Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Kingston DataTraveler 100 - 2 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive DT100/2GB
Customer Review: Fast, cheap, convenient, what's not to like?
Summary: 5 Stars
I just did an archive of about a century's worth of family photographs, and bought 10 of these drives for the transfer. Not a huge investment, but I wanted the easiest, simplest, fastest, and most durable USB drive I could find, so I researched on the web and came up with the Kingston product.
I'm not at all disappointed. I've worked with a lot of different USB drives before, and the data transfer from my desktop to the Kingston was noticeably faster than any other drive I've used.
The retractable interface is a huge improvement over the models with caps (which I seem to lose almost immedately).
I highly recommend this product.
Customer Review: Kingston Hi-Speed Data Traveller 2GB USB Flash Memory
Summary: 3 Stars
Product is ok. $$$ for flash is dropping fast. Look to pay no more than $5/GB for 1-2 gigs; $4/GB for 4-8 gigs... Make sure it has a High Speed USB connection (i.e. USB 2.0). Make sure you get a secure memory stick if you plan on keeping confidential information or sensitive material. Also try to find the specs at which it reads and writes, this is where this lacks a little. Lexar Lightning Jump Drive has both security software and can read at 24MB/sec and write at 18MB/sec... but costs a bit more ($6/GB for 1-2 gigs and $5/GB for 4 gigs).Customer Review: Good price, improved over previous version.
Summary: 4 Stars
Cheap flash drives never state their writing speed, so I wasn't sure if this DT100 was going to be any better than the older DTI.
I used a set of 116 different MP3s, ranging from 3.5MB to 4.5MB, with a total size of 447 MB. The DTI took 153 seconds to write the files (2.92MB/s). This DT100 only needed 96 seconds (4.65MB/s) for the same files.
There are much faster drives available, but for the rock-bottom price, this one is good.
Customer Review: Great Product For a Low Price
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this thing!Its great for music,pics,ect.If your like me and have a ton of stuff on your computer and need space this is a must have.Kingston is one of the most reliable companys iv come across and have never had any problems with their products.Its light weight and compact(about 2in long,half an inch wide)and it has a button on the side to slide the connector in and out so you have no cap to lose!All in all its a good product.Customer Review: Cracks in half
Summary: 1 Stars
I have bought over 3 dozen various memory keys for my students. By far, the worst one is this memory key. It cracks in half within a week, and my children lose all their work. Everyone of these that I have given to my students has cracked. Now, the white Kingston Data Traveler with the cap on it and the square ribbon holder is by far the best one. These thumb drives have lasted for over a year now.
