  Duration of ownership:2 Months

  Strengths: High Performance Transfer Rate

  Weaknesses: Looks

  Overall Evaluation: Its a great flash drive, plenty of space, and more than enough for me. It transfers all types of files quickly, and does everything I need it to do. The only reason you wouldn't want to buy it is because of it's looks as to fanciness.

  Strengths: compatibility

  Weaknesses: size

  Overall Evaluation: This is a very nice drive. I bought it because I need to carry around lots of large files. This works great for what I need to do with it. Goes back and forth between Mac and PC without a problem. It transfers files quickly. I've had no problem with it so far. The only small complaint I would have is that the drive itself is pretty big in size when compared to other flash drives, but it's not a big deal.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Small, cheap. transfer speed is OK.

  Weaknesses: cheap looking.

  Overall Evaluation: It is big. 2GB is enough for almost every thing. It is small, easy to carry. It is reliable. I used it for almost one year and never run into any problem with my data. File transfer speed is OK. But it looks cheap making, especially the green color makes it looks not so good.

  Duration of ownership:2 Months

  Strengths: USB2.0. 5.2MB/sec write, 10.4MB/sec read Functional and small. Drives are color coded by size.

  Weaknesses: Plastic case. Nothing unique about the looks.

  Overall Evaluation: My informal experiments yield a write speed of 5.2 MB/sec and read speed of 10.4 MB/sec. Nice small drive. Unlike other manufacturers, Kingston has kept the apperance of the drive fairly simple. The plastic cap doesnt inspire a great deal of faith. Each size (like 512, 1GB, 2GB) has the same basic white color with a different color band (green for 2GB). XP recognizes it very quickly as a flash drive; unlike some other drives I have where there is a delay.

  Duration of ownership:2 Months

  Strengths: Small size, large capacity (2GB)

  Weaknesses: NA

  Overall Evaluation: Tbe drive is very cute and comes with a string that can attach it to a keychain. Usually it takes about 1 minute to copy files of 500 mb to it. The reading speed is even faster. Also the drive looks firm, and there is not much heat after a long time of use. The drive comes with a long time warranty.

  Duration of ownership:5 Weeks

  Strengths: small, lighweight, storage capacity,

  Weaknesses: i think its ugly, i would like a status light

  Overall Evaluation: I have been using this flash drive for over a month now, it works well as expected. Kingston is suppose to be a good brand in storage devices so its no suprise that its fast and easy to use. The drive is ugly in my opinion, I gueess they focused on the inside of the drive more than the outside. This 2GB is an ugly green color, I think each different size has a different color, the 1GB was black and looked much better. I would recommend others to purchase this device, it holds a lot of information and is fast compared to another flash drive I use. These flash drives seem to be dropping in price rather quickly so look for this one under $15.

  Duration of ownership:15 Days

  Strengths: Large capacity, fast transfer speed, small and fancy

  Weaknesses: Only green version is available. Not strongly built.

  Overall Evaluation: Kingston is a famous brand, and I like its products very much. The quality is good, and the price is not high. This usb drive is easy to use. When plugged in, it can be automatically recognized. With the 2GB capacity, I can copy whatever I want. The transfer speed is very fast, even for large files. However, I don't quite like green color. It will be great if more colors are available. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my first 2GB usb drive, and I strongly recommend it.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Pleasant, sleek, and simple appearance. Has a plastic hoop at one endfor attachment to other objects via a short string. Cover snaps intoplace, decreasing chances of loss.

  Weaknesses: Cover is completely detachable.

  Overall Evaluation: This is a simple no frills USB Flash Drive. As such it does not come with any pre-installed software or with the ability to set the drive read only. It is sleek and simple in appearance. The construction appears solid. The cover snaps securely into place and can be stored on the back of the unit when the drive is in use. The sides are ribbed making it effortless to extract the drive from a USB port. For holding 2GB of data it is fairly small in size. I would highly recommend the drive for users having basic USB flash drive needs.
