I bought this drive when Amazon offered it in the Gold Box for $8 and it is definitely worth it. I know that there has been some criticism of this drive for not having a cap or it’s clean design. Neither of these points bother me and they certainly do not impact the performance of the drive. Put simply, if you’re reading customer reviews because you want to know how well the drive performs, keep reading. If you’re more concerned about a “pretty” drive, this isn’t the review for you.

So far the drive has lived up to its selling points. I have three machines on Windows 7, one on Vista Premium and a netbook on Windows XP. I didn’t have any problems using the drive with any of my machines. I am an avid photographer and I used several large photo files as well as some home videos to test this drive. File transfers to and from the drive were as fast as I’ve seen with other flash drives costing more. It really is a speedy little drive. This is also a good drive for ReadyBoost.

I’ve only had this drive for a couple of days and cannot make any claims as to long term reliability just yet but I’ve had good luck with other Toshiba products.

This worked perfectly and I encountered no problems when using it. Sturdy, quick, convenient plug and play and comes with a user manual if you do happen to have any problems/questions. I used it on two computers, one with Windows 7 and one with Vista and it worked on both.

Toshiba flash drives have always been fast and dependable, comparable to PNY. They don’t come with lousy pre-loaded software that gets in the way of a serious computer nerd

This is a great fast drive. I especially like the retractable USB connector so there is no cap to misplace. The USB connector slides in and out easily with your thumb. Easy to transfer files from laptop to laptop/PC. Unfortunately, I many versions of Windows on various computers, and so networking them is difficult and frustrating. The USB drive is great for simply moving around files like pictures. There is also a small hole in the side to put a string through so you can hang it on a keychain. The product is made in Taiwan.

I like the retractable feature of this flash drive. It provides protection and you don’t have to keep track of the cap that many flash drives have.
