Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SanDisk Cruzer Micro 4 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive SDCZ6-4096-E11
Customer Review: OK product
Summary: 4 Stars
the flash memory itself seems to be OK, but than again there is no real way of telling in advance, since by definition flash memory is a very reliable product. the main differences between the manufacturers are the outer cover and/software. with this product, the plastic shell fills cheap, and retrospecting, I would have added the additional 7$ or so and get the titanium model. at least there is a 2 year warranty. the U3 software is really nice, and actually upgrades the unit from simple storage level to an almost portable PC. I only wish that there would be a free U3 anti virus. this is a basic tool on this kind of product (helping friends and family recovering their PC and so on). there is a free portable anti virus (clamshell), but it is not U3 compatible.Customer Review: Great U3 Drive!!
Summary: 4 Stars
This drive is great. Plenty of room for all your U3 apps and for your documents and such that are created using U3 apps and to store your other data for transport from PC to PC... I carry mine everywhere and I keep all my email on my thumb drive with Thunderbird.
The only two things I could possibly complain about would be the fact that even though you can retract the plug it is still exposed to lint and other foreign matter. The other problem I have had is the Sandisk U3 slash logo after a while does not show anymore. Rather than the logo it shows two classic "Red X's" like it can't find the images on the system portion of the disk to load them.
Other than that I am pleased with its operation and I would buy another one.
Customer Review: Great product, poor presentation
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered the Cruzer Micro because of my previous good experience with a 256 MB Cruzer for 4 year. I selected this model because of the 4 GB capacity and the U3 features. The product works great, the features are wonderful but the packaging is dismal. The Cruzer is in a flimsy looking plastic casing that feels very weak. After only a few weeks of use by plugging it in and out of computers, I feel that it is loosening. I am afraid that it will fall apart. If a computer has a tight USB port some force needed to be applied to pull it out. By doing that I feel that the case is about to crack. My cheaper and older model has a much stronger casing. I feel that the manufacturer cut corners and put a great product into a cheap casing.Customer Review: -Readyboost Review-
Summary: 4 Stars
I can not comment on the storage features of this flash drive since I intend on only using its readyboost function with windows vista.
Pros:
-Noticeable performance improvement (Vista boot-time, and with video encoding, etc.)
-Capless design (retractable slide button)
Cons:
-Formatted size actually only 3.7 gb
-Orange light flashes when active (Novelty wears off quickly)
-Cheap plastic (Cheap price, so not a big deal)
Overall:
I recommend picking one up, it provides a cheap boost to your vista pc, with little effort, and can be switched with multiple computers. By the way, I tested it with an Acer AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ desktop.
Customer Review: Digital Media Source's 4GB flash drive fiasco
Summary: 1 Stars
The first flash drive arrived in a perfectly intact outer envelope, only the NEW product's packaging ripped and shredded. The flash drive didn't work. I contacted Digital Media Source and they told me to package the flash drive carefully since they wouldn't be responsible for damage!!!!!!! They did send a replacement, which also didn't work. I tested in on my Mac, I tested in on my friend's Mac, I tested it on my Gateway PC and my friend's PC. It didn't work. I returned it again. They wrote back to let me know it was my fault, since when they tested it, it did work. I hope for the sake of the next person they send it to that it really does work. I will NEVER do business with Digital Media Source again.
