Review on Kingston DataTraveler 64GB 100 G3 USB 3.0 (DT100G3/64GB) - Black by Boyan Denkov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

After receiving feedback on the dt100g3/32GB, mysticism and shomanism start. My flash drive initially displayed a pitiful 6 megabytes per second for recording, similar to many other people who left unfavorable reviews. The drive was unstoppable at 6-7 megabytes per second despite my attempts to format it in various file systems (ext4, fat, ntfs), fill the volume with DVD pictures, and so on. I chose to test the drive using dd after formatting it in FAT with the command line argument if=/dev/zero of=/media/userok/TrashFlash/output. The drive showed speeds up to 65 mb/s on small volumes, and I reached count=4096 at a speed of 30 mb/s before formatting the drive in NTFS and uploading 26 gigabytes of DVD images to it. The copy speed was then roughly 22-25 megabytes per second. I'm not sure what akhalai mahalai did to this fantastic device, but it now satisfies us in every manner with its performance.

Pros
  • pricing, construction quality, and practical case concept without a cap
Cons
  • "slightly wider than the street", the case is too large, it obstructs nearby connectors, there is no LED indicator, and I really like it when anything blinks when it is in use
