Advantages: price, speed and reliability Disadvantages: A little large but ideal to put on your car keys etc
I use USBflashdrives frequently and regularly have to replace them, I carry them with my car keys which especially with laptops they bend. And I can finally say that I have found one that can take anything!!
This gadget is encased in rubber, is water resistant and comes with a 10 year manufactures guarantee, which shows you how robust they are. It is not the smallest of pens yet I find those are the one which are most likely to fail, however it is not that large either. So if you value your data rather than squeezing it in your wallet, I would highly recommend this product. I bought one for £18 over a year ago and whilst in my lap top my dog sat beside me and knocked it which resulted in a loose connection, and the manufacture replaced it for me, new for old. They are ~ £13 from Amazon now so a bargain.
Here are some ...
Advantages: Reliable data storage, small & light, stronger & more robust than it looks. Disadvantages: Feels a bit flimsy, seperate cap is easy to misplace.
read and write speed is good, there are faster drives on the market, but at this price point it performs quite well, and it is fast enough for general use, and with it's 8gb storage capacity, you can get a lot of data onto it.
It does not have any fancy features, such as rubber shockproof casing etc. but it is a simple no frills USBdrive that does everything that it is supposed to do without any fuss.
This is a pre formatted device that is plug and play, so there is no setting up to do, or software to install, and it is ready to use straight from the packaging with no fuss, it is enhanced for windows with "ready boost"
It is compatible with Windows 200, XP and Vista, it is also compatible with Mac os 10.0.2
Read speed is up to 16mb/sec. Write speed is up to 5mb/sec.
It comes in a blister pack, a nightmare to open, but it is ...
Advantages: Speed of small transfers Disadvantages: No ReadyBoost, feels cheap
Hi today I will be reviewing a Kingston DataTravler 2GBUSBFlashDrive. I bought this a few months ago after losing my other flashdrive. It cost me 9.97 from PC World but I believe you can get them cheaper in other places.
Speed
For the data that I transfer to it i.e. pictures and some small visual basic programs it transfers them extremely quick compared to some cheap flashdrives I have used in the past.
Problems
So far I have had no major problems other than in windows vista it is not capable of running ReadyBoost which a free flashdrive I had a while ago could.
Size
The overall size of the flashdrive is quiet good the USB connector slides in and out with a rather flimsy press and slide switch.
Feel
The Kingston feels rather cheap and plastic considering the price I paid for it anyway.
Over all this is not a bad ...
