Kingston DataTraveler G4 - DTIG4/64GB USB 3.1 Gen 1/USB 3.0 G4 Flash Drive, 64 GB, Purple/ White

Over the past few years storage of all types have tumbled and usb flash sticks arent the exception to this. These are great value for the size your getting. Works a treat for me to transfer the kids favourite films to plug into their devices and TVs in order to give me peace and quiet! Transfer speeds (read/write) again very reasonable and do the job. Thick enough to stick in your pocket not lose it but not bulky to get in the way or be noticable. Will be buying again

I bought a handful of these excellent data sticks for my wife, as she needed them to distribute some large text files to various family members. I had already been using one for a few years in the car for tunesmitheric entertainment and found them to be reliable, easily loaded, easily searched on both PC and car system, and the varying temperatures of a car interior doesn't seem to faze it. I have seen a few people discuss the transfer speed. To be perfectly honest, read/write doesn't bother me. All I care about is capacity, robustness, reliability, and working life. Maybe this stick is or is not capable of lightspeed transfer, but so what? If we're talking a matter of an extra couple of minutes either way to load all of my car tunes, what's the problem? This is a personal view. If this *does* matter to you, then careful research and examination of such figures is highly recommended. For me, I was very happy to drop on to a splendid deal that provided my wife with tons of storage space for her files on each stick, with a cap that protected the USB plug. Lastly, I understand that they have delivered the data and continued to provide excellent service. And the one in the car is still kicking out the choons after a good couple of years and counting!

I didn't know this particular model. I saw it as a Kingston at a very good price per GB, so I didn't mind if it was slower than the newest ones. I was surprised. The read speed is quite constant, at about 100 mb/s, with peaks of 102. The write speed behaves in a funny way. It goes up and down, in a saw pattern. It goes up gradually, reaches about 50 mb/s, then drops sharply to 0, then goes up again and repeats the cycle until it finishes. I can't say the write speed with accuracy, but it should be 25, as it's the average between 50 and 0. The pattern can be seen in the picture. If you need a good, reliable storage, with a decent transfer speed, and the best price for a Kingston; this is the one. I am very pleased with it.

There isn't really much to say about this data stick, except, it has space for storage. Plenty of it. The read speeds are very quick, and the write speeds are just as good. The only exception with the write speeds is that you really don't want many apps running during the writing time. I have found it to slow it down to as slow as .3mbs. Although this isn't a problem for me, if you are in a hurry then this may be a problem. I will still highly recommend this to anybody who needs a data stick, as it is a very good item. The sellers is very fast with dealing with the order, and was very prompt answering questions.

I needed a USB flash drive to transfer work from one laptop to another and this did the job perfectly. I'm not amazing with tech, but this was easy to use with no issues whatsoever. The storage is more than adequate and it was priced very competitively on Amazon.

Well, all I really have to say is that I've been using these drives for years and only had one go wrong on me - even that may have been me. The only problem I've had - as today - is the internet behaving as if it's a sluggish tortoise that's groaning after a heavy meal. Took five - ten minutes to follow the link from the e-mail site, where the request to review was sent, to Amazon. The Kingston drives have been my first go-to. I have tried one or two others. I have no idea where they are.

These are now very cheap, which used to be a warning sign. However, mine came in a proper Kingston packaging, (back label 'Made in Taiwan'). The packaging specified USB 3.2/3.1/3.0/2.0, however it's USB 3.2 Gen 1 which is actually the same 5Gb/s speed as USB 3.0. That would support up to 550MB/s which as you'll see is well beyond the actual device limit, so no need for USB 3.2 gen 2 or 3. I tested it using the FakeFlashTest program; the size was 64GB as specified (which means 57.6GB available to the user once formatted). According to CrystalDiskMark, when plugged into a USB 3.0 port it read serial data at 120MB/s. Write was slower, 14-28MB/s; as usual small random read and writes were very much slower (10MB/s and below 1MB/s respectively). Despite the poor speed for small files, this is an amazingly good device for the price, (I paid £6.29 each).

Used this 64gb usb stick to back up game save data from my PS4 to be transferred to PS5 when it arrives. Not the fastest drive but not the slowest either, works perfectly fine and have personally never had a problem with Kingston drives. It is recognised by my TV, HP laptop as well as my Xbox and PS4 so I doubt you will have any compatibility problems when using with any of your devices. Pleased that it works as a key ring too as far less chance of losing it when grouped with my keys etc.

