was totally worth every penny.

Western Digital Caviar 250GB SATA Hard Drive 16 MB Cache ( WD2500KS ) Review

Western Digital Caviar 250GB SATA Hard Drive 16 MB Cache
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a decently fast drive that runs a bit warm with little spindle (motor) noise.

It is NOT "whisper quiet" as it has plenty of audible seek noise when accessing the drive. Unlike some other brands, there is no Acoustic Level Adjustment software available to reduce seek noise. This is really only a concern for Silent PC enthusiasts, as most PCs cooling fans will drown out the seek noise.

Curiously, the similar WD3200KS is much quieter. Or at least my particular one is.

Product Description:
WD Caviar SE16 SATA II hard drives combine 300 MB/s transfer rate and 16 MB cache for industry leading performance. Yes, these reliable drives are lightning fast, but they still deliver technologically advanced acoustics and cool operation. Fast - The one-two performance punch of 300 MB/s transfer rate, state-of-the-art performance for SATA drives, and 16 MB cache make the WD Caviar SE16 family the fastest desktop-class hard drives available. Cool - Cool operation means the highest reliability even in high-heat environments such as personal video recorders. That's why these drives, the coolest on the market, are the drive of choice for the world's leading consumer electronics manufacturers as well as the world's leading PC makers. Quiet - The technology that Tom's Hardware called "very fast and nearly silent" is repeated in this family of drives. Western Digital has minimized noise to levels virtually below the threshold of human hearing with WhisperDrive technology. And to cut seek noise, SoftSeek technology streamlines read/write seeking algorithms, resulting in the drive operating more efficiently when accessing and writing data.

This little enclosure is great.I had a 2005 vinatage laptop that died and I pulled the DVD optical drive from it before I recycled it. This enclosure came with the screws and a new tray face plate that perfectly replaced my old face plate. Once I could see the new face plate, it was not to hard to figure out what tabs to push so the old one snapped off and the new one snapped on.This enclosure is for the older IDE slim optical drives, not the newer Sata drives.

Logitech MX 610 Cordless Laser Mouse (931350-0403) Review

Logitech MX 610 Cordless Laser Mouse
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Ok, I've seen a lot of complaints about the Email and IM buttons on the MX 610.First, I don't see how these buttons should make it or break it for you anyway.If you're looking for a reliable mouse with lots of customization options, then you shouldn't even care about the Email and IM buttons.But, if you are concerned, as some seem to be, then simply download the latest driver, restart your computer and everything should work just fine...that's what I experience anyway.I own my own business and constantly receive email.Let me tell you, the flashing email indicator is a nuisance that I quickly shut off the option and recustomized the button to do something more productive.

I also want to correct another complaint.Someone mentioned you can't customize the Email and IM buttons - that's completely false.You can customize ALL 12-buttons - that's a FACT!

Ok, here's why I gave this mouse 5-stars.The ergonomics of the MX 610 should be the standard for all right-handed mice, it just feels natural in your hand.The weight with the AA batteries installed gives it a solid feel. 12-button customization makes my computer tasks so much faster and simpler.I do a lot of copy/pasting, minimizing/switching multiple windows, referencing key websites, and the MX 610 does it all!I use 2 easy to reach buttons for the copy/paste features, I use the middle wheel button to minimize my windows, I use the left/right motion of the center wheel for switching windows quickly, and even have a button that pulls up a customized window (that I created with the included software) that I can select programs and websites from!Anyone that gives the MX 610 a low score is simply not using this mouse for productive purposes, or simply doesn't understand how to customize it to fit your needs and style.

One last thing: I have a lot of wireless products nearby and this mouse hasn't hickuped yet.The wireless technology in the MX 610 is superior and I can see why Logitech focuses it's media attention on it.

I bought this card because of its memory size (128) to play games.It was affordable for me, and I needed a low profile for my slim desktop.It is decent.For a value grade consumer video card it works just fine.Not top of the line of course.Those are like 500 dollars.

This is ok for semi-graphic intensive games to just speed up a bit.You probably won't max out your graphics settings with this card, but it really beats integrated graphics by a lot.

I bought it for the sole purpose of playing Age of Empires III.My 64MB integrated graphics couldn't handle the game with the graphics settings all the way down.This card can go up to Medium (LOW MED HIGH VHIGH) but will get slightly choppy.At Low, the game runs incredibly smooth and even gives more detail than when I used my 64 card.It also cooled my computer's processor 2 C, since it has its own onboard the card.

Recommened for value users for low graphics games and a decent video card upgrade.If you're still using integrated graphics, this is a great upgrade.

