Some bad sectors appeared on the hard disk about 6-8 months after purchase. I didn't think I used it excessively or more than normal 'wear and tear'. Ah, then it caused a real panic. Now I use it minimally, and honestly I don't have any issues with it anymore, but I rarely do anything with it. Maybe I'm just crazy, but it also seems to be slower than some of my other flash drives, maybe due to the compact size of the device? But ask yourself, do you really need 32 gigabytes to be that small? Can you get by with one big drive, or do you really need those 32 gigabytes to be so portable? Because there are some really great and reliable flash drives out there.
