Customer Reviews

Works great
Works flawlessly on my XP machine. Even got it to work (the whole 16Gb!) on an old Win98se laptop (4Gb hard drive) after installing a generic driver (w95usbflash11.zip).

It Just Works in a Mac
Lots of Macs, actually. Prior to this purchase, I had picked up, and returned, an OCZ model that failed to mount in a bus-power keyboard USB port and after that generally failed to work at all. The Kingston model has exceeded my expectations. It mounts under OS 9, OS X, in keyboard USB hubs, in 8 year-old powered hubs, old Macs, new Macs... It just works! I can't speak to its speed, and though read speed is clearly faster than write, I am pleased with file copies.

If there were a downside, it could be that the LED is tiny and occasionally hidden by some plug orientations. I like the swing-away cover, but I'd actually like to have an indent so that it snaps in the open and closed positions. The size overall is excellent, and though it doesn't come with a lanyard--there is such a proliferation of lanyards in the industry, I have many already that will work--it has a punch-out in the metal cover for one. It has been so versatile and reliable, I'm buying another.

Stable Flash Drive!
This is probably the most stable flash drive I've ever used. The portable applications I run from it (like Firefox and Chrome) run smoothly as if they're installed on the computer. No complaints here - it does what it's supposed to do, has plenty of storage (at least for me), and I'm not worried about losing my data.
