Extremely small size.Fairly decent speeds: eight.5MB/sec compose, 26.5MB read. None so far. Bought mine back in October 2009 and it's been used daily for the past nine months. When not in use, it's kept inside a plastic zip bag with other drives, not in my pocket on a key chain.

- Extremely tiny- Quickly .. ㅖMB/s read and ㅂMB/s create- Appears sturdy and nicely created- Narrow and thin — Plastic doesn't grind against the metal USB port, so it is simpler to insert and doesn't ruin the drive. I owned a Kingmax Stick which is equivalent to this drive, but it was a little wider and thicker than this drive, so ultimately the sides of the drive wore out absolutely, exposing the circuitry. - Purple Newegg description is a small off, this is an 8GB purple Tuff 'n' Tiny drive. I carry the drive in my wallet and

Quite smaller, incredibly slick and quickly! We use USB flash drives at work to do everyday backups and this a single beats them all in speed. (I ran a comparative test with ADATA less costly drive of the same size: 8GB. It took ADATA about 1+ minute to write a 220MB file, although this drive did the job inside 15 sec! Very same file size!)Another advantage is truly having it on your essential chain and ask unsuspecting men and women, "What is it?". You'd be shocked at the range of answers you may possibly get :) Very smaller... and I imply Very tiny. The only way not to shed this drive is to hold it on your important chain. 1 other downside is that it can slip out of a USB jack if you have a heavy set of keys. It could also be challenging to insert it into a personal computer the ideal side up from the 1st attempt, but that is not a difficulty. If you really feel no reaction, basically flip it more than. I had no concept the business came to a point of producing such a small memory device at such a high capacity.

Little, Huge Capacity, Straightforward, Rapidly, etc. Loved this point for about a year. Just not too long ago I was making use of it, and I pulled it out of my computer and it shut the whole thing down promptly. No warning no shut down method, just lights out. Then I was employing it again, and I put it into the USB drive, and once more lights out. I tried it on one more pc with the very same result. I carry it in my pocket, and dont do too a lot to shield it. But at this point it is a time bomb in any personal computer. I would purchase again, if i didn't strategy on carrying in my pocket. you can see where the contacts are exposed from put on.

Was a good product- superb form factor, convenient, reasonably priced. Died after just over one year of use. Fortunately didn't have any irreplaceable information on it (I hope- I didn't use it that often).

Tiny Not Tuff Have been by means of about a half dozen of these ƔGB version) after advising previous employer to obtain them for our "stock". Not one particular lasted a year; all you get is a Windows error saying there was a malfunction (if that). I don't trust the exposed contacts drives anymore at all.Sent e mail to Verbatim support a couple of weeks back to see if there was anything at all they could do and didn't get any response at all.

Small, Fast I attached the flash drive to my keys with the lanyard...and my keys are generally in my pocket...generally.Nicely my first 1 lasted about a week. I RMA with Newegg and received a new a single. The new one lasted much less than a week. I have had less costly, free, flash drives last longer than this.The only words that can describe my encounter is Disappointment, and regret. Just stay away, you will thank me. Manufacturer Response:Dear Consumer, Please contact me with regards to your expertise. Also, please don\'t forget to always follow the "Safe Removal" procedure. Removing a drive that is in use, can corrupt the directory and render the drive inoperable.Thanks,Dean Linkerdean.linker@verbatim.com

Little and robust, easy in use. Accidentally removed V-Safe software program from the drive and ended up with non-usable private partition of the drive and even with out capacity to remove private partition to use drive's complete capacity in non-secure mode.Verbatim net web site has V-Secure software for many Verbatim drives' forms but this a single. I tried all accessible V-Safe software program, but none worked. I filled on-line for technical support and received no reply for much more than three weeks. Lastly I named Verbatim help and spoke to one of their representative. She confirmed that there is no software program obtainable for download from Verbatim website and the only solution I have is shipping drive for replacement, paying shipping each ends and waiting about a week besides delivery time. I decided not to use such alternative, as it would price me a lot more than new drive.I am placing an order for less high priced drive from additional user-friendly vendor.