Posiblemente el mejor y más económico pendrive de 64 gigas en estos momentos, y encima es USB 3.0, además de económico, así que lo tiene todo. De este mismo modelo ya tenía el de 32 gigas, por lo que sabía que iba a lo seguro, y de hecho tengo "fichado" el de 128 gigas para comprar en no mucho tiempo, ya que tengo comprobado que, aparte de rápido, tampoco tengo problema en que me lo reconozca el tablet aunque esté formateado en NTFS -en FAT32 no admite archivos de más de 4 gigas, y en exFAT el tablet no puede reconocerlo-. Esta serie de Kingston ha salido mucho mejor que la anterior, la G3, en la cual los pendrives de 16 gigas fallaban a menudo si no tenías cuidado en la desconexión, y los de 8 gigas, que podían dar problemas desde el primer día. En resumen, muy buenas opciones de compra para pendrive.

Some people believe that high storage USB Flash drives have problems. Well, this one doesn't. I have purchased two Kinston 64 USB Flashdrives and they work right up to capacity. No trouble. Fair warning: Regardless of make all USB Flash drives will take a portion of the Flash Drive's memory. A small tiny portion is for drivers and such. But on a 64 GB drive you will only get 57.7 GB of memory to use. No joke! What the remaining 7.29 GB is for I have no ide. But this is standard for all Flash Drives. It think it is used to speed up transfers. Sort of like a RAM buffer. A week ago I purchased a 32 GB Scan Disk USB Flash Drive. It came with: special security software, extra drivers, and the option to use part of your Flash memory to further speed up you Flash drive. All in all 11.2 GB of THE MEMORY WAS ALL READY GONE. So my 32 GB USB Flash Drive ended up being a 21 GB Flash Drive. So be aware of what you buy! If it says it comes with all kinds of security features and other stuff then a good deal of your Flash Drive memory is gonna be eaten. Unless you really need it stick to normal Flash drives. I estimate that on a 128 GB Flash Drive that 15 GB of memory would be sacrificed. And in a 1 GB Flash Drive as much as 100 GB easy. These Kingston Flash drives are great. All my PAL DVDs and Utube videos are on them. They don't scratch or smudge like DVDs or Blu-ray. And they transfer much faster than it takes a DVD to burn.

Performante ed estetica, una USB 3.0 da 64GB che si rivela utilissima per coloro che devono portare sempre con sé file e dati indispensabili di una certa "pesantezza". La key arriva nella "classica" confezione della Kingston che risalta e mette in luce il prodotto; il colore verde dell'anello la distingue dalle sorelle di questa serie (8GB colore giallo, 16GB colore blu, 32GB colore rosso). Il design è semplice e pulito sia anteriormente che posteriormente (dove è stato riposto il logo Kingston e stampato il marchio CE); il tappo si toglie completamente dalla parte principale della USB. Si tratta, quindi, di un oggetto molto solido e resistente. L' unità viene fornita con una formattazione di tipo FAT32; la capacità utilizzabile è di 57GB (come si può vedere dall'immagine allegata). NB: nel caso in cui si scegliesse di formattare con Windows, a causa di un'impostazione predefinita, il sistema non offrirà FAT32 come opzione. Sarà quindi possibile formattare solo in NTFS o exFAT senza l'utilizzo di strumenti di terze parti. PRESTAZIONI - la scrittura, rispetto alla lettura, risulta molto più lenta. Non è una chiave USB da scegliere se avete intenzione di effettuare di back-up di molti piccoli file; ma come chiave per la lettura, non è per niente male! Molto consigliata per coloro che vogliono utilizzarla per vedere film (supporta benissimo file pesanti .mkv) su Smart TV di ultima generazione. Dai dati estrapolati durante alcuni test con CrystalDiskMark, risalta immediatamente il divario di prestazioni tra la velocità che si ha in lettura rispetto a quella che si può raggiungere in scrittura. Di seguito i risultati effettuati su Gigabyte 890FXA - UD7 + AMD 1090T Be + NEC controller USB 3.0 + sistema basato su Windows 7 x64 ed eseguendo cinque cicli da 1GB per un totale di 5GB: Scrittura: 84MB/s Lettura: 28MB/s Le prestazioni in lettura aumentano costantemente con l'aumentare della dimensione del file. SPECIFICHE: Dimensioni: 55x21 millimetri x 10,1 millimetri Temperatura di esercizio: 0°C a 60°C Temperatura di conservazione: -20°C a 85°C Compatibile con: Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista®, Windows XP, Mac OS X v.10.6+, Linux v.2.6+ (la connettività USB 3.0 richiede una porta USB 3.0) SPEDIZIONE - Amazon non tradisce mai! Rapidi ed efficaci, tutto come previsto. PREZZO - Molto buono e competitivo, considerando la qualità e la concorrenza.

The pen-drive is working effectively as it should. Its a good product compared to that useless sandisk pendrives. I highly recommend this kingston pendrive to other buyers.

Bon produit avec une grande capacité de stockage , pas de soucis avec cette clé usb pour l'instant. Le seul hic...Un peu trop grande. Il y a une boucle pour l'attacher à un porte-clés par exemple, ce qui est très pratique.
