Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Doesn't work with Vista! Comment: Works fine with my XP laptop, but my brand new Vista PC doesn't like it. It will read from the USB stick no problem but will not write anything larger than 1 meg to the USB Stick. Probably Microsofts fault but worth bearing this in mind if you intend to use this with a Vista PC. Customer Rating: Summary: Brilliant (and washing machine-proof) Comment: Amazing bit of kit, quick to use, simple and lots of storage in a very compact package. So compact in fact, I lost it. Only to find it a month later, caught in the the rubber seal of my washing machine. It must have gone through 14 or 15 wash cycles, the casing is scratched to hell but incredibly it STILL WORKS just as well as it did before. And all the stuff that was on it is completely fine. Absolutely awesome. Customer Rating: Summary: Don't get caught with this one!!!!! Comment: Check postage before you order! I nearly got caught out! Item is listed at £0.01 but postage is £4.40. I checked to see how much ten items would be and it is £44.00. I don't know why Amazon permit people to fleece customers like this Customer Rating: Summary: 8GB USB 2.00 Flash Drive (Brand New & Free Delivery) Comment: specifications High reliability & access rate 8GB Storage Capacity - Supports USB specification version 2.0 Support user password Support data compression function /decompression Antimagnetic & astigmatic Wipe and write data for 1 million times Keep data for more than 10 years Introduction System requirement: Hardware: IBM PC or Compatible PC or Notebook or Apple with USB interface Operating system: Windows 98/SE, Windows ME/2000/XP, Mac Os Linux Kernel 2.4X and others supported by USB Mass Storage.

They offer a durable, compact, and speedy method of transferring data, as well as acting as a back-up solution. Flash drives are ever increasing in capacity and decreasing in cost, but there is one problem to the buyer. The variety available to you is huge. Simply typing the words "Flash Drive" into the search engine of Amazon.co.uk resulted in a staggering 2,709 results, so how do you pick one that meets your needs? Almost everyone I know has a flash drive of some description. Some are bigger, some are smaller, some are different colours, some have an extendable (USB) bit, some come with built in encryption software, some come in novelty shapes and so forth. But alas they can also vary considerable in price. Sadly I somehow managed to lose my existing Flash Drive a few weeks ago (slightly worrying actually as I was making bread at the time - but err, I'm told it tasted fine.) Anyway I was in the market for a replacement. I've used Kingston branded devices before, so I decided to invest in this 4Gb DataTraveler for the fantastic price of £6.29. After using it, I would describe the flash drive as basic, good value with no frills. It's small and light but still feels robust and therefore reliable. It's neat and discreet in design, and it was recognised instantly by both of my computers as a mass storage device. It seems pretty fast in terms of data transfer time both too and from the computer (you can simply drag and drop data.) And the four gigabyte capacity offers everything I require (bigger models are available if you need more storage space). It also lights up when in use, which looks good if nothing else. As expected with the price, there are no security features such as encryption software or a write protect slider switch. But my data (usually university work) isn't actually that valuable. If you were concerned you could simply password protect your files in a ZIP archive. My only concern is with the lid. While keeping out dust and moisture, it is a bit small for my liking, as I'll probably end it loosing it. But other than that I haven't had any problems at all. Overall, everything I needed for a single figure sum of money. If you're looking for a basic flash drive that delivers what it promises, then I would recommend this one. More Reviews
