Transcend 32GB JetFlash 790 USB 3.1 Flash Drive (TS32GJF790K),Black

This is my 2nd Transcend flash drive, and my 4th storage device from Transcend overall. Not one of their products has ever had an issue or error for me, even after years of abuse, so I would say that I definitely trust their products. So let me get into the pros/cons of this particular drive: PROS: -Massive storage capacity! It blows me away that 128gb can fit on a flash drive these days -Speed: Although I havent done an official speed test, the USB 3.0 seems to transfer large (10gb+) files very fast -Physical size is very small. I was pleasantly surprised at how tiny this thing is, as it looked a bit larger in the stock photos. Its very thin, and barely longer than a standard house key. -Design: This may be more of a personal opinion, but I find the physical appearance to be very aesthetically pleasing, thin, and sleek. CONS: -Lightweight plastic construction. Although Ive never had a Transcend drive break on me, I do think this one just feels cheaper. -The slider is a little loose. Its not bad, but I somehow wish that there was a more definitive click when you slide the USB end out or in. It simply should be sturdier. -Bright LED light. This could be a pro or con, depending on your preferences, but the blue LED indicator is quite bright. I like it, but when the lights are off and Im watching a movie it can be a bit distracting. CONCLUSION: Although it has a few drawbacks, I think this drive is the best flash drive money can buy right now. At its current price, its about the same money-wise as its competitors, but it looks a million times better. As long as the plastic material of which its made holds up overtime, this review will remain a 5/5. Highly recommended!

Great drive with speed of about 10 MB/s on a 2.0 port. This drive does not run hot. Great price too.. Right now the 32GB black costs about $13 and the white is about $10. Also bought a white one, and its 2.0 write speed is also very good. Large files transfer at about 10MB/s. Batches of smaller files naturally get written at about 8MB/s. Light behind the blue slide is very visible, and is always on. With the white case, blue glow fills the bottom of the drive. I bought another black drive. It is different: doesnt say USB 3.1 on the case and there is no light. Performance is the same I guess. I have many drives, so I like to buy different designs from many highly rated manufacturers so all my drives look different. Drives from this brand have never failed me. -Chris

My computer shows a 117 GB capacity for this 128 GB storage device. Thats a big chunk to be doing without. The speed of writing was nothing like what was described for a USB 3.0 device. Example: writing a 3.7 GB folder from my hard drive to the Transcend 128 GB JetFlash 790 (using one of my Dell desktops USB 3.0 ports). The speed wavered wildly. At 35% completion the slow transfer simply ground to a halt for 5 minutes showing a completion estimate of 45 minutes. Finally it started up again and finished at just shy of 11 minutes. I then deleted the folder and repeated the test, which took just over 4 minutes. I deleted the folder again and repeated the process on my HP Spectra x360 laptop. It took 5 minutes, 20 seconds with speeds wavering wildly from 0 bytes/s to 42 MB/s. The practical upshot of this is that I never know how long of a wait I am letting myself in for.

So far so good. I have used this drive to transfer some movies. I am a college student and I rely heavily on flash drives to transfer data to and from school. I am not a gadget expert and I do not pay much attention to other drive speeds. For every day tasks, this drive will be awesome. The build quality is the exact same as a similar sandisk cruizer that I have. Its almost identical to that one as far as case design goes. Great product!

At stores they have this same product for a lot more, its great to find the same on Amazon for a great price.

This flash drive is great and for the price I paid for the capacity. I basically can carry around a few thousand songs and bunch of full HD movies in my pocket! Its amazing how much flash drives have advanced over the years. I used Black magic speed test to test the speeds. It clocked the read speed at around 120MB/s and the write at 80MB/s. To be honest it is pretty slower compared to my other drives but I will take that trade off because of the capacity.

I purchased this flash drive because I needed something to store my work and projects on for college. I tested the flash drive to make sure I was paying for a counterfeit, since it cost me less than 20 bucks for a lot of memory. The flash drive is authentic, providing over 30GB of storage. The drive has an average write speed of 10.5MB/s and a read speed of 31.9MB/s, which makes it nice and fast. The blue light on the drive lets me know that its connected to my computer, and flashes as I add or remove files to and from the device. Tis is great because it lets me know if it has finished transferring my data. Overall, this flash drive is a great deal given the price and memory. It reads/writes data at a fast pace for me and I wont have to get a new one for quite some time thanks to the space on it.

I needed a drive with a lot of data for GIS that wasnt too expensive, and this is almost perfect. If I could give 4.5 I would. Pros: -inexpensive -fast -slider easy to slide back and forth -has a light to show its active -has key ring opening Cons: -drive opening not covered -slider does not click when you slide it out, so sometimes it wants to slide back closed

I am a fan of Transcend brand USB Flash Drives. As a matter of fact, every flash drive that I own is Transcend. I have never had one fail on me yet and I use all of them all the time. I put music on them for the car and movies to watch. I format and reload. Never have an issue. I like that they are retractable so I can put them in my bag with my laptop and dont have to worry about them getting broken. Great brand; I am very satisfied and will be purchasing more.

Stay away from this brand. Cheaply made and dies after a week or two. Flimsy connector becomes looser w use. Buy PNY. Those last.
