Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 Generation 2 Review – Last year, Kingston released the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 USB flash drive, the fastest USB flash drive with a native USB 3.0 controller and comes in a whooping huge space, up to 64 GB (check Craving Tech's DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 review ).

Even faster than the first generation model; Large capacity; USB 2 compatible; Can be attached to a keyring

Size a bit bulky; Apart from the speed; nothing else is new in the Generation 2 model

Slightly bigger and more expensive than a standard USB flash drive, but with many times

This drive was exactly what i was looking for. It is affordable, fast, stylish, and works perfect on my Macbook Air Laptop. The transfer speeds are so much faster on USB 3.0 vs. the old usb 2.0 technology. I transferred an 1.6 GB video file from my laptop to this drive in under 30 seconds.

Easy To Use; Fast; Faster; High Capacity; Portable; Reliable

None

Three points -affordable -fast -looks great! just as fast or faster with my system (usb 3.0, i7-2630QM) only complaint is its a little bulky.

"That was an awkward question to ask," someone jumped in as I was having a conversation with another friend. "It was almost like asking when their wedding is." Responding to his remark, I jokingly addressed my friend and said, "So, when's your wedding?

I am a fan of Kingston flash drives and I have several drives. I wouldn't not recommend this drive. I would just chalk this dead one up to 1 out of 1000 just being duds and if you buy enough of a product you will eventually get a broken one.

This flash drive has an awesome outer casing that is perfect for putting on a key chain

I had this drive for just under a week and it died on me; It showed no space on it; My PC (and a few other PC's with a wide range of OS's) would recognized it but if you tried to click on it, it would ask you to insert the drive

It's really fast ~ A + for that. But, it's too big - have to take other cords/ports out to use it on my mac laptop. Wish it came a litter smaller.

The Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 G3 is a worthy successor to the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 G2 and we like the new stylish looks and improved read speeds!

The 32GB Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 flash drive can be found just under $100 in Canada and in the U.S. making it an affordable first USB 3.0 flash drive solution for new adopters of the standard.
