Decent flash drive but with bad case design.......2007-12-28
The PNY 1GB is probably worth the current discounted price. I've previously bought 512MB and 1GB PNY flash drives.
Probably you'll find this drive to be durable, as fast as most, and nice looking.
Unfortunately, for PNY, they skimped on design of the case and its cap. It won't take long for the case to begin sliding off the electonics housing. Not a really big deal since nothing is exposed, but it's an unecessary inconvenience which can be remedied by placing some adhesive on the electronic component and sliding it back onto the sleeve. The cap, however, is another story. It's loose fitting and does not snap on; you know, that satisfying yet subtle "click" that tells you it's secure. Not a big deal if you don't plan to put this in your pocket or purse, but PNY could have avoided this.
For my money, I'd buy a Kingston 1GB Data Traveler II. It's fast, well priced, attractive also, and has none of the case design issues mentioned.
PNY is Just Fine.......2007-12-22
I purchased the PNY Attache 1G flash drive almost a year ago and my first impression was that it was clunky, large. As I used it I have come to appreciate it for speed, reliability and simple design. It has performed flawlessly. Good unit!!!
Great flash drive, rugged as all get-out.......2007-12-10
I bought one of these flash drives last year. It has reliably held my various bits of data without issue the entire time.
What's more, I've put the drive through the clothes washer AND drier, not once, but TWICE. Though battered, the drive still functions perfectly.
Amazing!
wast of money.......2007-11-03
This attache usb 2.0 flash drive from PNY technologies was bought to transfer documents to another computer. When I plug it in I am asked for a driver. This does not come with one. I went to PNY web site only to find out they do not guarantee it will work with windows 98 SE. do not was your time by calling PNY they will not call back or return an e- mail. I have had the flash drive for 3 weeks and it still will not work. What a waste

great product.......2007-11-13
This a great product, very fast and easy to setup encrypted partition, but ... it is very delicate.
Great Buy.......2007-10-22
I like it because it has a rubber outside and water proof it ws a great buy and I might buy another one
broke within 2 weeks.......2007-10-16
It lasted two weeks. The rubber housing opened a little when squeezed near the usb plug and along its width (blue thing to blue thing). A little dirt or moisture got in. The computer no longer recognized what kind of USB device was being plugged in. I tested other USB devices, including a different flash memory, and they all worked fine.
I cut the rubberized covering off and blew the circuit board clean. The computer then recognized that the device is (was) a usb flash memory. I promptly backed up my data. I'm back to my 2Gb sandisk that has lasted about 2 years.
FAST and rugged.......2007-09-24
This is one of the fastest flash drives available on the market. It does depend on whether or not your computer has a USB 2.0 port, of course, but if it does then no problem. Quick to install on any machine (also MACs) and needs no drivers, even if a mini-CD is supplied.
The best feature has to be the rubber encasing. I had the 512Mb version for six months before losing it. I tend to keep USB drives in my pocket, so inevitably they end up in the washing machine sometimes. The Voyager took at least FIVE trips through both washer and dryer, and it kept working flawlessly nonetheless. And this was without the cap! (which, I can guarantee you, you'll lose within a week).
So overall a performing, durable, and relatively cheap purchase.
Expensive, not fast at all..........2007-09-10
I regret buying that USB stick, not fast at all and expensive compared to other flash drives. Also cap is loose and very easy to loose it.

