It appears to me the Lexar colors and the GB amount do not always match on the Amazon.com shopping site. Has this caused any problems for buyers of these JumpDrive Flash drives at Amazon.com? I do not want to have a go-around with Amazon or Lexar. I...

Well Lampe, you are correct. I bought the 128 GB Lexar thumb/flash drive which in one image shows the USB 3.0, the 128 GB, and the Lexar label all green while the body is black and white. Then, when you click on the title, the image becomes all gray. The good news is that the product arrived with the proper colors. I presume the 64 GB one would be OK, i.e., green. So, I suggest that you will be OK. But, you might want to check with Amazon.com on this issue. (I will be doing just that!)

There is an article on Ars Technica you may want to read called "Putting hard drive reliability to the test shows not all disks are equal". I don't think Amazon allows URLs to posted here so you can use Google to search for the web page. There are interesting results shown for the different drive manufacturers.

I have actually returned this drive. It works ok on my computer without problem. I instead keep ADATA UE700 64GB and Lexar Triton 64GB.

Buyer, I can't speak for the other vendors but we list ours as New Bulk / New Pull which is the same thing. We pulled these out of a server that we needed to put 300GB drives into so that is why we list ours this way.. In addition, We also offer a 1 YEAR WARRANTY which most other vendors will not even come close to .. Please let us know and thanks a lot All Computer Parts Customer Service.

I've used a 4GB Patriot flash drive (cost about $10) that works fine on my 46xbr6. That particular drive is formatted FAT32. A 1GB Sony flash drive that came with a Blu-Ray player is formatted FAT, so I'd guess virtually any usb flash drive will probably work.The 46xbr6 photo viewing feature works great, even for deeply nested file systems (folders within folders - - -). I've selectively browsed photos from a file system containing hundreds of folders & thousands of jpeg files.It's strange that Amazon's comparative descriptions of the over & under 40" versions of XBR6 ignore the absence of usb in the smaller series, ignoring the fact that it's a MAJOR feature.

eBay is crawling with these fake drives. I've told Amazon about these drives but they will not do anything about the sellers that peddle them. Its buyer beware. Don't commit any critical information to this drive. Stop using it now. Start the process to get your money back. If the deal is too good to be true, it probably is. Don't expect to get a legitimate 256GB flash drive for $35.

I had no problems with inconsistencies between Lexar and Amazon. I bought the green 64GB winter 2012 and it came just as described.

Well I assume you want a really fast drive. If so I would recommend the Lexar 8GB JumpDrive Lightning. For whatever reason it is still not available on Amazon.com but I'm sure a Google search can yield some results. However the runner-up would probably be SanDisk 8 GB Cruzer Titanium. Hope this helps.

I went to Staples to find out. All their 500GB have the same new light pattern, so it's definitely not fake (why would Amazon sell fake stuff?). At Staples, the smaller drives have the older light pattern. I like the old one better, but this new one is not that bad so I decided to keep it, since I got it at a really good price.

I ordered three from three sellers, even though the listing said the driver was included none came with any disk. I ordered three of these from three sellers as a test, two turned out to be the same seller, same return ID and shipper and item, but one was different and the unit I received though it looked the same, same case and sticker, had a different gold connector and a different PID. So it did not work on the linux environment I needed it to. All sold on the same Amazon page! This is not right and Amazon has too low a standards of integrity for me. As do the Chinese sellers who sell "about the same" items on the same Amazon page. That's not right!

I've noticed a lot of 1 tb drives are scarce. People seem to want them in their computers so regular sites like newegg, tiger direct or directron don't have them or the prices seem to have climbed.

Works but my computer used 3-4 cd's. I recommend getting a 64GB Flash drive. Longer lasting, less of a headache and it will save you more time. It's worth it. Amazon has good deals. PNY, Kingston or San Disk work well for me. Right now Amazon has them for a great deal that you can't get in local stores.

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.

And my experience - I've purchased like 5 of them in the last year, 1 of them (8 GB) failed after a few weeks, all pictures/videos lost. So many people complain here the same. They have a big percentage of lemons. If you do buy one of these, be sure to backup the entire card as often as possible - at least on a daily basis, or whenever you take new photos/videos.I have also been using for so many years Sandisk, and never had a problem with them. They are a bit more expensive, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Sounds about right. There are a couple of smaller partitions for Chrome OS (ranging from 512 bytes to 64 MiB; I've never particularly liked the term, but it is the correct one when talking about base 2 quantities.) Two 2 GiB partitions, then the main one which is sized at 115 GiB. Then deduct what's been synced from Drive, messing with base 10 and 2 conversions, and some for the GPT partition table. Besides, defective flash memory wouldn't typically fail by indicating lower capacity. Failure modes are more along the lines of: "won't turn on at all", "0 capacity and failure to mount" or "data loss and corruption after writing beyond a certain capacity" (this one can be a little more subtle and will occur when dealing with counterfeit flash cards and the like).

the drive i bought was sold by amazon and was in a sealed package. the first thing i did before opening it was to verify the serial # with wd's website. this has happened to me once before, i sent it back & got reimbursed, but had to pay shipping. always make shure it is OEM product so you get the warranty.
