Kingston 128GB DataTraveler 100 G3 USB 3.0 100MB/s Read, 10MB/s Write (DT100G3/128GB)

Ive been using this drive for about 4 months and its exactly what I was looking for, nice storage, nice speed since its USB 3, and pretty portable. Nice drive!

The drive its self seems fine at the moment. but the packing was opened.

I am sure it is a fine product but it didnt work for me. I bought a 2021 Subaru Outback & it recommended this brand to download map updates to install in my car. Couldnt be done just over wifi. I needed 35 gb so this was the available size. Took over 2 hours twice to download maps on this drive. Wouldnt load in my car. Erased and redid to no avail. The files seemed to be on the disk each time but you cant open them without the program which is in the car. I bought 2 of these. Really have no other use for them as the cloud covers every back up need. I cant really blame the disc as it did have the data on it.

I purchased this for my son to use on his computer for game/other storage. Kingston advertises that this USB has 64GB of storage. But, when he ran a test on it, it only shows 57GB available storage. I understand that a small amount, maybe 1-2GB, might be used for various things by Kingston. But, to use up 7GB of storage on this device is too much. If you advertise 64GB, it should actually have 64GB available storage. This USB works fine as it comes, for storing individual files under 4GB, without having to make any changes in settings. My son had to use Windows command run prompt, to change to NTFS, in order to store individual files that are over 4GB. If a file is over 4GB, the formatting of the USB won’t allow it to be stored, unless you make these changes in settings. The writing speed is fairly fast. He said it reached up to 24.9MBS. Has place on one end to hook to chain or key ring.

Kingston Digital 128GB DataTraveler is a good value for the money. The 128 GB appears to be the set standard for now. The memory stick is a little bigger than I wanted in terms of size. A competitor does make a similar size memory stick that is quite small and easy to use. However, I had catastrophic failer with that memory stick. Kingston has software that will recover and rejuvenate your memory stick should it be corrupted. That is why I recommend this product.

I might have given this a 5 Star rating if not for following conditions. Its not near as fast as is claimed HOWEVER thats probably because of the Dell Im using. I installed an internal USB 3 PCI-E card in my Dell Optiplex 780 Mini Tower. It may very well be that that the system bus or the card I used is the bottleneck here. Im not tech savvy enough to give you guys a real answer on this. Still, it IS faster than USB 2 thats for sure. Add-On review: As of 06/25/2018 I have come to the conclusion that this would be a very good USB 2 flash drive, but NOT a good USB 3 flash drive. I should have been more critical of it when i first purchased it so I could get my money back. Too late now. Shame on Kingston for releasing this product as labeled. This is the LASt Kingston product I ever buy.

I use this drive to relocate files that are larger than 4 GB so I Changed storage to the NTFS file system. Sometimes it copies slow but this happens based on the file type and size. The speed is not a problem for me.

Too wide of body. Fair write speeds for the buck 18.6+ MB/s. Kingston is one of my go to brands for value and reliability. For the price these are good for bootable drive use and such. Buy better for moving files or backing up pics.

where is another 13 GB ? I thought the material is stronger,but also normal.in general,speed is also not very normal, a normal product But I did not understand where 13 GB ?!
