Centon USB 2.0 Pro (Grey), 4GB

I have been buying flash drives since they first came out and as their capacity gets larger and larger, I keep buying the next larger capacity ones. So far, the only one that has failed is the Centon DataStick Pro (4 GB). I filled it up with data as a back-up for my hard drive and just went to get some of that data and it can not be read. I took it to a friend and his newer computer can not read it either. I tried on a brand new Windows 7 machine and it can not read it. It is the first drive of this type that I have seen fail and I have quite a few different sizes and brands.

Outstanding. I work with several brands of laptops at work and this one works great with all brands.

So I NEEDED 4 gigs of space. Now heres the catch. -When you buy a 4 gig flash drive, apparently you arent buying a 4 gig flash drive. You are buying 3 gigs and change. Even though it is advertised as being a 4 gig drive. Makes NO sense to me!! So in my mind, I did not get what I thought I was paying for, and it was useless to me, and I had to buy another one, and this was just a waste of money. These products should be advertised correctly.

Good price for the storage.

This was a great affordable item. I am using this for a digital picture frame. It really works great. Thank you!

Purchased this flash drive at a military PX overseas since options are limited. I utilized this drive three times before it stopped working and my computer could not recognize it. What a waste of money. Avoid at all costs.

Worst USB Drive ever, it seems that it is built with the cheapest material. Buy Another Brand. It will definitely save you a lot of time.

I have been using this flash drive for about a year now, and I use it A LOT to transfer and backup files, on a daily basis. Yes, I have lost all files a couple of times and had to reformat the drive. But that happens so rarely compared to how often it does work that I think its almost insignificant. However, after a year of extensive use the USB connectors have worn out (I guess), and it takes some wiggling around for it to be recognized by the computer. Another note: I really like the small size of it, and its pretty sturdy. I also have a TwinMOS Mobile Disk III (the cap and the lock switch broke in no time) and one from ScanDisc (the cracking sound it makes when you push out the USB connector is annoying), but the Centon is simply much sleeker and less annyoing.

This stick is a great value for the money.

I have one of these. I used it once and it worked. Id only use it to transfer pics or docs that were already backed up on something else. Look if you cant get this in 2014 for under $5.00 dont get it!
