4 out of 5 stars Works fine   November 23, 2008
Sleek design with retracting connector. The main down side is the little blue LED light on the side that shows that the device has successfully connected, or is transmitting or receiving data, ALWAYS seems to be on the wrong side, where it cannot be easily seen.


5 out of 5 stars Hyperx speed for your money   November 15, 2008
I bought this USB drive in March of 2008, when it was almost $100 more. For the current price, it's a heck of a deal. This USB drive is much faster than many of the other USB drives currently on the market, including from Kensington. The higher capacity drives (32gb and 64gb) have not achieved the transfer speed of the Hyperx drive. It works in both my Mac computer at home and my PC at work without any problems. The slide feature means never having to worry about the cap. If you need an 8GB drive, seriously consider the Kensington Hyperx. You may spend a little more (not nearly as much as I did) but you will not be disappointed.


4 out of 5 stars The fastest USB flash memory   October 23, 2008
I have many usb flash drives, but I need really fast one to use it as hard disk. I started to search from 16GB upto 64GB. But those big capacity ones have slow speed especially for lots of small file writing. I ended up choosing this one. This is really fast. You can't compare this to the others with speed. I would have give it 5 stars if the housing is a little thinner. It's hard to insert this to my macbook air. I have to push it hard to connect to air because there are gaps between usb socket and housing. It feels like that one day I may break the usb part of my air.


5 out of 5 stars Should have bought this a long time ago   July 10, 2008

This is by far the best USB flash drive I have used in a long time. The read/write speed is amazingly fast compared to your normal consumer level drive.

It is a little on the bigger side, but not excessive in any means. It also does not block any of your other USB ports :).
