This drive has been reliable and has played any disk I have tried. It is very light and makes travelling a breeze. It does feel a bit flimsy, but works and what would one expect at this price!!

Good for creating Recovery Drives

Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed to create recovery drives for my systems after loosing one machine and the internal recovery didn't work. I finally got the data off the machine, but decided to create a recovery drive for all my other computers, and already used one to recover after an update. These jump drives are reliable and a great value.

Excellent choice for streaming

Good value and being a Roku every streaming service can be played. It connects only via WiFi so 4K support is out, and only HDMI for video, but these are the standards today for most TVs.

I got this laptop when offered at $149 knowing it would be a modest laptop, but it is unbelievably slow. It is a shame what is otherwise a great starting laptop when Asus could have raised the price by $20 and put in a better processor.

This new version of Chromecast is worth the upgrade as the dual band wireless significantly improves streaming in crowded wireless homes. It has eliminated video dropouts and pixeling.

Top rated liquid CPU cooler

Works great but I would warn you to have a large case to fit the cooler and dual 120mm fans inside. It dropped my CPU temp by 15 degrees easy allowing me to overclock my CPU a get another few years out of my desktop.

This Receiver may only be 5.1, but delivers outstanding sound quality and is easy for the family to operate. Integrates well with our Sony Bravia TV and Blu-Ray player. I love the auto configure feature and this receiver delivers much better surround sound than the Pioneer receive it replaced.

Excellent Freeze that holds far more than expected
on August 14, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This freezer is surprising in how much it holds and how fast it freezes the food. It is great for overflow items that don't fit in a refrig, even for 2 people we have need of this freeze when we stock up, especially during the holidays. We occasionally buy a quarter of beef and it holds it all along with other items. Great value and quality.

Basic Cloud Storage
on July 3, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this device as it got CNET Editors Choice and it was on sale. I found the functions fairly basic and limited. Yes, you can plug in an USB Drive, but can't use it except as local network drive and each folder is accessible only by the user and system that created it. The Smartphone/Tablet applications can only access the basic internal drive, and remote access is unreliable.
From my further research, WD My Cloud is a better value in this price range.

Why does my Surface Pro 4 lock up and just show a black screen after the logo goes away?
I have found this problem, and several more, e.g. slow, related to Microsoft updates starting to download or install while trying to use any Windows 10 wireless device. I changed Settings -> Updates -> to "Notify to schedule restart" and checked "defer updates" and all problems disappear. The screen going black is usually tied to updates that that have to be being installed during startup. Just be sure to check for updates every few days.

Would this be useful for a teacher/coach?
Absolutely. It fulfills all the requirements of a desktop when the keyboard is added.

TiVo Roamio Plus DVR: Expand your entertainment options with a DVR and streaming media player in 1 device. Record up to 6 shows at once and access streaming services like Netflix, Hulu Plus, YouTube and more.
Comcast connectivity
I want to replace my 2 rented Comcast devises will the TiVo roamio plus dvr work on 2 tv's in different rooms?
Also does it take a Comcast smart/descramble card that I have to pay Comcast for in order for the TiVo to be activated and work?

I just bought a Tivo Roamio with 2 Tivo Minis and I now no longer have any Comcast equipment, except a cable card in the DVR. This setup gives us far more features and saves money. Tivo Minis will pay for themselves in about a year in saving over Comcast Set-top box fees. The Tivo itself will take about three years over Comcast DVR fees.
