As the description states, this product worked for me for about 2 weeks before internal components overheated and broke. This product was fast while it lasted , but I would not recommend it due to a bad design, and very short life.

On the lookout for a flash drive that not only offers ample storage but also great performance? If so, Kingston's DT HyperX 3.0 is well worth a look. It's available in 64GB - 256GB flavors and offers performance of 225MB/s read and 135MB/s write.

Kingston's HyperX brand has a good reputation in memory components, such as the Kingston HyperX Genesis 2,133MHZ 16GB RAM , and in solid state hard drives such as the Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD .

Large capacity for a USB thumb drive; Very fast; Robust design

Bulky case can make plugging it in tricky; Cap could be easily lost

USB sticks, thumb drives, pen drives, call them what you will their usefulness cannot be overstated. In these times when most of us have at the least a computer and a console, but far more likely we have a couple of computers, a laptop, maybe one or two consoles, a TV with USB in etc.

(at time of review) If you've taken any more than a passing interest in the NAND Flash or RAM market the name Kingston Technology will have come up time and again. In the DRAM market Kingston supply 46% of memory modules, a staggering figure when you stop to consider it, and also hold a significant...

I chose Kingston because their products are top quality and well-designed. I plan on using this USB 3.0, 128 GB device as the data backup for my new Dell XPS 12 UltraBook, 128 GB SSD.

It's fast, it has a large capacity. But the only problem I found is the size of it. it is very wide and also thick. So if you have 2 USB's stacked right beside each other I literally can't plug it in unless I unplug the other one. That's my only problem with it.

It's been a while since we've looked at the original Kingston HyperX USB flash drive, about 3.5 years actually. For it's time, we found that the 4GB HyperX drive was very fast and at the top of its class. Today, we're looking at a drive from the current HyperX line.
