I used this to add Bluetooth conectivity to my Beats By Dre Beatbox—the original one that had the built in 40pin iPod/iPhone connector. I plugged this in the Aux input, and can now connect my iPhone 8 and other modern devices no problem

I bought this for my mom and despite the specs, it was ridiculously slow. Any multitasking really bogged it down—even after uninstalling most of Microsoft and HP’s bloatware. Unless you are just doing one thing at a time, like basic internet browsing or writing a word document (not at the same time). Thank goodness for Best Buy, I wiped this and brought this back and traded up to an HP Envy 360. The Envy 360 was more than double the price, but it’s a way better computer. If you can afford it, spend more to get a better computer—you won’t regret it. You’ll probably have plenty of regrets buying this though.

I bought these for my mom who isn’t the most computer/tech literate. They’ve been great because she now knows what every cable in her new office does, and can fix simple problems like resetting the modem, on her own.

Works great, Insignia make nice products. I know it’s Best Buy’s house brand, but I’ve always had good luck with them- this product is no exception. It works just as well as any other usb 3.0 hub I’ve used, and it was a bit cheaper too.

I have an OWC ThunderBay 4 RAID unit running RAID 10 (1+0), and it uses SoftRAID to manage it. I previously had 4 Toshiba 3 TB NAS/Enterprise drives installed but I needed more space. I ordered 4 of these and then used SoftRAID to verify and certify them. 2 of the 4 drives had reallocated sectors indicating the potential for premature drive failure. According to SoftRAID drives with bad sectors are 40 times more likely to fail than those without. Anyways, I took the defective drives back to Best Buy and exchanged them for new ones (which had to be reordered, obviously). Now I have 4 perfect drives that all work great, but given that it took 6 drives to get 4 good ones, doesn’t reflect very good quality control on Western Digital’s part. The other thing is that these run significantly louder than my old drives. I am honestly disappointed, and in hindsight wish I would’ve gone with another brand or option. I’ve only had these running for a couple weeks now, and everything’s finally working, so that’s good. The thing I will say is Best Buy’s customer service was excellent in handling this. Hopefully these last a while, like they are supposed to. I wouldn’t recommend buying these, but I would recommend getting something else from Best Buy as they are great and stand behind the products they sell, and will make it right if you have problems.

Is a difference between NAS PRO RED HARD DRIVE ONE IS NOT PRO ?

Yes, the Pro version are 7200 RPM and the non-pro are 5400 RPM. Also the Pro have a 5 year warranty, and the non-pro have a 3 year warranty. The Pro are rated for higher workload. There are other differences, but those are the main ones.
