1 out of 5 stars Not suitable for "ready boost"   October 23, 2008
John Stark
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Really disappointed with this item, writes at only 3mb/s that's less than half the speed of my other usb 2.0 flash drive, if you're only looking to store items it'll do the job, just be prepared to wait, especially if you've got some big files to back up. Also because of the slow speed you can't use this for "ready boost", so it's really down to what you need it for.


4 out of 5 stars Good value but slow   October 6, 2008

This flash drive is great value at 13 for 8GB, but surprisingly for a modern branded drive it is too slow for Windows Vista's ReadyBoost feature. If you have no need for that function then the drive works well, and is physically a neat design. Does have a pull off cap which would be easy to loose, however at present it would be hard to find such a high capacity drive for this amount or less.


1 out of 5 stars Poor build   October 1, 2008

Was great until plastic hook on end of drive snapped with minimal wear after 20 days. Although I back up data I nearly lost a lot. Sorry guys, need to improve the build quality.


1 out of 5 stars Postage policy needs to be reviewed   September 22, 2008

This is a con again. Trying to buy quantities of low value products on Amazon is not worth it as if you order 20 items you will be charged 20 times the postage when it probably costs no more to send 20 item as it does 1. I will not buy anything from Amazon again until this matter is addressed.


4 out of 5 stars Not bad   September 13, 2008

I got 2 of these as I've always been quite happy with Kingston.

I did some tests on performance:
Copied 5 x 100Mb files to the drive - ranged from 35 - 40 seconds over 4 tests.
Copied them back again in about 30 seconds - A little disappointed with this, I expected it to be a lot quicker.

Overall a good flash drive.
