Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Kingston DataTraveler 100 - 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive DT100/16GB
Customer Review: Worked great a 1 year, but died afterwards
Summary: 1 Stars
I used the device a little over a year for word documents and transferring files between computers. However, I noticed it started getting a lot of errors on my new Windows 7 notebook, and eventually it crashed during a word document save. After that, it became unrecognizable to PCs and Macs. It should be covered by the 5 year warranty with Kingston, but I lost valuable data. I own 4 different flash drives, and this is the first to die on me. I would not recommend this product.Customer Review: Excellent build, fast transfers
Summary: 5 Stars
The Kingston DataTraveler 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive is an extremely well built unit with fast transmission speed and easy to use interface. It has a slider to hide and protect the connection part and doesn't come with anything on it so it doesn't autolaunch some bogus software every time you plug it in. It has the slot to attach a string to but it doesn't come included which means that the buyer has to find a string of his own which is not that bad I wish it had included one.Customer Review: no dust/dirt protection
Summary: 2 Stars
this f/d has a retractable usb connector...which is a great idea... unfortunately, it isn't protected and stuff can collect in the usb connection while retracted...
think of your dig cam with retracted lens with no cover...
i sure wouldn't want to screw up any of my usb connections trying to insert a messed up usb connector...
as far as the 16gb goes...it works great... i'd just recommend one with a cap...
Customer Review: Good Buy
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this item on sale.
Formated it to the EXT3 Linux File system.
Installed Puppy Linux on it, with a bunch of multimedia
files.
I use it every day for e-mail and surfing the Web.
I like it.
It's faster than the other types of Thumb drives, I have.
Yes, It does have a lock on the thumb slider, to hold the
plug in place.
If you cand find one for thirty bucks or less, Grab it.
Customer Review: Movility + big storage = A must to have
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have large media files and programs, consider buying this product, it is also great if you need a quick back up to format your computer if you don't have a partition in your hard drive. I have also two computers in my home with wireless network, but if you can't wait too long and you must move large files (+ 2GB) between them, moving it with this flash drive will be quicker, as it is USB 2.0).
I highly recommend it.
