It works great!

My new computer does not give me the option to install an additional hard drive. I did not want to add another partition to the existing drive for back-up. So I picked this one to do the job. It is smallish, fits right on top of my desk top; the supplied cord is long enough to connect the nearest available Ethernet connection. I love it.

I needed a smallish external memory to transfer some files from one computer to another across town. E-mail was not appropriate. This little relatively inexpensive device did the trick. It works great; transfer speed is quite adequate.

My new computer monitor only has an HDMI input. The associated computer has VGA and DVI outputs. This cable adapter was needed to hook the two together. It works perfect.

I have had this item for several weeks and use it daily. It works well and does the job without any problems. It can get a little warm if you ask it to recharge two or more batteries in short order, but the temperature does not reach alarming levels. It works fine for me.

Best Printer I Ever Had
on April 23, 2016
Posted by: Goober
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got tired and frustrated with these cheap ink jet printers. In close order, I threw two of these into a recycle bin. Good riddance! I regretted that I did not have my old laser printer anymore, bought back in 1998. At the time, the price tag for color laser printers was too steep for my pocket book.
Just recently, I got ticked again about my last inkjet printer which decided to malfunction when I needed it the most. Luckily, I have an older Canon photo printer (very ink hungry) as a stand-by.
Then my eyes fell on this HP All in one laser jet color printer. After some brief research, I ordered it. Set-up was not that hard to do.
After all was done, my new printer works like a charm. It very easily does everything I ask it to do, and it does it quickly. It also can send and receive faxes. The set-up procedure for this feature is somewhat tedious but quite doable. It is, in fact, the best home use printer I ever had. The color images on plain paper are amazingly good.
Actually, I think it can do the job in a small business environment as well. It can handle quite a work load in a short time. I have it connected to an Ethernet router; it can be accessed by the three different computing devices we use in my household. This network includes WiFi.
For the price, this printer is an unbeatable value, something I have learned to expect from Hewlett Packard.

It is the right size for my purpose. It does not have any internal speakers which I do not need as I have and use 2 external speakers. The image quality and resolution is superb, actually better than I had expected from a monitor in that price range.
On the bottom right side are four buttons: Menu - + OK. You can tweak the settings to your liking. This works well; no confusion.
The base was easy to assemble and attach. No problem there. You can tilt the vertical screen angle to your preference, not a problem either.
Overall, I am very pleased with this little monitor. It's a big bang for the bucks, something I have come to expect from Hewlett Packard, over the past 15 years.

Excellent Value for the Money
on April 23, 2016
Posted by: Goober
Verified Purchase:Yes
I give it a five star rating because of what you're getting for the money compared to similar competitors' products. The unusual feature is the vertically mounted CD drive. You need to flip open the vertical door by using your fingers on the right side of the door. Then you see the little oblong black button on the front of the drive which is mounted in the top half of the opening. You push on it and the drive pops out partially. You then pull it the rest of the way much like you see this on many laptop models.
This can be annoying if you use this drive a lot. I use it occasionally; I got used to operating it. It works just fine. I bought mine new in box; set-up was a breeze.
On the top of the housing, on the right side, is the power on-off button. A little further back, on a vertically slanted panel, you find various connector in/outputs for SD memory cards, headphone/mic, 2ea USB 2 and 2ea USB 3. There are also the usual in and outputs on the back panel.
The computer works quite well. I think you would be hard pressed to find such a device with the features for the same money from a different maker. Kudos to Hewlett Packard!
I do like the sleek and uncluttered appearance of it.
