Review on Imphomius 64GB Metal exFAT USB 2.0 Flash Drive - Waterproof, Dustproof, & Keychain - Gold by Joe Patterson

Not fast, but beautiful

Imphomius 32GB Metal USB 2.0 Flash Drive with Key Fob Waterproof and dustproof fat32 Memory Stick 32GB JumpDrive for storage and backup Gold Economically packaged in white bubble wrap with manufacturer's sticker on the outside. Something of note on the packaging that I haven't seen recently, the label has an email address in case you need to contact the manufacturer. Seeing this increases my Quality Score without even touching the device as most manufacturers seem to make it very difficult to find their contact information if you need more information or something goes wrong. On the case of a gold metallic flash drive on the right side is printed the manufacturer's logo and its capacity is 32 GB. It's a small thing, but many manufacturers don't bother labeling their drives. I think it's easier to know what capacity it is if I pull a spare drive out of my desk drawer without plugging it in and trawl through a few drives to find the one I'm looking for. I connect the plate to the laptop. , it will be recognized immediately and the window will open. When checking the properties of the drive, a 32GB drive shows 29.2GB of available capacity. This is quite normal for a flash drive or almost any storage device, formatting takes up some amount of space. The drive has a native Fat 32 file system. I reformatted the drive to NTFS as it is more compatible with more of my devices. I think it's a good idea to format any flash drive before using it, as you never know what bits of software may have been left on it by someone who touched it before you. The hard drive formatted without any problems, and transferring files for the test file seemed to move at a very slow speed. This is still a 2.0 drive, but even with that in mind, the data transfer speed seemed very slow to me. What's the point of this flash drive? It's a basic, if not pretty, flash drive that works well as a primary storage device.

Pros
  • Self-confident
Cons
  • Unfashionable
