Manufacturer's Description

High-Performance, Plug-and-Stay Backup Drive

As a business professional on the go, it’s important that you ensure the work you do on your personal computer is secure and protected. And with a busy lifestyle, there’s no time for the hassle and complexity of a traditional backup solution, and no room to carry an external hard drive and cables with you. Developed with this in mind, the Lexar Echo ZX backup drive is a high-performance, plug-and-stay drive that provides a convenient way to quickly and automatically back up and protect your files on the go. The drive is available in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacities.

Quickly, Automatically, and Securely Back Up Files

Always-Ready, Automatic Backup Solution. Designed for mobile computer users, the Lexar Echo ZX is a high-performance, always-ready, flash-based backup drive in a low-profile design that allows you to easily plug it into your system’s USB port and keep it there for ongoing, automatic backup of essential files.

High-Speed Performance to Quickly Back Up Files. The high-performance Lexar Echo ZX backup drive is available in a range of capacities, with higher capacities offering higher performance allowing you to transfer data with speeds up to 28MB/s read and 15MB/s write. This gives you the ability to quickly back up and store more of the files that matter great for your mobile lifestyle.

Reliable, Automatic Backup of Essential Files. The Echo ZX backup drive provides automatic backup of your essential files in a convenient, reliable flash-based design. Built-in Lexar Echo backup software activates as soon as it’s plugged in, to securely and automatically protect files with 128-bit AES encryption. The drive also performs ongoing backups to any files in use, and restores previously saved versions of a file providing peace of mind that your data is safe. What’s more, the software works across platforms with one seamless interface, allowing you to easily back up or restore files on either a PC or a Mac system.

Lexar Performance, Quality, Compatibility, and Reliability.All Lexar memory card, card reader, and USB flash drive product designs undergo extensive testing in the Lexar Quality Labs, facilities with more than 800 digital devices, to ensure performance, quality, compatibility, and reliability. This provides customers with a high level of confidence when using Lexar products to capture, manage, move, and store the memories that matter.

Size Name:32GB
I saw the mix of good reviews and 'these don't work' reviews but because it was exactly what I wanted - physically small with a decent capacity I decided to risk getting one.

When it arrived I thought, 'this IS small.' It actually looks as if there couldn't possibly be 32GB of storage in it. And as it turned out...there wasn't. In fact there was none. It may as well have been a USB connector with a black plastic cap on the end and frankly I saw nothing that convinced me that it wan't exactly that.

It was detected by every computer I tried it in but none of them registered it as having any capactiy whatsoever. The best I could get was a message telling me to insert media...into a usb flash drive!

For those super-brains saying 'they just don't know how to format a drive'...I do. Nothing could write to this thing - windows or linux, fdisk or dd, not any of the dedicated flash drive partitioning/repair tools. These weren't write failures, they were ... 'write to what? There's nothing there.' failures.

Risk it if you want and I hope you get a working one but the amount of people saying the same thing on US amazon etc should make lexar seriously look a their quality control. I won't be getting another of these and I'll be avoiding their other products to boot. It's only got one star for the concept.

At least I got to see that Amazon returns policy and method was excellent - first time I've ever had to use it in many years of shopping.

Size Name:32GB
I was beginning to run low on space on my Sony Vaio with a 128Gb internal SSD. It has 3 USB ports so I installed two of these tiny memory sticks and offloaded media onto one, and less frequently accessed work related files onto the other. The one containing work files is encrypted with BitLocker To Go, and both run quickly enough for this kind of 'offload' use (though I would not recommend them for anything intensive or high performance). The two mini drives stay there permanently and are small enough not to get in the way of anything. A lot less hassle than upgrading the internal drive.

Unfortunately I ignored the other reviews and purchased this flash drive and it arrived faulty. It's not detected by the computer. I tried it in two different machines with no luck so returned for a refund.
