Very fast transfer rate. First time I copied something I thought it had not worked as I didn't get a graphic display for progress...not enough time had passed for it to display!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this flash drive and started moving files from my PC to it as a backup. Very shortly into this process the drive started having issues with duplicate files and ended up freezing up my whole computer. After it was unfrozen I lost access to the drive. It would show up in my devices as "unspecified" but there was nothing I could do to access the drive even after troubleshooting. I hope it starts randomly working one day but until then I can't recommend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought to use as EVGA storage for my Xbox One. No problems installing it AMD downloading games to it. Games are playing very well from the drive! The casing is a little thick and I had to use the back USB port instead of the side port.

Works perfectly with both of my laptops! I needed an adapter for my older one, but that’s not Kingston’s fault; plenty of storage space too

All and all the drive is ok. There are a couple things I don't care for. 1. the loop where you can add a key chain ring to it is flimsy, I wouldn't trust it not to break. 2. The base of the unit is to wide to hook to my cell phone with the case on it. The drive I lost ( Not a Kingston) because of the flimsy plastic place for the key chain ring was small enough to connect to my phone without removing the case. I bought it to keep on my person at all times but I have decided to put it in the puter bag and keep looking for a suitable drive.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
