Had One For Over A Year And Couldn't Be More Pleased!August 21, 2008 I have owned one of these thumb drives for over a year now and constantly carry it in my jacket pocket and use it on the average of about twice a week to transfer a variety of different files from simple word documents to photographs, software related files, etc. and have had absolutely no problems with it. Other than at times wishing it had the capacity to hold at least another 4 or 5 gigs of information.
The only negative thing that I have had happen is that occasionally when transferring file it will sometimes come up with an error message concerning a certain file. When this happens I merely disconnect the thumb drive and then reinsert it and download the files again. This happens rarely, maybe once every 20 or 30 times.

One just stopped.August 21, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased 2 of these. One for me and one for my 16yr old son. Mine is doing fine. Holds lots of files and pics. My sons drive was full of music and school files. he was eraseing the music to swap it out. And the drive just quite working. It reads the usb, but does not find any free or used space on the drive.
Price/quality ratio among the best for 4gb flash drivesAugust 20, 2008 The Data Traveler 4gb flash drive has got to be one of the best deals on a flash drive available. Fast write times, a simple but quality design, and a stellar price make this the flash drive of choice around the office.
I prefer the Patriot XT 4GB, which is more rugged, and faster than the Data Traveler, but also more expensive.
Still going strong...August 18, 2008 I have had this thumb drive for about 6 months now and I haven't had any issues. I use it to carry files back and forth to work that I use daily and this thumb drive never skips a beat. Getting ready to buy another for my wife.
Good storage space, small size, decent constructionAugust 14, 2008 What I like most about this product is the ratio of storage space to price. This device allows me to carry 4 GB worth of data -- a little less than a DVD -- in my pocket. Instead of using multiple smaller drives or flash memory cards for different things, I've migrated to this drive as my all-in-one solution.
The construction is good: it is very light-weight, it feels good in my hand, and the plastic is strong. The cap stays clipped, and when the drive is in use, you can place the cap on the opposite end (as long as it's not attached to a keychain) for safe-keeping. The status light is clearly visible when the device is in use.
I use this on multiple PCs, and it fits every USB port comfortably. I also use it to transfer music and video files from my PC to the drive, and then plug the drive into my Xbox 360 to watch the videos or listen to the music. It works well for that purpose and I have yet to encounter any corrupt files or other read/write errors. The write speed is satisfactory.
