Kingston Digital 32 GB USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Datatraveler Flash Drive DTIG3/32GBZ, White and Red

Works Great

It's worked flawlessly since I've had it, which has been some months at this point. It outlasted a PNY, which "crashed", lost the data, and is now unusable.I use this in place of a hard-disk "file drive" (I keep programs on one drive, and set files and temp directories and so on to divert to a second drive), albeit with frequent backups to two other USB hard-drives (yeah, I've had lots of data-loss problems in the past).Anyway, it's been fast and flawless as a Temporary and Files drive. I have another flash drive I use for Pagefile.sys, but want to eventually replace that one with another Kingston, since I've always used Kingston RAM and have always had good experiences with their products.

If you're looking for a great low cost usb drive. This is clearly a good solution to store some basic data, photos or documents. The product is pretty solid and has excellent protection with a password enabled encryption. When I received the product, it was in excellent condition and it worked instantly with Windows 7 and transfer rates of data between the device and the computer using USB 2.0 was definitely satisfactory. So a very impressive device all together. If you're looking for more memory, obviously you can upgrade to higher gigabytes with higher end Kingston jump drives, but for me, this did the job...

I have used Kingston for quite some time. I also prefer Lexar. However, I have never had any issues with Kingston. The last data stick I bought from them was a 4GB model. That was 5 years ago and it is still functioning properly. The load speed is good and the data is safe. I highly recommend them. I am a former MIS worker and have worked in a major hospital for their IT team. So, I am not reviewing this as someone who has only handled a handful of these and has a limited working knowledge of these types of technologies. I would recommend these items hands down every time with a small note of caution, all technology is susceptible to flaws. When I worked for the hospital we would deploy hundreds of computers at a time and invariably once in a while one was a dud. It happens and could with your data stick. If it foes, then simply contact the seller and see about a replacement. Take care of this item and you will have it around for a long time. It is a great deal at $20.

I bought this because the recommendation is "1 offsite backup", 1 "online" backup and 1 "onsite" backup; so I bought this little USB drive specifically for my 'offsite' backup. I am able to fit my key files that I need onto it; and for a great price. USB drives historically for me aren't the most reliable, but I like Kingston as a rule and decided this seller and this price was the best I was going to get. Shipping was really fast (faster than I expected) and in a well packaged envelope. Would buy again from this new seller.

What else can be said about a great product like this. Many satisfied customers like me can validate it here on Amazon. In fact, I have already bought 3 "Kingston" USB Flash Memory ( 2 of 16 GB and 1 of 32 GB ). This is a newer version of the Model: "DTIG2", it's the 3rd generation of this model, is the Model: "DTIG3", is very fast. Because each year the costs of a flash memory is lower and lower, today you can find many identical as this for less money, but there is something you should always ask yourself: It's really worth saving only about 5 or 10 dollars to buy a brand not well established or recognized for years?? I do not think it's worth saving a few dollars and risk a second quality product when for only about 5 or 10 dollars more you can have a high quality product as extraordinary as this. You should note that "Kingston" is the 2nd largest supplier of flash memory in the world ( the 1st largest supplier of flash memory in the world is "Sandisk" ) and both companies created one in 1987 and another in 1988, only manufacture products of Highest Quality, there's no doubt about that and the most important thing is, that both are 2 proudly American Companies.

Very hard to beat this Kingston memory stick. I have tried them all and most are still in my desk drawer broken. But this Kingston is the top dog in the pound. Lid stays on nice and tight, data transfer is always fast, easily loaded in any computer. I keep 2 of the 32 gig ones on me at all times. Now that I use Kingston I don't like the other brands. Great price and plenty of space.

I have been a long time Kingston fan and I still am. The product has been getting cheaper over time.I just bought my second one of these 16GB flash drive and popped it in. It worked fine except no LED light turns on. I thought my product was defective. I called Kingston Tech support and got a live operator which was really nice and she did not ask 100 questions before answering my simple one. I ask if my product was defective and she told me that they discontinued placing the LED lights in this model about a month ago.My old one works fine, just the key chain part broke and crazy glue only keeps it together for about a week and then it breaks again so I had to buy a new one. I really like the light as sometimes the flash drive would not connect right away but I knew it was working if the light was blinking.On a positive note, the price came down a lot. 16GB is the best deal as of yet.
