5.0 out of 5 stars First Class Traveler, 1 Jun 2007
By K. Jamison (Co. Down, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
What a superb piece of kit. I have always bought Kingston memory products for my computers so when I discovered this portable data drive, with a whopping 4GB of storage, I ordered it right away. I previously had purchased the 2GB version (green) but found this filled up all too quickly. Having now transferred my diagnostic tools and recovery programs to this 4GB drive, I am able to maintain computer systems and perform backups with ease.

It hangs on the ring with my house keys so I NEVER leave home without it and it has never let me down. I like the fact that the cap can be pushed onto the body for safe keeping and the keyring leash doesn't get in the way.

The physical size means that it can be stacked with the 2GB drive or regular USB plugs where the USB sockets are close together.

Some of the laptops I fix are USB 1.1 and it does tend to run a little slower but I've had no problems with USB 2.0 drives and I can even run video from the drive if I want to. Runs on PC and Mac systems (keep it formatted as FAT32) so I can transfer files easily.

If Kingston don't make an 8GB version soon, I'll be tempted to purchase a second one! It is way smaller than the equivalent space taken up by a DVDR disk... Excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, fast & reliable, 17 Jun 2008
By T. Searle "FanTC" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I purchased this as a way to transfer large files from my PC to my friend & have been more than happy with the results. Not only does it work straight from the box (well, blister pack really), the transfer rate is good & it has handled everything I've thrown at it. I've downloaded straight to it, I've encoded files from it to my HD, & vice-verca with no problems, & although it only runs at USB 2.0 speeds, it's plenty fast enough to do all the things I bought it for. It hasn't let me down & has handled every type of file I've stored on it - I've even installed programs from it. Kingston Technology has done it again, amazing storage device, highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Compact, Smart, No U3, Real-time Playback, 12 Jun 2008
By Alan (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
  
It's hard to review a product as seemingly simple as a USB Flash Drive, but I'll have a go...

I bought this Kingston Technology 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive because I wanted a Flash Drive to use with my Apple Aluminium Keyboard. If you're familiar with this keyboard you'll know it has 2 USB 2.0 ports, which is great. The problem is, the keyboard is so flat that clearance is very tight. So a poorly designed, chunky Flash Drive is unlikely to fit into it. Fortunately, this Kingston Flash Drive is so compact that it fits perfectly into either of the 2 ports on the Apple Aluminium Keyboard, and sticks out of the side by just 3cm.

Another reason why I bought this Flash Drive was for its design. It looks simple and smart. Some other Flash Drives are overly fussy with horrid colour schemes. This Flash Drive is just white and black, which, again, looks great with the Apple Aluminium Keyboard.

What repelled me from buying a SanDisk Flash Drive is their obsession with bundling software on them. I mean, who buys a Flash Drive for its software? To me, that's nuts. Honestly, whose idea was that? That's like buying blank DVD-Rs with software pre-installed on them, to "help" you. No thanks.

If I want software installed on my Flash Drive, I'll do it myself. And this is where having a Mac comes in handy. You don't need to install software the old-fashioned Windows way. You can just drag-and-drop entire Applications on to something like this Flash Drive, and run them off it. So for example, you could download Google Earth, drag its single icon to your Flash Drive, and that's it, you're done. You've "installed" a piece of software, not on your computer's internal Hard Drive, but on this tiny external Flash Drive. Plug it into any Mac you want, and you can run your Application straight off it.

Ok, what about performance? I haven't got a hugely scientific way of testing the speed of this Flash Drive. But what I can tell you is, I can open and play a 1280 x 544 H.264 movie trailer off it, instantly. Absolutely no delay. And I can scrub back and forth through the video file, while it's playing, all in real-time. No loading, no waiting. So, as far as I'm concerned, the performance is great.
