- Strengths:
- Bought this about 2 years ago (8GB version and on the package it says Lifetime Warranty), still fast and working...
- Weaknesses:
- Not bootable in DOS/FAT32 (maybe i made a mistake to format it in NTFS???, lazy to test it again :))...)
- Summary:
- Read speed 200x meaning...200x of CD transfer speed (150KB/s) that is about 30MB/s
average flash-drive

- Strengths:
- It is currently the cheapest 16G out there.
The thick rubber coat can protect the unit from hard drops, and water. - Weaknesses:
- The rubber coat is a dust magnet.
The rubber cap can get lost easily if you hang it on your key chain.
The speed is ok, but not as fast as I expected. X200 doesn't mean it is 200 times faster... hehe - Summary:
- Despite of the weaknesses i posted, it is still a satisfying product.

- Strengths:
- Writing 1 GB data in 100 MB packets was under 2 min. Very acceptable.
Strong built
Good price - Weaknesses:
- Only the rubberized coat is slightly too thick. One slot on one of the computer was a little conjested.
- Summary:
- I used quite a few USB drives transferring data at work and at home. The speed of this more or less the same as the OCZ Rally2 that I.m using. Persons obtaining slow speed either they were using USB 1.x or having problem with USB i/o problem.
Good Product

- Strengths:
- - Fast Upload and Download Speed
- Rubberized Exterior - Weaknesses:
- Rubberized Cap seems to disappear quickly
- Summary:
- All In all it is a good product and would recommend it!
Handy, but very slow.

- Strengths:
- - Handy size (wxlxh)
- Tough rubber exterior
- Good capacity
- Great price - Weaknesses:
- - Very slow to copy files. 3 GB takes an hour with the stick optimized for speed. 1 GB per hour without optimization. (this on a new 2008 Acer laptop)
- Too slow to really use other than to transfer or back something up. - Summary:
- A good product hampered by it's way too slow transfer speeds.
One of the best out there!

- Strengths:
- Price per GB ratio of 60/16 = 3.75 per gig. Better than much that is out there. Transfer speed is among the highest as well. The rubber coating is very shock resistant, and high quality.
A quick HD Tach test revealed a read speed of 33.8 MB/S - Weaknesses:
- There is nothing actually wrong with this stick. People think it is a poor stick because it takes 8 minutes to copy everything from it. But in actual fact, it is one of the fastest out there, but only takes so long because it is like draining a lake with a jet engine powered pump. The pump is the best, but it has such a large capacity to move.
- Summary:
- Great stick, one of the best out there. It will perform for you consistently and do anything you need for a very reasonable price.
Get it.
Very Good

- Strengths:
- It is portable, Fast, Water Proof, with lots of space and is very handy
- Weaknesses:
- The rubber needs to be thicker and the unit on the inside does not stick to the rubber that well.
Price is too high, but you are paying for portabilitly. - Summary:
- Over all it is very useful, especially if you are a Tech.
Nice and Fast, Great Value for the Price
8/21/2008 4:39:18 PMJason Dunn from Calgary, AB writes:
- Strengths:
- It's quite fast: I copied 1.03 GB worth of large (100 MB+) files from the USB flash drive and it took 35 seconds. It peaked at about 32 MB/s read speed. I copied 1.03 GB of files to the USB flash drive, and it took 1 minute 22 seconds. It peaked at about 13 MB/s write speeds.
- Weaknesses:
- It's kind of cheesy and chunky looking, but the rubberized shell does a good job of protecting it. I'd have preferred a sleeker design, but I'm not carrying this in my pocket so it doesn't matter that much.
- Summary:
- The other guy who wrote the review for this product must have been using a USB 1.1 port, because this flash drive would back up 1 GB worth of data in about 80 seconds, not five hours.
speed units, cap falls off

- Strengths:
- Apart from the complaints listed, no probs. yet.
- Weaknesses:
- What on earth does 150x transfer speed mean? 150 times what? When I made a backup to this key, it took very roughly five hours per gigabyte.
I assume "up to 150x" just means "has an internal memory buffer".
I put this flash memory drive on my key chain, which hangs at my belt. The cap fell off and vanished within a week. I've never lost a Kingston plastic cap; this rubber-cup cap does not work well, and is about twice as bulky. The whole product is about twice as bulky as the Kingston flash , - Summary:
- The "weakness" field just froze. Apologies for the lack of editing.
