These drives are (1) extremely fast (2) simple to install, just like a normal HDD, if you've had to deal with NAND you know what I mean (3) come with SSD utility, unlike some brands (4) VERY reliable, unlike other "premium" SSD manufacturers I haven't had a single SanDIsk fail...to my clients benefit!

This APC BN1080G UPS features 8 outlets to provide ample connections for your equipment. The rechargeable battery supplies up to 121 minutes of power during outages.
 

Does the PowerChute software automatically initiate the Windows power-down sequence when the power is interrupted or the battery is low? In other words, will it safely shut down my computer without any user input?

It will, as long as you install the "PowerChute Personal Edition" and plug in USB cable to UPS battery.

Only @ Best BuyExpand the possibilities with this Dynex™ DX-HZ325 HDMI switch that creates 3 HDMI inputs from a single HDMI port. Compatibility with most HDMI source components and support for 1080p video resolution enable high-definition entertainment.
 

Will this work to switch HDMI between Apple TV and Comcast Cable to the TV?

If you're asking if an HDMI cable is the same for Apple and Microsoft...then yes.

Listen to music and more on the go with these Insignia™ speakers that deliver 1.5W RMS total system power to ensure quality sound. The magnetic design enables easy portability.
 

How long are the USB and Aux cables?

Not very long, maybe 3 ft or so. Cord length is a little disappointing.

USB Power source

Will the USB power source run off of a 12 volt TV. TV has both a USB port and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Can't speak for every TV, but yes it should technically. Just like you should be able to plug phone, tablet charger right into those USB jacks.

Experience speeds up to 24 times faster than an HDD with this PNY 240BG SSD. It also operates at a lower temperature than a standard hard drive, providing even more performance improvements. Enjoy the drive's quiet operation, and save money on utility bills with this energy-efficient SSD. The PNY 240GB SSD is covered by a three-year warranty.
 

Does this come with Transfer software like Samsung drives?

No it doesn't, however you can use a free software like Active@ Disk Image to easily do that. It has a free fully functional, no commitment or CC requirement for 30 days.

Store important games, videos, music, and more on this Western Digital Blue series hard drive. Its 2.5-inch form factor makes it suitable for use in laptops or notebooks. This 1TB Western Digital Blue series hard drive runs at 5400 rpm for decreased heat and power consumption.
 

Is this compatible?

Is this compatible with my Lenovo Thinkpad E450? Thank you!
I can't imagine why it wouldn't be. The SanDisk drives are very compatible and easy to install. I would suggest upgrading the BIOS first on the Lenovo.

Does it come with Windows installed?

Negative, you'll have to image old OS over to the new drive. You could use a "USB to SATA Coverter" to hook up new SSD HDD, then image over using a software product like "Active@ Disk Image"

Would this work to replace the hard drive in my sons newer Dell 5000?

I have replaced HDDs in Dell Desktops, Laptops, and AIO's...from newer machines to machines 9 years old with no issues. I would recommend updating the BIOS off Dell's support site first, then using a program such as "Active@ Disk Image" to copy all system, utility, Dell Partitions.
