very impressive.......2007-12-09
My husband is very pleased with this product because he does geneology for his church and has thousands of names and it holds it all.
Handy Item.......2007-12-09
The Lexar 4 GB Jump Drive is very handy to use full of plenty of space for those of us who carry lots of data. The light is a good addition although the Lexar is so quick you can almost miss it light up when transferring data. The connection, however, is not always good the first try. You may have to reseat it. All in all I am extremely happy with it.
Great product.......2007-10-24
This is a good product both in size and performance.
The only problem is that the PowerToGo software that comes preinstalled is not quite "Vista Ready" yet. However, the Lexar and Ceedo web sites have upgrades that can fix that. I've been using it now for over a month and have not had any problems with it.
4GB is a perfect size for maintaining all my work available for use on multiple computers. I'd definitely recommend this product.
Good performer.......2007-07-18
The 4 GB jump drive is a terrific assistance for those who want to be able to store files in a portable medium.
To this point, the unit fits nicely into its "holder"; I lost the end to my 256 MB Lexar jump drive--most annoying. This system, to this point, seems to work better.
The capacity of the jump drive is a major positive factor. Once one begins to store files that take up space, smaller capacity jump drives can get overwhelmed. 4 GB is more than enough space for my uses.
It takes longer to transfer files than for my old 256 MB Lexar jump drive. On the other hand, that's a small price to pay for the much larger space available.
All in all, I'm a satisfied customer.
Fast USB Flash Drive.......2007-07-16
There are lots of USB flash drives on the market and many brands market multiple models in multiple sizes. Performance differences can be huge (factor of 10) between brands and between different models within one brand and yet most companies don't publish performance information except possibly for their highest end model. This makes for a very confusing and frustrating market for users. With smaller drives performance is less of an issue, but if you're shopping for a 4 GB drive and really plan to use that space, performance is key. Imagine the difference between 3 minutes and 30 minutes for a transfer. Lexar Jumpdrive Lightning drives actually improve the performance of their larger drives. The performance listed on Amazon is actually the performance for the smaller 2 GB drive; the 4 GB drive is rated at 30MB/s read and 21MB/s write. This makes it one of the fastest drives available. Though performance can depend on the type of test you run, in very limited testing for me, it lived up to its performance claim.
I haven't used the included software, so can't comment on that.
A blue LED on the drive is a nice touch, but it ends up on the down side of the drive in my 3 yr old Dell mini tower and so doesn't show.
The end cap is potential losable, but so far seems to stick on well enough.
The drive may be a little on the thick side and could potentially block usage of an adjacent USB port depending on the connector to the adjacent port, but so far this hasn't been a problem for me.
Overall a great product for my usage.

Cap is Location of Keyring.......2007-12-13
I wish I had looked a little closer at the picture for the Jumpdrive Secure II Plus before I bought it. I selected this version because I needed the security. However, the keyring hole is in the cap, which is held on by a simple pressure-fit connection. This means that the entire device can easily get lost, and all your data with it.

Customer Reviews:
Clean, fast and sexy.......2007-09-23
I use this product on both my MacBook Pro with OS X and an HP laptop and it works well for transporting files between operating systems or simply housing files that only reside on the flash drive but are used from both computers - home and office. At under fifty bucks this is a very worthwhile investment. 2 Gigs is sufficient for most folks.
Good buy and great software.......2007-07-29
This drive performs well and looks great. The casing gives it a sense of durability. The encryption and shredding software work well. Plenty of room on the drive and easy to set up. Sometimes the software can be quirky, but they were minor performance gltches when learning to use the vaults etc...
So far... so good!.......2007-07-13
I was kinda surprised to see very bad rating about the external housing! I have been using this for over a month, and didn't see any problem. I have this attached to my car keys too. My only complaint would be the size (and hence the 4 stars)... it is big compared to my mighty sandisk micro (which i lost.. unfortunately), and this may be 'coz of the two layered case.
Bottom line ... if you can get this for around 40 bucks... it's definitely worth buying.
Cheaply made.......2007-07-05
It looks slick but is not made to last. After a week, the little LED in the center detached and would float around inside the housing. After a month or so, the cap became loose and eventually fell off. If you find it, please let me know. A few months after that while trying to remove it from my computer, the housing came off, but the chipset and board stayed attached in my computer. I figured it really wanted to be there.
Avoid it.
excellent.......2007-05-19
Very good product. It's very serious and just what i want in prescence. The memory comes with a software or something like that that use about 80Mb so you don't have de 2 Gb completly but almost. Anyway I'm pleased with this memory for the appearencce, look and the price.

Works as advertised.......2007-11-21
I like the size and it works like any other usb flash drive I have owned. Mine came in black, which I prefer over the red shown in the picture.
Not really 2G.......2007-09-26
I purchased a 2G Lexar Firefly to download music to use in the USB port on my car stereo. It will only let me download to 450 MG. A CD holds more than that.
Very Satisfied.......2007-08-23
The item is very compact. Seats firmly into its' cover and performs well with transfer speeds tests. I've very happy with the purchase and was pleased with the amount of space I was able to get for the price.
Good size, good performance.......2007-07-10
This flash drive is very small, cute and its performance is more than acceptable.
I have USB 2.0 ports in my laptop, and it takes about 3 minutes to write 2 GB into the flash drive. The read time is a little bit faster.
Since I don't care about having the fastest flash drive on Earth, I'm really happy with this product. You just have to be careful not to loose it because of its size.
So Sloooooooow.......2007-06-25
I really can't begin to describe how slow the transfer rate of the Lexar firefly is. The transfer rate makes it nearly unusable for anything but a few small files. It can take literally HOURS to transfer 500 MB if it is a bunch of small files you are transferring. It is a little bit faster with fewer larger files. However, I recommend looking for something else. I am very disappointed with my purchase.

