Reviewers Didn't Like
- Short Norton Internet Security subscription, Loaded with bloatware, Has no USB 3,0, eSATA ports, Hard drive is slow
- Size of case not suitable for home theater use, Lacking connectivity options
- The midtower case makes this a difficult PC to add to a living room, and an anemic power supply and obvious skimping on external ports hurt its expandability
- Slow drive speed. Not tool-less. No Wi-Fi. No USB 3.0 or eSATA
