Review on Profile Waterproof Pendrive Storage Computers Data Storage by Omar Thorndike

Boot issues

I often transfer large video files between two computers and was looking for a cheap, high-capacity flash drive. On the first day I transferred 90 GB of video without any problems. A few days later I tried to put some small (<5MB) videos on the disk. Windows gives an error that the hard drive is damaged. I went through the standard web troubleshooter, the best I have now is that the flash drive is accepting files on it but the files are not being read. I will continue to troubleshoot and try to recover the videos I still have on the drive and will update the review when the flash drive is operational again. Otherwise, I'll just stick with the 64GB stick I've been using for a few years. Update: Videos have been restored. I haven't had any issues with this device since this review as I transferred 50GB of video at once. However, I won't trust that for long-term file storage, which was my original reason for buying such a large USB drive.

Pros
  • Compatible with USB 3.0, USB 2.0, PCs, Laptops and MACs
Cons
  • Useless features
