A bit larger than most portable USB 3.0 drives, but given the capacity to be expected. Great performance!

The art of war may be thousands of years old, but on the battlegrounds of the future combat has become a big business. Where men and women once stood in defense of their nation the employees of Private Military Corporations (PMCs) are deployed, armed with the latest technologies and an arsenal of advanced weapons. Soldiers no longer need to specialize in any area of combat — equipped with powerful exoskeletons, they become the masters of all battlefield skills. In this new age of privatized combat, one PMC stands at the forefront of the industry, the juggernaut Atlas Corporation. Founded and led by Jonathan Irons, perhaps the most powerful man in the world, Atlas Corporation represents the evolution of modern combat. Under the oversight of Irons and men like him, the rules of warfare have been completely rewritten, and national borders change with the demands of the highest bidders. Do you have what it takes to navigate this ever-changing military landscape and answer the Call of Duty?The latest installment in the popular combat series, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare plunges you into the combat of the future, orchestrated and fought by PMCs with the latest technology in armor, weaponry and tactics. Enter the world of Jonathan Irons — the founder and president of the world's most dominant PMC, Atlas Corporation — in a powerful performance by Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey. Step onto the battlefield in a powerful exoskeleton that provides a massive force multiplier, delivers strategic freedom and enhances even the most adept soldier's abilities with optimized movement, jumping and grappling, covert cloaking abilities and biomechanics that take your strength, awareness, endurance and speed to the next level. Destroy opposing forces with an advanced arsenal that allows you to dominate the battlefield and all-new equipment, abilities and perks that put you at the forefront of combat technology. Conduct missions with hoverbikes, highly specialized drones and other new vehicles that enhance your mobility. Attack enemy forces with tried-and-true standard ammunition or step up your assault with new directed-energy weapons. The future of war is upon you — are you ready to play your part?

The advances of video games over the past two decades are impressive, to say the least. Crystal-clear graphics, immersive storylines, the introduction of online co-op gameplay — the differences are endless. But if you can remember sitting on the floor (close enough to hold the wired controller) around the TV with your buddies to play classic Nintendo games like Super Mario Brothers, Donkey Kong and the Legend of Zelda, then you'll always have a special place in your heart for the old-school games that came before all of these advances. They were, after all, the dawn of an era that has shaped the world today.Experience those moments of nostalgia in a new light with the impressive advances of today's video game technology through Nintendo Land. The fun and thrilling theme park of Nintendo Land is filled with 12 lively attractions modeled after beloved classics using unique and innovative gameplay made possible by the touch screen and intuitive capabilities of the versatile and ingenious Wii U GamePad. With the dynamic multiplayer mode allowing up to five players to participate, you and your friends will be able to play the same game while enjoying a completely different experience depending on whether you're controlling the GamePad. Jump into the fun with the included Wii Remote Plus that features a unique theme showcasing everyone's favorite green overalls-clad plumber brother — Luigi. The Wii Remote Plus intuitively recognizes every swing, twist, swish and blow and reproduces it on the screen with unbelievable accuracy, taking your mind off the buttons and plunging you into the battle, tournament or race. Are you ready to experience your favorite Nintendo Lands again in a whole new way?

My kids love it, soda tastes good but the naturally sweetened stuff (with real sugar) is the best.

Fantastic sound, easy mount. Bluetooth streaming seems finicky though - even at very close range dropouts can occur, tested with an iPhone 5s and Nexus 5.

Sound

How is the sound? On my current TV you have to raise volume all the way most the time.
Absolutely fine for me on a bedroom TV. For main watching, movies, music, etc. I'd probably add a nice sound bar with sub.

How many HDMI inputs are there?

Your Product Features states only 2 HDMI, which is a real turn off. But pictures of product seem to indicate there are 3 HDMI. How many HDMI inputs does this TV have?
3 HDMI. 2 accessible from bottom, 1 accessible from side but still recessed into the TV so cables will not show.

This Seagate STBD3000100 internal hard drive for desktops features a 3TB capacity to store important documents, photos, videos, music and more. Native Command Queuing prioritizes important commands for enhanced efficiency.
 

Connection problems!

This 3TB hard drive seems to have connection issues. Just walking by the unit causes it to disconnect and become unreliable. Short of super glue, is there a better fix? What is the warranty on this unit?
Thanks
Perhaps try a new SATA cable? Otherwise you should replace the drive.
