1 out of 5 stars crappy   April 4, 2007
I use this type of flash drive for my research and more than half the time I can never view the images on the computer or get the flash drive to work....not worth buying


5 out of 5 stars Love It or Hate It   January 16, 2007
You can love it or hate it based on what all you put on it. If you have a hodgepodge of medium-sized or small things, then it can work for you, but if you have large files, well, of course, a bigger GB would make more sense.

It's just perfect for my random needs--semi-large text documents, videos, songs, and pictures, and it even comes with a nice lanyard so that you don't lose it (well, that's if you actually put it around your neck). ;)

It is worth having.



1 out of 5 stars Faulty Driver   September 17, 2006
I bought this drive only a few hours ago, saved very important documents to it, and all of a sudden, it doesn't want to open on me. It states that the drive needs to be reformatted, doing this would cause me to lose all of my data. Terrible, I warn you not to buy this product, not worth it!


5 out of 5 stars Washed and Dried but it still works   July 23, 2006
My drive got mixed in with the wash. I found it as I was taking the clothes out and was worried but I plugged it in and it works fine and all data is intact.

As for the transfer rate I haven't seen any big issues with it. It is similar to the PNY 1GB that I also own.

You can get these pretty cheap now even without a rebate so if you are looking for a good 1GB stick this is the one.



5 out of 5 stars Write-protect is a Plus   June 1, 2006
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Overall, excellent product.

Speed is slows down with very large files, but generally no problem.

Especially I like the easy-to-use write-protect switch. In fact, I wouldn't buy a USB flash drive without the switch.

Linux "Live" distrobutions will run from this device. Copy your favorite flavor (Knoppix, PCLinuxOS, Slax, Kanotix all work) to the flash pen and run from there. This is better, speed wise, than running from the CD, but has all the advantages of a Live CD-based OS. Considering the amount of compression to fit all those applications in 700MB, you'd think that applications would run slowly, but they run quick.

If you consider yourself moderately adept with Linux, make two partitions on this drive. Copy Live Linux to the big partition. Set up your configuration, templates and such, and save on the small partition. Flip the write protect switch. Now you have a custom configured, fast, totally rock solid and absolutely secure OS.
