By DT R500

Format:Personal Computers

I've had this device for a few months now and use it everyday. with no problems. Its been dropped and stood on more times then i cancount. Its even survived a 90 min wash cycle !!! must remember to check my pockets in the future...
now i'm waiting for the price to come down and i'll invest in a 64Gb

Excellent 'plug and play' memory stick, excellent service from provider. Lid and body of memory stick and soft rubber,ideal for shock absorption, well designed 'eye' at the bottom of the memory stick for lanyard. No issued with memory storage or usage, highly recommended product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kingston R500 DataTraveller 27 July 2012

By Graham Wilson

Format:Personal Computers|Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this to replace my now 3 year old 2GB DataTraveller and comparing the two flash drives you can immediately see how far technology has moved in 3 years. As with my old drive this is quality flash drive that is fast at reading and writing. I was torn between buying this and the USB 3 version which appears faster on paper but did not say how fast it would be on the older USB 2 ports.
since I have a mix of USB2 and USB3 ports I wanted to make sure I would get a reasonable speed on all.
This is a highly recommended drive and worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars kingston 16 Gb USB3

Product works fine and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. Only reason it loses a star is that the rubber protective coating is just a bit too thick, so it's difficult to install... Read more
