Some tradeoffs for the Slim, but overall worth it
on January 20, 2023
Posted by: RailRoad87
Verified Purchase:Yes
My sister likes her new laptop I helped her purchase. It's one of the few laptops this generation that still features a numpad. Some odd design choices like a hard-wired 8GB ram slot and a limit on the amount of additional hard drive space that can be added (500GB), but overall a solid (and slim) laptop.

Affordable and great quality gen4 SSD
on January 20, 2023
Posted by: RailRoad87
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the most affordable Gen 4 m.2 SSDs I've found. Was perfect for my sister's laptop that only supported adding an additional 500gig SSD (otherwise would have added a larger capacity SSD).

Turn your laptop into a workstation with the 17" Dual Fan Chill Mat with Hub. The product combines a chill mat with all the important things you need when working at a desk. Dual high-speed fans help keep your laptop cool, a 4-port hub allows you to connect all your peripherals, plus the adjustable height allows you to use it as a laptop stand. Use it flat, or at the highest setting (4”) with an external keyboard for better ergonomics. The 17" Dual Fan Chill Mat with Hub is the ideal solution for owners looking to get the most out of their laptop.

Great at sale price, but maybe not @ MSRP
on November 25, 2022
Posted by: RailRoad87
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was fortunate to find this when it was marked down to under $30. For that price it is great but I would not have bought it at its MSRP in the $75 range.
It fits my 17" MSI Vector GP76 laptop but the fans are noisy and cannot be turned off without unplugging the mat from the laptop USB port. The extra USB ports are a nice addition, but like I wrote above, would not have bought at MSRP.

Great 2nd Hard Drive for my new MSI Laptop
on November 25, 2022
Posted by: RailRoad87
Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased as a 2nd hard drive for my new MSI laptop. The laptop back was challenging to remove and re-secure but actual installation of this SSD was simple, as was formatting the drive once the laptop booted. Happy with the drive and appreciate the lower cost compared to other Gen 4 SSDs. Have been happy with PNY products in the past.

happy to try MSI after a history of Alienware/Dell
on November 25, 2022
Posted by: RailRoad87
Verified Purchase:Yes
Finally broke with my tradition of buying Alienware laptops because of their recent product design changes. I am overall happy with my new MSI, but have noticed some minor annoyances.
The fans are louder than my old laptop but do what they're supposed to do to keep everything cool.
The keyboard RGB color scheme is less intuitive to adjust than the Alienware Control Center equivalent.
MSI control center is overall less polished than the Alienware equivalent.
Getting into the back of the laptop requires removing several more screws than my old Alienware, and the laptop shell is more difficult to work with (I managed to get it open and closed again to install a 2nd m.2 SSD drive, but am not looking forward to opening it up again).
Minor quibbles overall and not problematic enough to make me regret my purchase.

Glad Office still comes in a one-license purchase
on November 25, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
I prefer this version of Office compared to the Office 365 subscription plan because I prefer to buy a product license once rather than over time.
