No issues & no complaints. It works. I chose Intel over AMD because I wanted an NVIDIA video card.

Not much about it that I liked. I found it difficult to set up or read an

Beware Pop Tarts
on November 1, 2020
Posted by: hhecla
Verified Purchase:Yes
Got it for a good price ($19.99) & I like it. Be careful with Pop Tarts though (which I do not eat often). One dropped down through the toast grid. It was a mess getting out. I had Pop Tart all over me.
Otherwise, I like the features including the lit Cancel Button. I have no idea why Gluten requires its own button.
I would recommend but not at the normal price of $49.99

I like it. Good drive at good price.
I use this Seagate to store Bluray & DVD' s that I have backed up & sometimes watch for convenience. It is obviously very portable too. It is quicker loading than Western Digital though perhaps slightly less reliable.

My First Bedside Clock in Years
on August 29, 2020
Posted by: hhecla
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like this clock. I got it on sale at Best Buy, half price I believe, & it has turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Colorful, accurate & it takes voice commands or interactions which come to the irritating part.
I hate Google. I hate having to say "Hello Google or Okay Google" preceding a command or request. I do like Lenovo & Motorola but if I can find a way to get Google out of the process, I will.
That aside, the clock voice is pleasant & you can ask nearly question & it will provide the answer instantaneously which amazes me. It is tied to the internet but the speed of the responses it astounding.
Google, I should have bought Alexa.

So far I like it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was going to get an earlier 49 inch model but the salesman talked me into this updated 50 inch. It is in a house that I have not yet moved into (renovating) so I watch it for just a few hours a week. The picture looked good right out of the box & so far no adjustments have been needed.
Samsung needs a better remote though. That is my only complaint so far. Otherwise, I a very happy with the purchase.

Great Router & Great Tech Support
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: hhecla
from Staunton VA
I love this router. It is aesthetically please with clean white indicator lights against a black background. Setup is easy & it provides a consistently strong signal to all of my wireless devices wherever they were located in my rather large apartment.
I purchased this router (v2.0) as replacement for another TP-Link C1900 (v1.0) that I had bought from New Egg about a year earlier. The New Egg router had run flawlessly until the night I left my PC running to complete a large (95GB) download. Go figure, Windows 10 decided to update that same night. The following morning I could not connect to the Internet via the router.
After spending hours attempting to fix the problem, I contacted TP-Link tech support via email. They responded almost immediately with clear, easily understandable guidance. After several days of email exchanges & one telephone call, it was decided to RMA the router.
I returned the New Egg (v1.0) router to TP-Link. I received the replacement router (v2.0) yesterday, 4 April 2019. I now have two, one of which I will probably give away to family or friends.
Both this router & the great tech support have convinced to look to TP-Link first for wireless needs.

I'm happy, well, content.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the RX-V485 receiver to replace a still functioning, 6 year old Yamaha RX-V471 receiver. I wanted 4K & wireless speaker capabilities. I am not sure if I am getting 4k resolution or not (it is connected to a 4K TV & 4K disc player) but the wireless speakers work well after some good tech support from Yamaha. I am happy with what I classify as a frivolous expenditure.

Not as pretty or as fast as some of the Seagate external hard drives but Western Digital external hard drives are kind of like Toyotas. They just keep going.

Another Pop Tart Incident
December 1, 2020
I am done with this one. A second pot tart incident yesterday evening (I only eat them occupationally). It took about 30 minutes to try & dig it out now I have pop tart strawberry all over the inside of the toaster. I hope I can clean up enough to give to the Salvation Army. No more Bella products for me. The gluten free crowd can have this one.

My Passport Ultra delivers USB 3.0 performance and high capacity in a sleek design. It features automatic backup capability for back up to the drive itself or to your account. Secure your files with password protection and hardware encryption. It's the ideal companion for anyone, who needs to take their digital content on the road.
 

Does "WD - My Passport 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive" work with a TiVo Bolt as a DVR expander? If yes, does the USB cable work or is an eSATA cable needed?

I do not know about your Tivo system but my Dishnet DVR required an external drive of 2 TB or less & its own power to work. I bought a 2 TB Seagate Mdl: STEB 2000100 as a DVR expander. It works.
