The NETGEAR A6100 WiFi USB Mini Adapter with AC600 Dual Band wirelessly connects your notebook or desktop computer to an 11ac network for applications such as lag-free, HD streams throughout your home, online gaming and a secure and reliable connection

I live in an apartment that suffers from interference from a billion other routers surrounding me. The 2.4Ghz band is borderline pointless here, what few devices I have that only support 2.4 barely work and the connection drops a lot. Went ahead and got this little adapter for my cheap laptop and it works great. I don't have an AC router yet so I can't say how much better AC does than N but the 5Ghz band works fine and I can actually do homework without worrying about losing connection. Compared to a lot of other adapters this one is fairly small, so that's a plus, although I wish it was a little smaller. I think it came with software but I didn't install anything; if I remember correctly I think I might've gone to Netgear's website and downloaded a driver. I've had this for a couple of months now and so far so good. If you need 5Ghz, I highly recommend this one.

Got this for my birthday last year, already knew it didn't have any bass but I liked the other features and the clearness. Exactly 1 year later (on my birthday yesterday), this speaker decided it wanted to spit out nothing but pure distortion in the middle of a song. Can't figure out why. Tried a few different things and still nothing but distortion. I will never buy Beats products ever again (have a pair of Solo HD's that I liked, that's what brought me to buying the Pill). What makes it even better is that on Beats website it says there is a 1 year warranty after purchase date, so I'm maybe 2-3 days over that 1 year limit. I will never recommend Beats products to anyone again. How do you take care of stuff only to have it stop working for no apparent reason? Beats = Trash.

Save and access files quickly with this LaCie d2 Thunderbolt Series 9000353 3TB external hard drive, which features fast read and write speeds for rapid data transfer. Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 interfaces provide flexible connectivity options.

I've only had my drive for about a week now, but so far it's been great. I've read other reviews about this drive being noisy but I only barely hear it when I put my head close to it. Maybe if you're in a room that's dead quiet you can hear it, but the noise it makes is really not even worth mentioning. The read/write speeds aren't too shabby; transferring 10 gigs from the internal to this drive took just a few minutes, better than the 15+ it was taking through USB 2. The price might seem a little high, but this drive uses Thunderbolt (cable provided), has a sturdy build, comes with some handy features, and has 3TB of space, which is plenty for any normal user. I would only recommend this drive if you were to utilize the Thunderbolt port, otherwise you should find a much cheaper USB 2 or 3 drive.

Don't do that
February 15, 2016
You shouldn't leave bad reviews because you had unreasonable expectations. Nowhere in the description does it say it's compatible with Apple TV so why would you think that? And then why would you leave a bad review? People like you are why people like me can't trust reviews for products. Please adjust yourself.

3 out of 5Not that fast
By LearJet85
Previously I had a Samsung SSD 840. After reading all the reviews about the 950 at TechSpot and other sites, I decided to buy it. After I installed it, I did not notice any speed difference. After a couple of discussions with Samsung tech support, and with the Magician software (which was not helpful at all; doesn't function with the 950!), I removed the 950 from the motherboard and reinstalled the 840 -- no change in speed. (My motherboard, RAM, and video card are all fast.) In my personal opinion, the 840 or 850 is as good as the 950.

1 out of 5Over Priced and Too Short
By TechGuru2015
from US
This cable is over priced and to short. For half this price you can get a longer Lightning cable. I am thinking that this length was made specifically for use with portable battery packs but it is way overpriced for what you are getting. Save money and get a 6 ft cable which is more useful specially with batter packs.

So "TechGuru", you may want to do some research first before giving a bad rating. This has a specific purpose, hence the short length of the cable. You should actually just delete your review so as not to mislead people that know what they're looking for.

This hard drive has only 5.45T capacity after I format it in Windows 10. The label shows it's a 6T hard drive, so I lost about 0.5T of hard drive capacity. I will return this hard drive to bestbuy.

5 out of 5best ipod charger on the market
By jsh424
For years I have been troubled with how inefficient my ipod has been charging, but now I have finally found a cable that can meet my high standards. I don't care if my ipod touch only cost me $199, the addition of this $995 cable makes a world of difference. The apps run faster and use less battery than ever. I notice that I can even get wifi signal all the way from my living room to the other side of the street!! By far the best thousand dollars I will ever spend!

4 out of 5Amazing for PC sub par for Console
By JohN586
This is an incredible storage unit for a PC. It will drastically increase the speed of even the oldest of computers. However. When using with a console device you will not achieve close to the same results as you would with a PC.

Maybe
September 16, 2016
Consoles use SATA II so they wouldn't really benefit from an SSD. On the PC side, it would be a lot cheaper to buy two 850 Pro 1TB drives than this single 2TB (about $850 as opposed to $930). If you only have room for 1 drive and you actually need that much space, this would be the way to go (or the 850 Evo).

Ps4 doesn't officially support drives over 4TB (you won't be able to use stand by). Also, the WD Green series are seriously the worst, don't use that in a Playstation.

WHAT IS THE BEST 3D TV
WEHAT IS THE BEST 3D TV
While some are better than others, the "best" 3D TV is subjective and merely an opinion. And a little heads up... 3D will bore you VERY quick (this is coming from experience).

Can I stream media on google tv from my mac and or iTunes account?
This includes movies, tv episodes, music and photos
You might want to check the app "Airtight" from the Google Play Store. I have it on my older Sony Google TV and I can Airplay from my Mac or iPod to it. I think it was 99 cents but totally worth it.

Does the Google TV have the capability of playing 3D movies? If not is there an update available that will enable it to play them?
I am currently getting a screen that pops up and tells me that I do not have a 3D capable device.
If you get a popup that tells you your TV isn't 3D capable, no software is going to change that.