Very good choise.......2007-11-17
This jumpdrive it's very fast and you can use it for backing up your documents or pictures, it's very small and you can have it with you all the time, excelent choise for mobility and taking with you some big files.
great thumb drive.......2007-09-24
The size and capacity of this drive are great. I bought it to replace a 5 GB Sony Microvault pro that I had outgrown. It has more than enough space to sync the active files from my home and work computers each day, and fits in a pocket or on a keychain. The included case/protector fits snugly and has not loosened in 2 months of use. Highly recommended for ultra-compact, high-capacity data moving.

Save your money.......2007-11-29
I bought this for my critical financial files and some other absolutely necessary data. It lasted about six months if that. I formatted it and tried to get it back in shape. Nothing worked.
I'm going to go back to Kingston DataTraveler Elite 4gb. I have a Kingston that has outlived every other flash drive I've had and it's still going strong. Just not enough storage. They cost more. But you get more. Long run, you can spend lots of money on flash drives if you have to buy them every six months or a year. I'd rather spend more upfront and have something I can depend on.
I sure don't recommend this drive.

More "gadgety" than good.......2007-05-12
If you want people to be amazed, astonished, and a bit jealous of your flash drive, this is the one for you.
Most can't believe that this (literally) small-finger sized drive holds 4GB.
However, for how gadgety it is, it lacks in performance.
First of all, it is not 4GB. It is 3.77GB. That's a lot of memory missing. 3.5GB would be a more correct listing. Secondly, it's slow. Very slow. Even pulling up a notepad file takes much longer than it should.
This flash drive was one of the ones affected by Lexar's recall. Not that this particular one was, but the model in general was for overheating issues. The Firefly is still a victim of overheating, but not as badly as people who push the issue would have you think.
If you want a "wow" drive and not a "work" drive, this is the one for you. That blinking blue light could win anyone over immediately. Just don't expect stellar performance.
Great data storage device.......2007-02-04
Love it. I store all my class teaching materials with illustrations, and after using two 1 gig Lexar mass storage devices and filling most of the available space, this is pure luxury. I look forward to an 8 gig and ultimately a 16 gig. Lexar is a very reliable company, and their products are well worth the extra cost. The only drawback to the 4 gig is that it seems just a little slower than my 1 gigs. Minor point, though.
Marketing Pinheads triumph.......2006-12-22
I got this as a gift from a friend who should know better, but I could easily have been suckered by the weasel words the marketing department plastered on the package.
The package says "Hi Speed" USB but I had 670 MB on a 1 GB Cruzer Mini that I wanted to transfer to the new Lexar JumpDrive FireFly. The upload to my laptop went smoothly - no more than 10 minutes. Then I took out the Cruzer and inserted the FireFly in the same USB port and copied the directory I had just uploaded to the FireFly via a simple "paste". It took over an hour (I don't know exactly how long since I had to leave before it finished).
When I got back, I decided to do a test copy of the data back to the Cruzer. The same data only took 10 minutes to download back to my 1 GB Cruzer.
It seems clear that "Hi Speed" for Lexar means USB 1.0 (about 12 Mbps) and not USB 2.0 (about 480 Mbps).
I'm sure the marketing department said "Why confuse the poor stupid consumers with technichal specs.?"
I searched their website to see if there was more information but the suits seem to have veto power over the web designers as well.
If speed is important to you (and with a 4 GB drive it is logical to assume that you are going to have some large files to move) then steer clear of this product. 1 GB of data will take you on the order of an hour or more to move.
Of course if speed is not important or if you only have 1.0 USB ports on your machine then the product is fine. It works as well as any other flash drive device on the market.
My main complaint is that without testing, it is hard to know that this is only a 1.0 device.

A great carrying case.......2007-05-18
I have 6 USB Flash drives that I carry around in my backpack in one of the pockets, the problem is before I leave a place I have to make sure I got all of my drives packed away. With this it is easier to find the exact drive that I need and it keeps it nice and organized. Also when I don't want to drag around my backpack but I need all of my flash drives it's convenient to just grab this case and not worry about losing one of the drives out of my pocket.

Firefly 4gb.......2007-10-17

Very slow.......2007-06-12
This would be a great product if it weren't extremely slow. If speed is a factor, buy another brand.
small, cheap, slow.......2007-06-02
This is a very compact USB flash drive, with good capacity, and it is cheap. The plastic cap provides good protection. The main drawback is that this is a really really slow drive. It takes over an hour to copy 500MB onto it (from a hard drive, under Win XP). I can recommend this drive only for rarely-accessed archives, or if your time has no value.
Love it.......2007-03-08
I need to back up all my class lectures, including illustrations, and this 4GB Firefly is just what I needed. It is a little slow, but that does not worry me too much. Its design is such that the small unit is separable from the cover, and so it plugs securely into my labtop USB without having a key ring dangling from it.
Lexar are a very reliable company, and I also have two of their 1GB mass storage devices. Very satisfied with them as well.
