is the flash drive itself good?

Yes, the flashdrive itself works fine! Just be aware that it is NOT the genuine item, is a slightly different toy, and does not come with the programming that the original does, but for just something to move files around on it works great.

Yes it is. Just like any other boring, non-transforming flash drive out there.

Well, I've always treated my gadgets very very carefully (I have flash drives from 2007 that still work lol). That said, this one broke quite easily and doesn't fit well in all USB ports. Also, it suddenly disconnects/ejects/unmounts for no reason. When I bought it it as ok but that lasted a week or so :S

Yeah. I use it between my computer to my xbox and then use it to carry my xbox 360 saves to friends houses and vice versa along with other data. I never come close to filling the massive 16GB and it works perfect. Sometimes when i go to push it into the USB slot it just pushes it back into the case but you just have to make sure you have it fully extended so it locks.

This will work fine just like any other external USB drive. If you don't want it formatted as NTFS, it can be easily formatted as FAT32 or whatever your need is.

Yes, probably so. This flash drive is blazing fast and much faster than the passport drive I have

I didn't see anything on the box stating that. It does work well, I use it almost daily and I haven't had any problems yet. I transfer files that are 8 -12GB's with this drive. Also it does seem work faster with the USB 2.0 computers then the 2.0 flash drives.

Yes, treat it as a standard removable usb drive, don't run the "backup" software.

Yes, but believe me, the flash drive is well worth the extra cash. There is so much room on it and the transfer process is soooo much faster.

I've owned the 64GB for over a year. The plastic around the keyring broke after a few months of use (so no more keyring usage for it), but the flash drive itself still works as good as it did on day 1.

I bought two of these devices and they both work well. It takes about a minute for the red light to change to blue when you turn it on. To open, I usually go to my computer, then I would choose drive with the removable flash drive. I am then able to open the folder with my information.I hope that this information is helpful to you.

NO! It corrupts random files; I bought two and I would not recommend it at all! I would say go ahead and pay a little extra for something more reliable!

You are doing everything correctly, the problem is with the battery inside, it only lasts for a couple of months, then you can throw it away as battery won't hold the charge for more than 5 minutes. It is a cheap pen drive, so expect it to last as what it is. Use it as a usb mass storage drive instead and purchase a more expensive and high end one if you want to really use for a longer period of time. And don't even try to replace the battery, because you won't find any like it in the market. Good luck.

It acts as a flash drive when connected via a USB cable; so as long as you can connect via USB your will be OK.

This is my first experience with an external drive. I've had no problem with this item. I do suggest you get a larger capacity drive as the prices have been falling lately on the external drives.

the usb is extremely friendly as you put it..I formatted it for my MAC,...which is simple to do...have used it almost every day from the day I purchased it...with absolutely no problems..

Sorry, but I won't be much help. I have not used a flash drive on that unit.
1573101
Yes. I have used the flash drive on both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports and it works well on both. Obviously much faster on a USB 3.0 port.

There is no junk of the Patriot 32gb, 64gb or the 128gb. Completely empty. You will enjoy the simplicity and speed of the Flash Drive.

No and it is not good on the Internet. You can use a USB had or thumb drive but t It doesn't do much else.
