Replaced an aging external HDD
on September 13, 2019
Posted by: john
Verified Purchase:Yes
This external drive replaced a 10 year old HDD that was reporting a soon to occur failure - still worked OK but SMART said otherwise. This SSD is the perfect replacement - using it on my Linux system both as a backup device as well for temporary files.
Plug it in, its ready to go...

Absolute necessity

Verified Purchase:Yes
Decided it was more than a good idea to have the TV, tuner, STB, etc protected by a decent UPS. Recently had a power failure and the STB took longer to come back online than the power outage itself so this purchase was a no-brainer. Previous experience with both APC and Cyberpower products and so far, I like the CP better. We'll see in the long run but this particular unit fills the bill for now. Probably never have another outage...

The new 11-inch iPad Pro features an advanced Liquid Retina display that goes edge to edge.~ Face ID, so you can securely unlock iPad Pro, log in to apps, and pay with just a glance. The A12X Bionic chip is faster than many PC laptops and easily runs pro apps. All-day battery life.~ Wi-Fi. Over a million apps available on the App Store, including augmented reality experiences. And the new Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard Folio help you be even more creative and productive.~ It will make you rethink what iPad is capable of - and what a computer is capable of.

slight improvement over previous model

Verified Purchase:Yes
Like all Apple products, decently built, work as advertised but horribly over-priced for what you get. Is it worth a couple of hundred over the still-available models? Only as a gift to a special person.

As usual, unlike the Star Wars feeble attempts, the Jurassic movies have hit the mark again. Next one is in 2021, should be another winner.

5 out of 5Wow! Amazing sound!

Amazing sound!
Had one issue worth mentioning: we had random audio drop-outs. By random, I mean, 6 hrs one time, two hours the next, The picture would be normal, just no sound whatsoever. The soundbar info would show nothing wrong. Sometimes switching the HDMI input around and back to the original would help, sometimes not. So I started disconnecting input sources.
We have an AppleTV*, Sony Blu-ray and Kinivo HDMI switch connected - one guess which one was causing the problem - the Kinivo switch, of course! After disconnecting it, the audio drop-outs appear to have stopped. Since we have multiple games connected to the switch, I replaced the Kinivo with a Tripplite HDMI switch and so far, so good!

Audio dropout problem was far simpler than I originally thought! After two calls to Polk, the rep suggested I power cycle the soundbar,,,I did that and so far it now works! Never dawned on me that might actually work but it seems to have cured the hiccups.
