Good and Solid Enclosure
on September 11, 2016
Posted by: lucasan
Verified Purchase:Yes
This enclosure is well made, with complete compatibility with a range of drives with Serial ATA. I use it for a large capacity SSD and it performs as expected. The design is simple and I appreciate that the screws fit flushly on assembly. (many other aftermarket enclosures I've used have fallen short of this)
My only knock on this drive, and this is more of a Best Buy (Insignia is a Best Buy owned brand) issue, is that it is priced a bit steeply for what it is. Many other competitors charge less than $20 for a comparable enclosure you can find at stores like MicroCenter. There is only one of those stores in the area and it is not convenient to me, so I paid extra for convenience.

Drive is Unreliable at Best
on September 11, 2016
Posted by: lucasan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Before purchasing this drive, I read reviews and decided that for the money, this would be a great short term solution to my storage needs.
I photograph professionally and rely on large capacity storage to manage thousands of RAW files on a daily basis. I have 2 G drives that I use and have been happy with, but I don't know any retail outlets where I can get the size units I need.
Here is the breakdown of my experience with this drive:
My uploads have stalled out short of completion every time. My transfer between smaller SSD's and the 5TB Seagate have been exceptionally slow. I do not like, nor do I find the proprietary software that Seagate boxes you into useful, or well performing.
This drive is targeted for the average consumer who would like a lot of space to hold photos and, movies etc. People who need it for professional use should steer clear!

I was looking for an inexpensive medium capacity hard drive and this fit the bill nicely. The first thing I did was delete the software that comes on the disk. For a user like me, it was more annoying than helpful. I would give it 5 stars but if it fails on me within a year then it will have been a complete waste.

Drive unmounts itself even after reformatting it in disk utility on mac os. Also, ejecting drive is sometimes difficult or delayed.
I do like the design with the self contained thunderbolt cable and it feels very well built and durable but the unpredictable nature prevents me from recommending this drive to others.
I will look at the G Drive comparable product...

This SSD is just as good as the Crucial drive I bought about 6 months ago. Speed is on par and I haven't experienced a single issue yet *crosses fingers... For the price, this unit cannot be beat.

This set is far better than any generic ink. I have had multiple issues with generic inks in the past, including the ink saying it was empty when it wasn't and getting printer error messages for no reason. Besides, you don't save a heck of a lot of money on buying generic inks. Not worth the hassle. Just get the OEM stuff.

Only at Best BuyKeep your Apple iPhone 6 Plus guarded while you're on the go with this Modal MD-A65Z2L case that features dual-layer construction, utilizing durable polycarbonate and silicone materials and a rubber coating, to ensure reliable defense against damage.
Posted by: lucasan
Verified Purchase:Yes
This case was $10 on sale and that was pretty much the only reason I chose it as an option. I wanted to try several cases on my phone and I decided not to go with this one after putting it on because it felt too flimsy. It has a nice soft touch coating, but as we all know, this coating usually wears off after a while, leaving the phone case looking pretty bad.
For $10, it's certainly worth it. After all, when the case starts to show signs of wear, it won't be expensive to replace.

This case does what it needs to do. It protects the phone, has a good grip and leaves all of the the switches clear and easy to operate. It looks pretty good too. I have used Speck cases since my first iPhone 4 years ago and have always found them to work well.

Attractive but not overly Protective
on December 5, 2014
Posted by: lucasan
Verified Purchase:Yes
This case looks great and has a nice feel. Unfortunately the interior of the case is not padded so it won't reduce shock to the phone when dropped.
The hold button cover diminishes the usability of the hold button because it is very stiff. It takes a lot of pressure to get the hold button to activate.
I feel there are better cases out there, but I got this case for a very reasonable price so all in all I say not bad.

Hoover WindTunnel 3 Pro Bagless Pet Upright Vacuum: Clean up stubborn pet hair with this vacuum's pet tool accessory pack, and move from hardwood to carpets with the press of a pedal. The bagless container empties out at the touch of a button.
The Waterwall™ dishwasher has a first-of-its-kind sliding spray bar that moves back and forth to deliver a powerful, streaming wall of water with remarkable cleaning results. The AutoRelease™ door opens automatically to circulate air and accelerate drying time. With Zone Booster you can target certain areas of the dishwasher with custom settings to wash delicate glasses and tough-to-clean pots - all in a single load.
So, am I correct in thinking that the kick plate for the dishwasher is just a non-descript panel or am I missing a piece?
Yes, unfortunately you are correct. I was disappointed by this as well. Other than that, I really like this dishwasher.
