another pick what you want (seagate hdd edition)

Dear EggXpert’s

We have a handful of Seagate items that we would like to send out ASAP.
Keep in mind that the most desired items will probably go within a few minutes, so choose wisely.
This is a special email; it won’t affect your place in line to receive our regular items.
Remember these are still EggXpert Items so we do expect reviews for all of them.
Just send us back the “part number” of the item you would like to review.

Particular drives have specific purposes, so please review them with that in mind, such as the SkyHawk drives should be used with a camera security system.

While the Gigabyte Z270X board was tempting, I simply have no use for it (should probably fix my x99 setup first) so I asked for the corsair h100i v2.
 
Got a reply saying I was one of the lucky ones to get a mobo these are pre release fir Kaby lake but will work with skylake I thought the Z270 was a typo lol
 
well mobos arriving weds not sure what I'm allowed to divulge once it arrives I emailed them asking if there was any kind of NDA so once I know I'll say what I can lol. Already grabbed a second M.2 to raid with my other one lol.
 
No they never said anything about nda but today was official release date. I have its up and running now rocking m.2 raid on a pair 256 go intel ssd 6 drives was a pita to get going but she's running smoothly now love the rgb on board I got the aorus gaming k5 not a huge fan of rgb but the plethora of setting makes it neat to work with I'm thinking about getting the corsair crystal 570 and going full tilt with it as well as a kaby lake CPU
