1 out of 5 stars Arrived Dead - Transcend Website Does not Respond   August 28, 2008
This item arrived in excellent physical condition, and the box was also pristine. When plugged into my Acer laptop it shows as a storage device with 0 bytes capacity, and I'm asked to "Insert Media". I've posted two inquiries so far on Transcend's Website in the customer service page, and in both cases I was promised a response within two business days. After the second posting I left on a vacation before the two days had expired, and now, on my return, find that my Amazon return window has closed. No response from Transcend either time. I figure I was just robbed. Neither Transcend nor Amazon will ever get any more business from me.


4 out of 5 stars A little "extra" storage memory for a solid state notebook   April 28, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased this product as a "test" - as some previous reviews complained about its read/write speed. As I own a sub 3-lb notebook with 64 GByte total Solid-State "hard drive" - I wanted some "semi-permanent" (32 GByte in this case) - additional on-board storage - that I could place IN the express card slot and essentially "forget about it" - and basically store ALL of my documents on the external drive.

In my 4 weeks of use - I have NO COMPLAINTS about its speed - while obviously NOT as fast as the main storage device - it is FAST ENOUGH - for ALL of my documents, photos, and some videos stored on the Transcend device.

My "only" complaint about the express card slot (NOT THE DEVICE ITSELF) - is that it is all too easy for the "eject button" to be actuated while carrying the computer in its case - so every once in a while the card is ejected - without my planned action - so I've just gotten in the habit of a quick-check when pulling the computer out of its case. (Maybe I'll TAPE the button down!!!!!)

So - to summarize the product is doing EVERYTHING I expected of it - and I've purchased a SECOND unit (for my wife's identical computer) - which for some reason has not been shipped for over a month - I wonder if this storage medai has finally been "discovered" - and is now totally out of stock - I would not be surprised.

PS - I've using the Transcend with Vista Business - and 2 GByte of system RAM (along with a 64 GByte SSD).
