Update: I just tried to watch a movie that I transferred on to this flash drive on my Sony Blu-ray player and got the devastating (non supported or unknown file source in front USB Port) error message. Darn this flash drive had me going when I uploaded my movie files from my computer to this flash drive and they played flawlessly. Then I finally give it the true test to see if I could use my theater system to watch em and I get this known error message. Updating my star rating due to this big problem to 2 stars until I find the answers to my not supported flash drive message or if redeemed as needing to return I will change it to 3 stars. Time will tell back to the drawing board.
Final Update: I am giving it the 3 stars due to it works great on computers but I like to use it with my other devices as well. So, it hasn't worked in other devices I tried LG and Sony. It's being sent back for refund. I already went back to my Silcon Power brand that I bought past Jan. I have had this 32gb from Silcon for over a year and its worked flawlessly on every device I connected it too. They only carry the max of 64gb. As long is it works correctly I will deal with it.
However, this drive does do something which annoys me to no end. When inactive (access light neither on nor flashing), and you attempt to open or otherwise access a new file, the drive often does not respond with the data you requested for 3-7 seconds... leaving the application attempting to access it frozen until it gets the data. Since Windows likes to touch upon all the metadata of the files in a directory, this can mean an irritating 30+ second wait before you can see the contents of a folder if browsing with Windows Explorer.This leads me to believe that the low price is due to a cheap memory controller. I've never noticed such behavior in any flash storage before. The issue also appears to exist when writing new data.
The odd thing is that the drive does not always have such a delay. Sometimes, I can quickly open three files within a few seconds of each other, and the drive will act normal. Then, it'll suddenly decide to leave me waiting when trying to access the fourth. Sometimes, I can open a folder that has hundreds of files, and it opens normally. Other times, I have to wait, as Windows lists sub-files and folders, one by one...
However, it is slow to transfer large files. Most flash drives suffer from this problem, though, so it is to be expected. It can still get frustrating when you want to transfer a several gig media file and have to wait about 10 minutes.
It's 128GB which is insane. I back up my entire MacBook Air on this one drive. The back-ups take a long time but the money I saved and the small size make it such a better option than a hard drive.
All in all, if you don't need a super-fast drive then this is the deal for you.
Giving 4 stars and not 5 just because have not used it long enough to prove its durability. The last star I will keep it for next year to account for the product lifespan. If the drive is still working next year I will give next time 5 stars!
Used mostly for transfer of files, drivers, and BIOS for new systems. Usually takes 4-5 drives to complete a new Windows installation.
I do find that the larger capacity (16GB and above) are slower. The 4 and 8GB are quick. Format complete after use with no residue left over, Space is lost each time, that's a trait of these not a fault.
