After a week of using, transferring files, and using for daily file management...the flash drive locked itself and would not allow files to be removed or added. It write protected itself and will not format. After doing extensive research, there was not a solution for the fix.

I've been using this for a while and I like the USB. Lots of storage for my work files

Great product, really affordable and do what it needs to do.

I got this USB on February 12, 2017 to replace another one that was not working and now this one does not work. I have been buying Kingston for years and never had a problem. The warranty shipping is most likely the same cost to order a replacement.

Kingston is one of the big players for Memory. I have been buying their RAM since Pentium1 / AMD K6 days. Their SSD's are rock solid reliable and cheap to buy. Their thumb drives are no different. Usually budget stuff, but the most dependable brand of memory I know of.

Do yourself and read other reviews. I started copying an ISO to it about 3 hours ago. It's about 10% done as I type this. Not even worth returning or using for ANYTHING. They are going in the trash (3). I got hosed and I hate when that happens.

You could try and find one but you'd end up lying

Slow is not even a word you could use for this thing; The only place this thing is good for is the trash

It's a big ol' jump drive. Works as expected. Decent price for the size. Haven't had any Kingston failures.

I'm a huge fan of the look and the cap-less design, but I'm not sure about its reliability over time since it tends to run so warm. It seems reliable so far, but I would recommend avoiding long read/write sessions to prevent the drive from overheating itself.

-No Indicator Light (Showing when the drive is busy and when safe to remove -Gets VERY Warm While In Use (May be a cause for concern regarding longevity of the drive -Slow Write Speeds For Advertised USB 3.0 Interface (Similar to speeds of USB 2.0 Drives
