DataTraveler Micro 256GB USB Flash Drive | Ultra-Small Premium Metal Design | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | Speeds up to 200MB/s | DTMC3G2/256GB,Silver

I’ve had one of these on my keys for a couple years now and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s very durable and very compact, I’ve never had it malfunction in the years I’ve been using it. It may not be the fastest drive but compactness and ruggedness is why you buy this flashdrive. I work in industrial automation and I always am making backups and transferring programs from one system to another. This keychain flashdrive has saved my bacon more times then one. I also keep several of my favorite movies on this flashdrive which you can then plug into the back of any smart tv and watch anywhere. My only recommendation to Kingston is to beef up the metal body end of the USB A-plug as it has deformed inward on me slightly a few times, nothing that couldn’t be straightened out easily with a flathead but I’d like to see it’s end look straight all the time and not have to worry about it before I plug it in. I hope Kingston will release a durable all metal keychain version of their dual end usb-A and usb-c flash drive soon as some laptops only support USB-C nowadays. But for now this works great for 95% of my needs. Can’t recommend enough!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This is exactly what I need. I am often on the run and my other USB drives all broke. I always keep a small USB drive on my keychain and it's nice to have a small compact thumb drive that is durable and won't break.Durability:My previous USB thumb drives were all plastic shells and where I'd put them on my keychain...that part would often snap off. This thing is solid as a rock and has had no issues. I love it and it's super tiny on my keychain.

I got this to keep all of my critical data backed up to a USB that I carry everywhere. I put it on my key ring. It reads and writes quickly and without problems. It can be a touch tricky to pull out because of its small size. So far so good as far as endurance, Will update.

Great item. Fast transfer speeds for what I use it for. I like backing up on multiple items, and this makes that possible. 256GB drives make this case 3TB of storage! And I can back up a few times to be safe. I write and must ensure I have a few copies in case one gets damaged.

This is a very compact drive that I attached to my car keys with critical files to always carry with me in an emergency. I am not a "prepper," but having lived in areas that were prone to some catastrophic events like hurricanes, forest fires, and tornado I learned that a few simple preparations can make your life easier if you have to evacuate an area with little notice. Having important files with me is one of those simple things that matter if you need it.

Most certainly NOT USB 3.2 speed. Very slow. But very unobtrusive. Place a couple on your keyring and your won't even know they're there. If you want fast, cheap and metal check out the Samsung Bar Plus units. Twice the length, but small enough and they fit nicely on your keychain as well.

I use the 64gb and never had an issue and so far I've bought several (ten or so?) over the years from different accounts before making one solid account specifically for Amazon. Transfer speeds could be better. It's like old LAN, the more data you transfer, the slower it will end up on (8mb/s) but I've never had one fail abd I've never had stop transferring which is more than 100% of all external drive cables I have tried.

This works as one would expect. It now resides in the USB jack in my car with a LOT of music on it.

Serves the name right, micro. Small in size but not as tiny as Cruzer Fit. Metal built is really good and doesn't get crazy hot as a few other metal ones. Performance as expected. Bit pricey than others in this capacity though.

Great product! Great size for key chains!

Bardzo dobra jakość. Warto dopłacić o nie wnetwiac się że coś nie działa!

Bought a pair of these to replace / increase my previous plastic 64 Gb thumb drives. Nothing to complain about.Note: The picture shows 64 Gb, but the product is in fact 128 Gb.

Bra byggkvalitet, metall överallt och spricker inte som konkurenternas plast motsvarighet gör.
