Review on Transcend 64GB JetFlash 790 USB 3.0 πŸ” Flash Drive: Efficient Data Storage and Fast Transfer Speeds by Wiktor Wiktor ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Could not be worse! Waste of money.

Unfortunately, there is a tendency to reduce the cost of goods at all costs. The manufacturer misled the buyer - the same product codes, but the old and new Transcend JetFlash 790 flash drives are completely different in characteristics.

Pros
  • The Transcend JetFlash 790 32Gb flash drive is relatively cheap. There is no lid, which is often lost. The retractable mechanism is normally fixed in a new copy, in an old one bought a couple of years ago it breaks off the latch. That's all.
Cons
  • The latch of this flash drive is somehow unconvincing, the inner part dangles, is fixed by a barely noticeable pressure. Other Transcend models have better latches. I compared the new version of the flash drive and the old one, bought a few years ago. - The write speed in the USB3 port jumps all the time in a strange way, slows down to 0, does not rise above 21MB / s. Declared 25Mb / s did not see. Returned one of the 3 purchased under warranty. In the old version of the flash drive, the speed is uniform and noticeably higher. - The new version does not have a power and activity LED indicator. - The new one is glued crooked and has a gap in one place. - The amount of memory in the new one is almost 1 GB less than in the old one. - Warranty for the new limited 5 years, the old limited for life. - The new one does not have read and write characteristics. - The model code for these two flash drives is the same, but the characteristics differ significantly. There is no way to understand everything before buying.

The construction is flimsy. I took it as a backup storage for infrequent use. Hope it does its job.
