Sorry that I cannot follow the rules, because this is the result i tested b4 n the pendrive belongs to my friend.
But this is the best result compare to all the test above. Pendrive 256MB 20X 2MB Files Test Read Performance : 519 operation(s)/min (17715 kB/sec, 100x) Write Performance : 227 operation(s)/min (7748 kB/sec, 44x) Delete Performance : 1127 operation(s)/min File Fragments : 1.0 Combined Index : 390 operation(s)/min Better than Kingston Data Traveller II. Just for ur reference. |

yaosiang,
u will get better result if u use others Card Reader, pls note even though most of the reader rated as USB 2.0, but it's not really up to 480Mbit/s or 60MB/s, normally is about less then 10MB/s. some are about 4.5MB/s, 6MB/s, 8MB/s, 9MB/s. i read some forums from taiwan, the fatest card reader currently only about 20MB/s, but as far as i know it's not available at local yet. |

Thanks For Telling Me That.. u will get better result if u use others Card Reader, pls note even though most of the reader rated as USB 2.0, but it's not really up to 480Mbit/s or 60MB/s, normally is about less then 10MB/s. some are about 4.5MB/s, 6MB/s, 8MB/s, 9MB/s. i read some forums from taiwan, the fatest card reader currently only about 20MB/s, but as far as i know it's not available at local yet. |

When running the test did your thumb drive LED flashing? AFAIK the fastest thumb drive nowadays can go 25MB/s. It's impossible that a USB 1.1 can get 31MB/s

QUOTE(sam1907 @ Sep 12 2005, 12:27 PM) hey guys .. js wanna ask you : OK, this tip is for WinXP. Could also apply to Win2K, but I don't think can for WinME/9x.whether when we wanna remove the pendrive/thumbdrives.. do we need to go to windows n click the "safely remove hardware" icon for the USB ? as in before we unplugged the drives ? js wondering ... coz some ppl told me MUST to prevent damage.. then some said dun need as in it's plug n play ? so a bit confused here.. tx Win XP will "normally" NOT enable write caching for flashdrives; if write caching is on, this is why you need to use the Safely Remove H/W icon. The Safely Remove H/W icon tells Windows to flush the cache and commit (i.e. write) everything to the flashdrive so the user can remove it. You can tell Windows whether or not to use the write cache: Plug in your drive and start Windows Explorer. Go to My Computer, then right-click on the thumbdrive > Properties > Hardware tab > double-click on yr thumbdrive > Policies tab. The options there are slef-explanatory... |

i think this benchmark will give only for some file size. i suggest running System File Benchmark of Sandra? That bench can tell the truth of write and read speed also how fast it manage data.

Dell 128MB USB dunno 1.1 or 2.0, not stated on the unit. Looking at performance I'll think it's a 2.0.
Interesting thing is, on the cap/cover is the word "M-Systems" - which most of you doing benches will be familiar with, as they have two units in Sandra's list. Sorry for the crappy pic tho', taken with my co-worker's Nokia 6260.  Pretty good write (faster than my Jetflash!), slow read.   This post has been edited by T0|\|`/: Dec 8 2005, 12:27 PM |

Does anyone know if there is a difference in formatting these thumb drives as FAT or FAT32? will performance increase.

Got a problem with my thumb drive (or my pc). Perhaps can discuss here, when i plug in my thumbdrive, the screen show:
L:\(folder name) cannot be located... (i realised mostly the image files). When i click -ok-, then the window with that mentioned files will pop out. It happened at my pc only, not others. Anyone experience this?? thanks. |

HELP... I want to buy a 2GB thumbdrive but don't have any ideas how much does one cost.
On the other hand, thought of buying an MP4 player 'coz it'll also serve as a thumbdrive & it can play videos as well. Any suggestions as well as the brand that I should buy? I'm a multimedia person, use for saving my animation projects. Should I buy a thumbdrive or just buy the MP4 player? |

At lowyat i can only find czone selling this thumbdrive, but sadly no more stock for 1gb. Do you guys know where else i can find this thumbdrive? Maybe i missed out a shop... |

Does anyone have any performance figures for the Crucial Gizmo! Overdrive 1GB USB Flash drive?
They are claiming transfer rates of 13MB/s for Write and 25MB/s for Read. These are achievable using a Dual-Channel controller. It would be interesting to see real figures for this drive. |

sorry to burst your bubble but that kingston is a fake. the part number on the packing isn't even kingston's. authenthic kingston part number is DTI/*GB or DTI/256. one more thing kingston doesn't have a 8GB model yet.
how do i know? i sell kingston for a living. so cheers |

But the fact is you don't get 8gb for RM100. It's a fake, the real size once you repartition it might only be 1gb or even lower. And data you write into it will take a really long time and when you try reading data from the drive, corruption occurs, who would want it then??