truly truly smaller, and really easy, data transfer seems just as rapidly as other devices. I carry this on my important chain in my pocket and it takes a beating and nonetheless operates. Huge capacity on a little device. so little that individuals don't realize what it is or how to use it. It is annoying to have my keys hanging from the pc I am making use of it on, but then I don't forget it. I also don't like how depending on the usb slot you connect it to it is a little loose, but that is not genuinely this devices problem. I was worried about the top quality of this factor at first, as the other reviewer mentioned it didn't final. I carry it in my pocket along with other keys, a knife, and modify and it nonetheless operates. I am a little worried that it could break but it is so little that this could not even be attainable. Contrary to the other reviewers, I would advise this item to anybody that wants particularly mobile storage.

This was ga great item the 5 occasions it worked. Soon after only five makes use of and carrying it on my keychain for a couple of months it failed to read. I tried four various computers, all with no responce. I downloaded my invoice and referred to as Verbatim to replace the item but they asked for the lot quantity which I did not have. Apparently it is located on the packaging and not the device it self. I understand what TUFF signifies. TUFF to get Verbatim to replace their item and TUFF for me to purchase anything else they manufacture. Preserve your packaging if you ever obtain Verbatim merchandise. Manufacturer Response:Dear Client, Please make contact with me, dean.linker@verbatim.com. I'll assist you with the replacement procedure. Thanks.

I have always loved Verbatim merchandise. This was no exception. My favorite Flash Drive.-- Solid construction. No parts to break off or pieces to lose.-- Tiny and flat enough I can carry numerous in my wallet and can barely notice them.-- Ultimate in portability-- Fantastic speed for such a tiny drive-- Low cost -- Could be quicker, but the trade-off for portability and strength is worth it! Positive, as soon as in a though I find a bad one. But not near as several as I do with other brands and other name brands. I don't complain about their service simply because I can't expect a organization to bend more than backwards or pay for shipping on a defective product when I only paid ษ. Their profit margin can't be that high to justify it.Excellent component is, it's only ษ and can be replaced promptly by just obtaining a new 1.

The smaller form factor is wonderful. The lanyard is incredibly robust. It was wonderful to show off. Regrettably it died!! Within a month it just stopped working and the computer would not recongnize the drive. I named tech support and they are sending a replacement, but this is disappointing and not a confidence builder. We'll see how the second 1 does. Color selection would be good. Purple is not my color.

Size, durability, speed not no cost? I purchased 1 for myself and my dad, due to the fact then a few guys I work with have picked them up soon after seeing it. All reliable and fast. I'm going to get the 16gb version to do a full Ubuntu install on.

small Not dependable. Soon after 1 month, most of which it was spent just plugged in to a USB hub, the drive failed.I got a msg saying: can't write to the drive, please format it. The capacity read at 8 MegaBytes (not Giga, as it shoud) Going through the replacement method with Verbatim now... on the other hand the data on the drive is gone.Good to have a tiny drive, but it's absolutely not tough... I actually only carried it in my pocket nowadays for the initial time. Manufacturer Response:Dear CM, I apologize for the difficulty. The Verbatim TNT is covered by our lifetime warranty. Please contact me at dean.linker@verbatim.com for aid with replacement.Also, I would like to pass on a beneficial common tip, which can get rid of a leading cause of USB drive malfunctions, namely removing the device with out utilizing the safe to eject hardware icon. It is usually suggested to use the safe to eject hardware icon and waiting for the "The device can now be safely removed" message before removing USB devices. Or if on a Mac, drag the removable disk icon to the trash prior to removing the device.If the USB drive is accidentally removed during a file save ore directory or file allocation table update, then the file structure can be corrupted. Results are in finest case, an unreadable file, or worse case, a absolutely nonfunctioning device. In some cases, the operating method could be attempting to access the device, so to be safe, always use this process.
