Kingston 32GB USB 3.0 DataTraveler G4 Red/White FLASH DRIVE

This seems to be a well made flash drive, it should survive fine in a drawer or a bag particularly since it has a cap.

Performance is good for the price. In short, large files are read at about 115MB/sec and written at about 35MB/sec. Compared with a more expensive Sandisk Ultra Shift flash drive the read is a little slower but the write is a lot faster, and it's more robust.

Can't complain really, its faster than older drives I have but nothing too amazing, and it's larger, so does exactly what I needed it for - and the price is right. Thank you.

I needed a few USB pens to transfer data and photos around with me, and these were cheap so I did not expect much from then. Wrong again, these USB Pens are really good quality and being USB3, are not slow.
The end has a ring you can attach a key ring or lanyard too for ease of moving. I now have 3 and do not regret buying them.

Bought this flash drive to upgrade my 7 year old 8 gb Kingston. So far, performance is good. This might not be the fastest flash drive but, for its price point, it's already a good purchase since I trust Kingston for its reliability, durability and cheaper than other branded usb fds of the same capacity.

Never had a problem with Kingston. Good read/write speed, and a great price from PB Tech. Never had a problem with Kingston. Good read/write speed, and a great price from PB Tech.

Its a USB stick - not much else to say but for the price it offers amazing value. Its a USB stick - not much else to say but for the price it offers amazing value.

I only needed it for a windows install. It did the trick. I only needed it for a windows install. It did the trick.
