Pros:
I have only had one major problem to date with it. Works great. Easy to use. Works with most drives I have tried it with.
Cons:
Tried this out with a HDD out of a Compaq Presario V6000. The hard drive is a Toshiba. Well to save time I will give you the short version. Instead of pins like any other HDD it has bars for the connections. This unit cannot handle that type of HDD at all, unless there is an extra adaptor attachment that is sold separately.
Other Thoughts:
I would recommend to anyone before buying this item check to see what type of connections you have on the hard drive. If you have a Compaq, especially a Presario, double check everything before buying. Otherwise it is a very good item to get.
Response From Cyberguys Tech:
The Compaq Presario V6000 ships with a proprietary adapter installed on the 2.5" SATA hard drive. This adapter, however, can be removed and the drive accessed with the Vantec SATA to USB 2.0 adapter.

Used more than my Geek Army Knife

Pros:
I've had one of these for about 8 years, and it still gets more use than my screwdriver. Can't say enough good things about this versatile and incredibly useful tool: hard drive replacements, data recovery, manual malware removal, etc. - facilitates it all within seconds.
Cons:
Can't think of any. I'm here to buy a second one.
Other Thoughts:
A carrying case would be nice. After 8 years, the box has just about had it.
