Pros: - Ridiculously simple and easy to use - Simple well made design - Fun little toy - Does exactly what it's supposed to do almost instantly.

Cons: - If the item is reflective, even slightly, make sure to have the sensor as close as possible or put paper or something against it to get a more accurate reading, otherwise, it's really not accurate at all, as mentioned in description.

Overall Review: It's already paid for itself within the very first day... While playing around with it, I noticed the batteries in my UPS battery backup was overheating... further inspection showed that all 4 batteries were bulged really badly and were dangerously hot (84C). May have saved me from corrosive battery explosions.

Pros: - Works out of the box. No issues at all in the driver setup either or the bios updates which Asus is still releasing updates for, gotta love them for that. - Works with ram that isn't in the QVL at the default ram speeds only (aka 2100mhz), but at least it works well without any stability issues. - So far, it's proving to be yet another very reliable Asus board. - 6 Sata ports which seems to be rare these days for some reason but was a much needed feature for me.

Cons: - I can't seem to overclock the Ryzen 5 1600x CPU to 4GHz. I can't overclock this particular Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 model of ram at all even though most of the other Corsair Vengeance LPX ram models are supported in the QVL. These issues should not even exist at all, but they do. - Bios mouse control has insane mouse acceleration which makes it difficult to navigate, not to mention a UI that doesn't co-operate very well. - Motherboard itself was designed by someone who should be fired for making it 1/4 inch too small on the width. There's no reason to do that as it just causes the motherboard to either overhang which makes the board bend a lot while plugging in the 24 pin power connector and ram which obviously could cause damage to the board. My only safe solution was to apply electrical tape to the spots behind the board where I knew the standoffs would just to say touch the edge of the board so I could protect it from direct contact to anything electrical and protect the board from scratching too. This allowed me to plug in the 24 pin and ram without risk of bending the motherboard. When not applying pressure to that side of the board, it just to say hovers over top of the standoffs, so it isn't touching all the time. But it's another issue that should not exist at all, but it does. - I don't know if it's Ryzen's fault or the motherboard, but before the bios update, the CPU was reading 65+ degrees Celcius while in the bios which is obviously improbable. After the bios update, it showed 20 degrees less, but still way hotter than realistically possible. This is apparently a known issue with all Ryzen CPUs and there's no real fix for it yet. So knowing the real CPU temperature is a matter of guessing for now. Luckily for me, I have a large Noctua cooler to put my mind at ease. - The audio connectors are a little strange and required some research for me to understand before I could buy the board. Luckily for me, I only use 5.1 surround with headset and mic plugged in on the front. Those of you who wishes to go with 7.1 surround, you're not going to like how it's set up to handle that. Also, the Realtek software is becoming more and more basic than what it used to be.

Overall Review: - The motherboard's red pulsing LEDs is barely a feature at all. There's no customizing it and it's barely even noticeable if you have other hardware generating light. So I don't consider it a Pro or a Con... but worth mentioning. - I'd like to point out that I knew about most of the issues I mentioned above before buying the board, so none of this surprised me at all. The only reason I bought this one was because I couldn't find a better Asus board that met more of my needs than this one. I'll likely be buying a better board in a year or two from now so I can have the option to overclock again. But I'm in no rush for that right now.

Overall Review: The vesa mount is tack welded to a tiny painted surface... it falls off with very little pressure. Contacting support will get you an AI generated response which only gives you the run-around for a week until you inevitably give up.

Pros: - All 3 switches I bought and chained together work flawlessly without any issues at all. - Plug and play - Produces only a small amount of heat despite the constant traffic flow and where I have them located (semi-sealed wooden box) - Small form factor - Still able to get my max 200/100MB/s internet connection through it with 0 - 1 ms Ping, so there's no issues there either.

Cons: - Smart switches have a web interface or an app to adjust settings... these do not have that option. Therefore, it's false advertising.

Overall Review: Overall, aside from it not being a real "smart" switch, I'd still buy more of these again if / when the time comes I need more, and I do recommend this one over the other options as this one is cheap enough from a respectable brand. The only way I would recommend against it is if you're looking for a real smart switch with actual features you can adjust / disable / enable, etc.

Overall Review: I bought 2 of these and I've transferred 2TB from an old drive to one of these 4TB drives, then mirrored to the 2nd one for redundancy totaling just under 4TB of transferred data so far. Drives did need to be manually activated through Windows disk management, then partitioned and formatted.

Pros: - Nice speeds... at least for my HDD, never tested SSD speeds. - Rubber cushions are a very nice touch, just needs to be modified to work correctly. - I appreciate the tiny blue indicator light, just wish it was a little more noticeable and on the vent side. - USB type-C is nice, so thanks for that. (I hate it when it's type-B) - Momentary switch / power button which is nice, though it'd be nicer if it was latching or rocker switch. - Solid plastic construction, perfectly happy with it considering the metal enclosures cost way too much.

Cons: - Rubber needs to be chopped up on the side where it plugs into the sata / power connections in order to get a reliable connection with the port. Clearly an overlooked flaw. I would suggest making sure the enclosure works well before voiding the warranty like that though. Egg docked for that. - For some reason, Windows 7 would not work with brand new drives using the enclosures while using Windows disk management. It wouldn't allow me to activate the drives and partition / format them. I had to install the drives through normal sata ports, partition them, then re-insert them into the enclosures and they worked fine afterwards. I don't know if this is typical for external drive enclosures, but thought it would be worth mentioning as it made things rather inconvenient.

Overall Review: I bought 2 of these (so far), both needed the rubbers modified to work reliably. I transferred 2TB of data to the first one, then mirrored with the 2nd one for redundancy for a total of 4TB of data transfer. No issues so far, but the USB connectors got really hot towards the end of the transfer... not entirely sure why other than maybe it wasn't enough contact with the port? I wouldn't blame the enclosure or brand though as that's another company that designed the USB ports / adapters to a specific standard.
