Quality hardware. Doesn't come with CD drive, though one can be purchased separately.

Bought a pair of these for my younger siblings for their school needs/light gaming. Specs are just good enough to run some taxing games. But you'll have to turn graphics settings down a bit to enjoy heavier-graphic-intensive games. This next bit wasn't advertised well, but this notebook does NOT come with a CD/DVD drive. It's not that big of a deal since most things don't need it anymore. There is a slot in the case for one still (has a cover over it), so if you do need one, you can order it separately and install it yourself. just Google "Acer Aspire E5-571-588M Optical Drive" and you should have no problem finding it. There are also external optical drives you can use as an option.

Other than that, it works great for a mid-range notebook.

Good assortment of stuff. Comes in clear organizer. High quality hardware to, haven't had any issues with any of it. I have already orderd the larger set, that was the only problem I didn't buy enough.

We have been using this for about 9 months.  Once it is configured, it is rock solid. Beautiful construction.  Great hardware.  It has been outside for quite sometime now and still looks great.
Hubby says  the management software upgrade software was a drag and he chose not to upgrade.
If you use Windows environment it is great.
Hubby says take away one star if you try to use it with Linux because the management software only runs on windows.  We use Linux.

Comes with plenty of hardware, whether you need it or not, product is good. No instructions. Had to look at the picture to figure it out

Quality where it truly matters. No superfluous RGB or a "gamer aesthetic". Adequate airflow, roomy cable management space, and the power supply basement is a nice touch that I never would have thought of. Very utilitarian. A word of warning to the five people in the world this applies to: there's only two 3.5" bays and two 2.5" bays, and no 5.25" bays. Most people don't use more than one hard drive and one SSD anyway, and optical drives are decreasing in relevance.

Strong metal case, tiny reasonably priced long term storage. HP is typically top quality hardware and this drive is no exception.
Product  could be improved with 3.x interface.

Wonderful workmanship, beautiful hardware. A bit stiff when new, but the stiffness will abate with time.

Hardware appears to be of reasonable quality; no surface corrosion & the nuts screw onto the bolts.  Wide variety of different diameters / screw size.  However, each screw size only has one length (typically 25 mm [about 1 inch]) included.  Would have paid more for an assortment that included additional screw lengths.

Solid rack easy to figure out the installation for anyone who likes to tinker.  Not all hardware is included,  nuts and bolts for frame attachment are needed.  Hardware specs would be helpful.

Good quality nice coatings and strain reliefs. Wire is a bit stiff but otherwise excellent quality. Powers my external Blu-ray drive with no problem. Nice not to have to use an extra USB port for power.

This is a nice, solid piece of hardware.  It is attached firmly to my monitor in a convenient location and has worked ever since being plugged in.  I would not hesitate to purchase another one if I need more USB ports.

Good quality. Nice design. Packaging had the mounting plate behind it where I would not normally look for mounting hardware.