Hi just to follow up on the Kingston 8GB DataTraveller, here is an official response from Kingston,
CODE So far Kingston never produce any model of DataTraveler flash drive in 8GB capacity. Detail please see below: http://www.kingston.com/flash/datatraveler_home.asp The photo attached on the forum was fake. The outside packaging shown it was KUSB/8G (we only have upto 256MB for this series model) but the casing design was DTI/xxx version. Hereby is the verification website, every data traveller outside packaging will have their own SN # and AC (or LK) number for the verification purpose. Detail pls see below: http://www.kingston.com/asia/verify/default.asp We do have customer wrote to us on the problem they encounterred after using 8G fake pen drive, hereby is a few common symptom found: -Windows XP recognises KUSBDTI/8gb Data Traveller USB Flas Drive but will not open. -I have just bought a 8 Gb Kingston flash Memory.It has worked fine but it has now a very strange behaviour. Whenever I plug in the device it says "insert disk in the player" -Two weeks ago I bought usb flash drive of 8 giga in china.Every thing was ok I saved picture on it and use it,but suddenly all the data "gone" and when I double click on it it's written"please insert a disk" -I purchase 4 memory flash in China, non of them works. KUSBDTI/8GB SN:Tco7773-00156959 LK:A510M1D-5380562U - How are you?my name is amr elkilany?,i am living in cairo,?egypt. i have a problem concerning a kingston flash memory,data travler 8GB,i have got more than 35 kingston flash memory from dubai they are all 8gb,and they are all stop working after only one use.They are all read 0 bytes Purchase fake part will have risk on the functionality and there will not be any way to get warranty, all these should take into consideration. In checking the capacity, we would suggest you reformat the pendrive fast and right click to the pen drive disk drive, to check the property, and look for the capacity. Again, thanks for your valuable information. Thanks & Regards, LC Chan Customer Service Kingston Technology Far East Co. Toll free: 0800-666-200 (TW Only) DID: 03-5666858 Fax: 03-5666977 So in future if anyone wants to verify if their Kingston memory product is genuine or not, they can check at http://www.kingston.com/asia/verify/default.asp |

This maybe mentioned before, but you guy do know that pretty much all flash based storage (usb/memory) are based on NAND technology that has a limited write times of 100,000 (low end) to 1 million. Most likely other components will fail before the NAND memory, but to take into consideration of programs or OS that frequently write and rewrite to usb/flash memory. Use for mainly back up/file transfer...
Of course u could claim the lifetime warranty and ... yadah... yadah... yadah |

Ladies and gentlemen...
The first 2GB pen drive tested here on LYN!! Not sure if it's the 1st, but it sure sounds better like that cos that's about the only good thing I can say about it Emtec 2GB USB2.0 Flash Drive   For this speed, and the fact that it's so fat you can't plug it into the second USB port while the first one is occupied, it gets a thumbs down from me. |

QUOTE(glo @ Jun 30 2006, 01:45 AM) almost 1 year plus, gonna send it for rma soon...but considering the prices for 1gb thumbdrives now, might as well get a spare omg how did u use yr DT2? Pendrives are supposed to be solid-state, normal reading/writing wouldn't make 'em fail in decades, I think.Did you throw it about or something? Hehe my Transcend still looks ok, not many scratches or shit like that. That's if you can actually see the freaking unit in the pic below, with the crappy camera in my hp.  |

AFAIK, giant and carefour only provide few months (I think 1 month) warranty claim. After that need to claim from distributor. Who know maybe they already change this ruling

that is just plain stupid. we're talking about pendrives not 2.5" hdds. you can buy a plain notebook for the price of the latest axim but you wont buy the notebook if you are not as stupid as to disregard your need
far too often people are comparing something of the same price but of different value |

it does not matter, understand:? you dont see people recommending a dell 700m when someone is looking for a portable pda phone!!!
we are all talking about a thumdrive/flash memory, not something that will crack open the moment it is dropped onto the floor regardless of its "sarotech casing which can protect it very well mar" and not to mention the slow access rate of a harddrive compared to a flashdrive |
