I got this drive at a great price on sale. I put into an external housing with a fast USB interface. With it I get speeds of typically 400 MB/s, which are close to the maximum of 500 MB/s for this drive connected directly to the SATA inside a pc. I use it to do backups of the drives inside my tower. It is an economical means of performing this function.

This tiny external USB drive is a very good way to add additional storage to a laptop without having to clone and install a drive into the laptop. It protrudes only a small amount from the side of the laptop, allowing it to remained plugged in while inserted into a sleeve or carrying bag. The speed of the drive is as advertised, which is suitable for smaller files (such as photos). It is an excellent buy when on sale.

This is a very good budget bag for a 14 inch laptop. I got it for an excellent price on a special sale. It is houses my 14 inch laptop. It has a large pocket on the front and also on the back. Each pocket is sealed shut with Velcro. It has a smaller pocket on the front that has a sturdy zipper. The main compartment is sealed with two sturdy zippers. The case has two cloth handles. The padding is sufficient for light travel. This is a good budget laptop bag, and I am happy with its purchase.

I was able to get this at an excellent price as open box in excellent condition. It comes with an AC power cord that is a hair over 6 feet long, and a USB-C cable that is 19 inches long. The USB-C cable connects the laptop to the dock, and provides power to the laptop as well as high speed data in both directions. The dock has a good variety of ports. I was particularly happy for the ethernet port, as I do not have that port on my laptop. The dock is a little chunky, but still small enough to be easily packed for transport. I am quite happy with this purchase.

This flash drive is a very easy way to add storage to a laptop, in a way that can be semi-permanent and not stick out much from the laptop. In addition it will not block any other ports on the laptop. The speed is as advertised - sufficient for files that are not too big, such as photos. The photos below show it next to a smallish 14" laptop. It makes an easy way to add storage to a space limited laptop.

Listen to your favorite albums with this Onkyo DX-C390(B) 6-disc CD player that features Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry technology for clear, brilliant audio. The high-precision multibit D/A converter delivers high-quality sound.
Can I stack my Yamaha receiver on top of the CD player? The CD player is a bit too wide to use side by side.
I would say it is ok to put your receiver on top of the cd player, but would recommend against putting the receiver under it. Receivers can generate a fair amount of heat, and you generally want to have good airflow on the top and sides of the receiver.

is this drive 5400 rpm or 7200 rpm? most likely 5400 for the good price but just need to know
This drive is 5400rpm. There are very few external 7200rpm drives. Check out G-Technology and Buffalo, who offer a few.