Better than the others I've been using.......2007-12-28
Have used PNY, Lexar and Iomega flash drives. Bought this Kingston based on reviews here of the Kingston Data Traveler and the Data Traveler II.
I like this drive; does everything it's supposed to, doesn't come with annoying software, and has a snug-fitting cap. You'd appreciate the last feature, especially if you bought a 1GB PNY. Its cap is particularly loose fitting.
Used to be, with XP SP1, these flash drives needed to be formatted with NTFS file system and also (in Device Manager) needed its Policies set to "Optimize for Performance", or they would run badly.
Quite to my surprise this doesn't really seem to matter with XP SP2, which I now use. I formatted it NTFS anyway but leave its Policies set to Optimize for Quick Removal (the default) and don't seem to be paying a penalty.
Would recommend this DT II over the plain Kingston Data Traveler. It's worth the extra $4 or so for its speed.
Will be buying additional Kingston IIs as the need arises.
Worked well for two months and then completely failed.......2007-09-24
I purchased this USB drive due to the low cost and due to the Kingston name. I used the drive to transfer data between computers and did so about once a day. The drive worked well at first, but after only two months of use, the USB drive stopped working. Fortunately, I had not deleted the data after I transferred it to a drive so nothing was lost, but losing data was certainly a risk.
I would hesitate to purchase another Kingston drive because my experience is that they are unreliable. At the end of the day, you get what you pay for. I plan to spend more money on another brand in the future because it is worth the extra expense to ensure that my data is safe.
Great Buy.......2007-08-12
This is not only cheap, but it holds a lot of stuff! I can't believe how fast I can transfer data on and off of this flash drive. But, what do you expect, it's a Kingston.
I LOVE my Kingston Data Traveler II!.......2007-07-22
I am real happy I bought this. It works great just like promised. I have been carrying this around on my key ring for a long time now and it is working great. The cap is nice and tight, so I don't have to worry about it getting lost. I'm real rough with my keys sometimes, but the Kingston doesn't give me any troubles. Very reliable, nice looking, sturdy, great price, ... etc.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.......2007-06-23
I recieved my item today and I am very pleased with it although it was sent through the mail and I was charged six dollars for the shipping. I also noticed that in the description it says it weighs 2 lbs. which is an error I hope and doesn't reflect why I paid so much for shipping. Other than that overall I am pleased with the product.

Don't plan on putting it on a keychain.......2007-09-28
I got one of these and was very happy at first. After about 3 days, I was leaving work and saw it sitting on the ground in front of my car. The plastic loop at the end, where you would hook it onto a keyring, broke in half. I contacted the manufacturer, and they did replace it for me, but told me that is a LANYARD hook, this SHOULD NOT be carried around on a keychain or keyring. The second one they sent me, the cap won't stay on, and within a week, the same loop broke. If you ask me, there isn't much value to a USB Flash drive that isn't designed well to be carried around with you (I mean c'mon, who wears a lanyard?). This sits in my laptop bag, only to be missing every time I go look for it.
I was looking for this for three days to transfer some files off a REALLY old laptop that didn't have a CD Burner or internet/network access. I finally borrowed one from someone else, and then found this today, somehow on the floorboard of my car. I'm heading out today to buy a replacement. I recommend avoiding this one, it's caused me nothing but headaches.
Best so far.......2007-08-22
This has been the best flash drive i have had so far...i am constantly storing gis data, and my research project files, and it works great. I have never had a problem with it.
You get what you pay for.......2007-08-17
I love flash drives -- whoever created them should be sainted. But, this product is a flash drive... it works. You save stuff on it... so? My big problem is that the bloody cap is not connected to the drive... that'll take me about a month to lose (probably less... I'm trying to be optimistic). When will maufacturers of these wonderful little guys connect caps as a standard and apparently a small rivet or a 1" piece of nylon cord costs about $10 bucks to add to to these guys.
Hey, it is what it is. It works.
Keeps asking to be formatted.......2007-03-29
It does'nt work. It keeps asking to be formatted each time I plug it in. It looks cute, but it is totally useless. I keep formating and as soon as i pull it out and stick it back in , same thing happens again and again. What gives? What I am supposed to do? Any body can help me please.
ACP-EP Memory 1GB Flash Drive.......2007-03-14
Great product, great price and fast delivery. In Win XP it operates automatically. Formats and performs seamlessly. The bright LED that indicates it is ON is a great idea. I would buy another.

Satisfied but hopeful.......2007-02-20
The drive works well and is attractive but the surf board case seems fragile and it has already developed a hairline crack. I wish I'd hunted down the rubberized version.
Cool, Reliable but Flimsy.......2007-01-10
I bought this 1GB memory stick because of it's novelty - a surf board. Thought it would be a good departure from all the serious crap that's put out every year by overly serious technology companies.
The memory stick has performed well, and has lived up to expectations. The only thing that is sorely lacking is it's durability rating. The memory stick feels very flimsy in your hands and I'm afraid of inadvertently breaking the connection because it's very thin and weak. The memory stick probably has less rigidity then a #2 pencil, so you can see why I'm concerned about it snapping my fingers or in my bag.
works perfect.......2006-08-27
The flash drive works perfectly. I only wish there was a string or tie to keep the cap of the drive connected to the main body. It would be easy to lose.
