Toshiba hardrive 500gb portable hard drive

One of the reason I wanted a hard drive was for extra space to store files from my laptop because I am running out of space because of my big music collection. I was looking for something with a decent amount of space and affordable price and came across the Toshiba portable 500gb hard drive. I have heard and read some good reviews about this, so I thought why not choose this, plus my laptop is Toshiba brand.

Pros:
Price: The price was great, it was within my budget, which was even better.
Functionality: Once it was hooked up to my laptop, it read within seconds, which was greats. I tested it out and transferred some files to(pdfs, and some music files) and copied in a few seconds. Then I tried some of my bigger files like my downloaded movies. Because these are bigger sized files, it took some time but not too long only like a couple of minutes.

Build: It is very light weight, so be very careful while carrying it. I would suggest a investing in a case to protect it. It has 4 pads under the bottom, which prevent it from moving a lot. 
Other: The cable that comes with is great because it is one of those thick and durable cables, that I like so much and feels that it would last for a long time.
 

Cons:
Build: I really dislike the build of this hard drive because of its plastic feel, it feels like it will break on me or become loose. Like above, I would strongly suggest investing in a case.




Overall, I have owned this device since February and so far it has been holding up very great!!!

Etekcity Digital Voice Recorder & MP3 Player with Built-in Magnetic Lapel Clip and 3.5 mm Audio Jack (8 GB, Black)

I received this recorder in exchange for my unbiased and hones review. BUILD: The first thing I said when I received this recorder was that ….this thing is super duper small, obviously in the pictures it looked a whole lot bigger, but no biggie. What I love about this thing is that it is very compact and has a clip that I could clip to my shirt or pants pocket and I love this. It has a play/pause button, on/off switch, save/record switch, mode selection used for switching between music and recording and a headphone jack to listen to the recording or listen to music and also this is an mp3 player as well which is a double plus. It has 8gb of storage. This also comes with a usb charging/sync cable as well. Sound: I tested out the recording part,  and the audio was decent except for the background noise….well I had a fan and air conditioner running in the background but this was nothing a little audacity could not help. I just took out the background noise and it sounded fine.

Vivitar Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Speakerphone (Red)

I was out at Walmart just browsing and , I happened to come upon this Vivitar wireless Bluetooth speaker and all for the very cheap price of 8 bucks. I was thinking to myself it is probably just cheap no sounding piece of crap speaker that no one is buying and put it on clearance to get rid of it. The kind clearances I like. So, being a technology enthusiast and because it was just 8 bucks I decided to try it out. I didn’t have much to lose. Pros: Price: The price of this speaker was very cheap, and I like cheap sometimes. Build: I love the color of the speaker, I do love that they have a variety  colors , but I wanted something other than the general colors black or white.  It is very light weight, almost close to feather in your hand. It does have these 4 rubber pads at the bottom to prevent it from moving. Sound: The sound is decent for some basic music listening not to good and not to bad either. Bluetooth: I love that it is really easy to connect it to Blue