To mount a 3.5" hard drive in a 5.25" (CD/DVD) bay, this is all you need...and the price is right.You may spend a few minutes trying to figure out which way is up with these guys, but install it as shown in the photo linked to this page, and you'll have no trouble.The *slots* go against the drive, and your screw driver goes through the large oval holes to tighten them down.Then there are 4 machine screw holes on the outer flange to let you mount everything to your case.

Screws are included...If you don't have nimble fingers, you'll probably end up frustrated trying to get them started.It goes without saying that you shouldn't succumb to the temptation to use a magnetic screw driver when installing a hard drive.

Creative Labs GigaWorks T20 2.0 Multimedia Speaker System with BasXPort Technology Review

Creative Labs GigaWorks T20 2.0 Multimedia Speaker System with BasXPort Technology
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Creative's GigaWorks T20 2.0 speakers are efficient, well designed and powerful. While they are a toss up with the Klipsh Promedia 2.0 set, they have enough going for them to make a case. Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 PC Speaker System- BlackUltimately, I would recommend test driving both. I like the Creative T20's overall performance and design.

Pros
+ Nice looks and high quality cables
+ Extra cable
+ Nice adapter for RCA inputs (TV, receiver, etc.)
+ Decent low-end range and base with above average mid-range
+ Nice more sturdy housing with good controls

Cons:
- Only average high-range sound
- Bass XPorts on top will collect dust
- Creative reputation is not stellar
- Cost is near the Klipsch Promedia set

Creative Gigaworks T20 have nice power with 28 watts and active speaker amplification. The cone drivers and tweeters are excellent, and the Bass Xport delivers nice thump. The bass is clearly not subwoofer equivalent, but nice for a 2.0 set. The sound is rich and clear and can be adjusted via the front knobs. Separate bass and treble knobs allow control if you know how to use them.

These speakers also simply look good. Each speaker is about 9" tall by 3" wide, allowing you to fit them easily around any workstation.

The bass ports on top require you to clean out the holes to avoid dust build-up. And Creative's reputation is also a concern, though I have had no problems myself with these. Still, Klipsch is not immune to reputation concerns either.

If you need real low-end depth, a subwoofer that comes in a 2.1 set is probably the minimum that will satisfy you. Likewise, if you are a gamer or an audio sound editor, you really should be looking at 5.1 sets.

For all other users looking for good quality in a smaller simpler set, this is worth a look. If you are a fan of Klipsh, compare these to the Promedias and make up your own mind. Enjoy.

Holy Moly! This thing is fast. My disk speed in Windows 7 experience went from 5.9 to 7.4!!!I'm giddy with excitement at how much faster my computer feels now.Previously, I had a Corsair SSD which I was pretty happy with. But I'm blown away with this drive.My only disappointment is that the actual formatted size is closer to 110GB.My previous drive was 128GB (120GB formatted).

Used Acronis Trueimage Home Acronis True Image Home 2010 to copy the disk from my old disk to new (process took less than 1hr). Have a eSATA adapter ThermaltakeBlacX eSATAUSB Docking Station which I placed the new drive in to copy the data from my old drive.Then I just swapped them (sold my old drive for $100). You might consider just using your old drive as a backup using the same setup.

This drive is perfect for the road warrior who wants performance PLUS better battery life.I'm an IT tech for a living (have been in technology for 20+ years) so I'm not easily impressed by technology.Yet, I would highly recommend this drive. After research, I decided this was the fastest drive on the market in this price range and it exceeded my expectations.

In case you don't know, be sure to use this type of drive with Windows 7 -- you can use it with XP but you won't realize it's full potential.

HP HD3000S Personal Media Drive 300 GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive Review

HP HD3000S Personal Media Drive 300 GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive
Average Reviews:

This is the second HP media drive I've owned.The first one was the 160GB drive.It is a USB-connected hard drive that fits in a slot in Hewlett Packard's Media center PCs.The only problem with it is overheating.It has a built in fan but the exhaust slots are very small and quickly clog up with lint.It can be cleaned with a toothpick, but the easiest solution is to not leave it plugged in (and running) all the time.I mostly leave it unplugged and only actually run it when I am backing up my HDD (or recovering files).

I've had this drive for a month, it's been perfect.It replaces a WD "My Book" drive of the same size.I'm sorry to say that I've had two of the WDs fail at 13 months (the warranty on them is 12 months).I'm hoping for many more years of good use from the G-Tech.Using the FireWire 400 interface it's slightly faster than the My Books were with the USB 2.0 interface.

The aluminum case and the overall design of the G-Tech certainly gives one confidence, mechanically the drive case is extremely well constructed.

If I have one negative on the G-Tech drive it's the white LED on the front, which is always on whether the drive's being accessed or not.When the drive is being accessed the LED flashes brighter.If it's in your line of sight it's like having a flashlight pointed your way, especially if the room is dark.I suppose this is just one of the many good uses for duck tape.
