Review: UPDATE 21 MONTHS LATER: Best USB Flash Drive EVER - The drive packaging would prevent any potential damage during shipping yet was easy to access. The drive arrived on-time as promised. I was able to install an emergency copy of Windows 10 Pro and Office 2019 for when my PC SSD will fail. The install took about same time it took to install on the SSD! This new drive replaces an old drive that has become too small with all the updates to Windows! Incredible read and write speeds with windows and other apps installed for emergencies running just as fast as my SSD on the PC! The drive has not one time overheated as experienced with other drives. I use the drive once per month to produce an image of my PC dormant drive. I have successfully recovered the PC drive after at least two failures using this procedure with the old drive (along with using daily sync-toy backups of work/mail/etc. files)! Both the image and daily backups are contained on another external 3TB drive. The old drive never ran this fast. Highly recommend this drive. UPDATE: “My Kingston DataTraveler Max 512GB failed after ~21 months of Windows‑To‑Go use. The drive showed classic DT Max failure symptoms: slowing writes, disconnects, bad blocks, and thermal sensitivity. The final failure flag was that the drive would no longer boot — the controller could not deliver stable reads during OS startup. This model is extremely fast for reads but not designed for OS duty or sustained write workloads. Not recommended for Windows‑To‑Go or heavy write scenarios.”
Review: Excellent performance, excellent price - Your mileage may vary, but initial testing has gone very well in my niche application. I have a 2017 MacBook Pro (i5-7267U/8 GB RAM, four Thunderbolt 3 ports only) running Windows 10, and I am out of drive space, but I need to install some large software to take on the road with me. I was going to buy an external m.2 chassis, but I thought I would give this drive a try, instead, since it is about 1/3rd the price of what it would cost me to buy an external m.2 chassis, m.2 drive, and Thunderbolt 3 cable. It's also a small fraction of the size and weight. The software in question is already running on my 2022 desktop PC (Z690/i5-12600K/32 GB DDR5/Samsung 980PRO m.2 boot drive, Windows 11) from a 10 years old Kingston 240 GB SSDNow V300 SATA SSD that was pulled from my old Dell laptop. I ran CrystalDiskMark on the old drive in the new PC, because the software runs fine at that speed. The Kingston DataTraveler Max 256 GB is giving me about twice the speed in sequential read/write and about half the speed in random read/write. The SATA drive is NTFS, and the USB drive is exFAT, but that probably doesn't matter. As you can see from the CrystalDiskMark screenshot, I am pulling the advertised 1000 MB/s even from this relatively ancient and obsolete MacBook Pro, so it definitely works fine on a Thunderbolt 3 port using Apple's Boot Camp Windows drivers. I did not include a screenshot of the old drive's results, so as not to confuse people. This is probably going to be fine, but I am installing the software right now to see how well it actually runs on the MacBook Pro, running from the USB-C stick. It will take hours to install, since the developer specifies 140 GB of drive space, and my WiFi is only pulling about 100 Mb/s. If the software doesn't run very well, it will likely be more to do with the difference in memory, CPU, and GPU between the two machines, not the drive speed. Although Kingston is not the only brand of memory and storage I trust, I have relied on Kingston products for decades, and this product gives me every reason to extend that trust. The DDR5 RAM in my desktop PC is also Kingston. Update: After 3 weeks on the road, I can say this drive performed flawlessly in my application.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast and flimsy
*by L***R on July 28, 2025*

It's fast alright, and bit (one terabyte/1TB model). It's a VERY LONG USB drive though, and the same width and height as a USB-A drive. It puts a lot of leverage on that little USB-C plug, so if you bump it it feels like it'll bend or break. The plastic is cheap feeling and the fit around the internal board isn't very tight so it flops around a bit. Overall feels WAY cheaper than it is. I probably wouldn't ever buy this brand again, because I want things to last when I spend good money on them. This thing is not long for the world, especially if you have a thin laptop and it spends a lot of time millimeters from the surface of your desk... one wring set-down or pick-up and it feels like it'll be toast.
