Product Description

The TravelDrive USB 2.0 flash drive offers users a convenient way to store data, digital photos, video and MP3 files and then easily access them from any PC or Mac using the computer's USB port. The USB TravelDrive is now slimmer and cooler than ever before. At .85 inch wide, these USB flash drives are 30% smaller than the original TravelDrive, while retaining a round, textured gripping area that makes for superior ergonomics. The transparent cap that protects the device's USB connector is specially designed to fit on the back of the drive, like a pen cap, to prevent loss. A reinforced aluminum lanyard loop on the back of the drive is highly resistant to breaking, and a blue LED indicator adds to the cool factor of this versatile mobile storage device. Compatibility - Windows 98SE, 2000, ME & XP, Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 & 10(X) or higher, USB 2.0 or 1.1 compatible, 4GB digital storage capacity Dimensions - Length 3.0 x Width 0.85 x Height 0.33 inch

Oh you can go wrong buying from Memorex and there is a surprise!

I just bought the 4 Gig GEN2 adn my last Memorex anything.

NOTE from Memorex WEB page:

USB Flash Drives (TravelDrives)

Limited 1-Year Warranty: Memorex warrants this product against defects for one year from the date of original purchase. Purchaser's exclusive remedy is limited to replacement of any defective product. This warranty applies to the original purchaser, proof of original retail purchase is required. This warranty specifically excludes damage caused by misuse, abuse, improper storage, or use in a commercial application. This warranty applies only to this product and excludes bundled software, connected equipment or data recorded in any form. In no event shall Memorex be responsible for any direct, incidental, consequential or other damages of any kind.

You can see the warranty states replace! I just called them as the 4-gig drive I just bought is dead. I plugged it into the computer, transferred one small file to it and went to transfer the second and the drive was "write protected". There is no fix and I cannot remove my data from it. I found allot of people on the web that have the same problem. Nobody can fix it. Even Memorex states it cannot be fixed.

It was plugged in for 2 minutes. Memorex tells me I can ship it to them and they will send me a "reconditioned" unit. OR, I can contact the online company I bought it from and have them replace it. So, I paid $60.00 for new and got 2 min of use and they want to send me a reconditioned unit that if it happens again, they will claim there is no warranty for reconditioned product. They will not send a new one and THEY WANT ME TO SEND MY DATA TO SOMEONE ELSE.

You will also note the warranty on the web is 1 year. The warranty with the drive is 2 years. Well 2 years or 2 min. which ever comes first. I'm done. I won't do business with a multi-million dollar company that FAILS to disclose they replace product with refurbished item and makes there money by ripping off the little guy or the people who sell there product.

5.0 out of 5 stars 4GB Traveldrive, January 23, 2007

A Kid's Review

This review is from: 4GB Memorex USB Traveldrive GEN2 (Personal Computers)

This flash drive is amazing, it is so much better than my PNY Attatche`. It has plenty of space and has a nice sleak erganomic design. Unlike my Attatche` the cover fits on the back even with the lanyard clipped on! It also built sturdily, unlike the attatche` that you could pull the covers off of it.

Have not had any problems yet. I needed more space to store 5 years worth of pics, and may buy another. Much better than carrying around 4 1GB thumb drives.
