The Flash drive worked when I transferred my data. Half way into the transfer it stopped and the computer could no longer detect the flash drive. I am SHOCKED as I had already transferred 11Gb of data and I tried with several computers and all could detect the drive. What a blunder I've made as I trusted on the reliability of the product.My advice DO NOT BUY from this vendor who is selling sub standard product. Worse I bought 2 of them. My data is far more important than the price of this Kingston flash drive. Now I've lost it completely, sadly at my loss.

Came quickly. Looks good (if you like plane black -- I do). Works as expected on my CCL Computer (under both Windows 10 Pro and Ubuntu Linux MATE -- I dual boot, and both are encrypted).Build quality of product is OK but I have a different one that feels a lot more solid. If you were to have several of these Kingston DataTraveler100, you would need to find a way to label them. There is no provision for labelling them. You would have to create a label, and stick it on, or use some paint. They do have a number that could be a serial number but it is too small for easy identification.I "burnt" the MX-Linux 9.2 KDE iso onto one of these, and it boots up OK.I created a Windows 10 Pro "Rescue disk" with another one. That boots up too. However, they do not boot on two ... MoreCame quickly. Looks good (if you like plane black -- I do).

These Kingston DataTraveler100 are USB 3.1/3.0/2.0

The Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3 128GB Black USB Stick came to me within the promised timeframe, which was quick.As I was disappointed by most other brands, I have found out by experience ( I have ordered previously other brand names Flash cards, I was disappointed with ), that KINGSTON is the only brand name in flash cards, USB sticks, etc., which I can trust as regards to quality.This USB Stick impressed me with its elegant, compact & interesting design - for example I like that the end of the USB stick can be concealed and thus not be liable to damage when in pocket or a bag where it can be hard pressed or in any other way be damaged. Also I like that it is a 3.0 USB speed stick. Until now this Kingston 3.0 USB DataTraveler 100 G3 128GB Stick is performing ... MoreThe Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3 128GB Black USB Stick came to me within the promised timeframe, which was quick.As I was disappointed by most other brands, I have found out by experience ( I have ordered previously other brand names Flash cards, I was disappointed with ), that KINGSTON is the only brand name in flash cards, USB sticks, etc., which I can trust as regards to quality.This USB Stick impressed me with its elegant, compact & interesting design - for example I like that the end of the USB stick can be concealed and thus not be liable to damage when in pocket or a bag where it can be hard pressed or in any other way be damaged.

Kingston DT100G3/32GB USB 3.0 DataTraveler

Kingston DT100G3/32GB USB 3.0 DataTraveler Ample room to perform most Windows 11 tasks including creating a Recovery Drive (which I have needed more than once)! I like the way the USB connection is protected by pulling on the sheath. So used to this product that I went for these drives instead of the newer ones plus they are cheaper.

Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3

The 100 G3 series have good housings (slide-back caps), but the drives' performance leaves much to be desired. Other reviewers here have also had the same results. CrystalDiskMark numbers basically show this to be USB 2.5-ish performance. The problems is it should be USB 3.0 levels. It appears the price points on these drives is coming down due to manufacturers lowering SSD prices, which means it is more feasible to buy an inexpensive SATA-to-USB 3.0 adapter and use an SSD instead. Of course, the SSD's footprint is much larger than the flash drive, but performance/value for the SSD is now changing the landscape. This drive is OK for an occasionally-used Linux Live stick, or just for simple storage, but other manufacturers offerings (SanDisk, Centon, PNY) are better ... MoreThe 100 G3 series have good housings (slide-back caps), but the drives' performance leaves much to be desired.

Kinda recommend the drive, but DEFINITELY recommend the marketplace vendor, MemoryC. Fast order processing

Most certainly not worth the money and frustration in using.

Considering the very low price of this flash drive & the extra time & aggravation the computer user will have to put up with in using it, means that in the end this product becomes a very expensive product. Most computer users would rather do any other interesting thing than wait endlessly for a sloth of a storage device to accomplish it's requested task. For the life of me I cant comprehend why a reputable company such as Kingston would push this kind of worthless junk on the consumer. Much better off with Patriot Memory Supersonic Rage in the 32GB + capacities. Even the lowly 4GB USB 2.0 flash drives today have a disk activity LED. Something I consider to be a necessary feature. Kingston preferred to give us a laniard retention recess feature rather than a cue to ... MoreConsidering the very low price of this flash drive & the extra time & aggravation the computer user will have to put up with in using it, means that in the end this product becomes a very expensive product.

Even a 4GB CoreMicro USB 2.0 flash drive I purchased 15 years ago is imminently superior to this Kingston junk. The operative term in the case of this product is most certainly buyer beware.
