Long term test - 3 years use

I bought this flash drive over 3 years ago. This is a review of long-term use: initially this USB stick was good, but after the first year of rather infrequent use it started to slow down. Now, after more than three years of use, this drive has become unbearably slow when writing (reading is slow but reasonable). This drive was used many times when I needed to move files from my Android phone/device to the drive. It works for this purpose but is very slow when moving files to disk. I've…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Protection

Lasted less than 5 years with little use

Realized that I have owned this USB stick for almost 5 years. Black Friday 2014 I got this. So I don't know the failure rate of USB sticks, but I have several from back then and even older ones (e.g. less than 1GB) that still work. I find it a little odd that he's dying now. It connects to the PC/Laptop and I can watch the video from the disc and all of a sudden it disconnects. It turns off after about 10-15 minutes of inactivity. None of my current drives do this. It doesn't seem to care what…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Cheap and cute. The hat is missing.

I bought the 4GB version of this flash drive. THE GOOD: -It's VERY compact - only tiny. I love it. -Unique clean modern look -Cheap BAD: -No cap. Most flash drives come with a cover or can be retracted for protection. I feel like I can't just toss this in my bag, I should be more careful with it (and reset it more often). Earlier versions of Sony MicroVault drives had a small silicone sleeve. I wish they had included that in this one. - Not easy to attach to keychain. There is a rectangular…

The slowest drive I have.

The form factor is nice and I like that it has a highly visible activity indicator. But boy are you gonna look at that light for quite a while! This thing is SLOW, possibly the slowest USB drive I've ever had. Even some of my oldest flash drives perform this function. I bought it to be able to use a number of portable apps while still having enough storage space, but that's just not possible with this drive. It takes forever to launch the platform and trying to surf with Mozilla Firefox…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Difficult to remember but it was
