Silicon Power 4GB 180x Speed USB Flash Drive

Rating

I previously purchased the 2GB version of this drive and was so pleased that I immediately ordered the 4GB version. I love the ease with which I can transfer files from my Mac to my PC, the transfer rate is the fastest of all the flash drives I own (although I haven't actually clocked it - haven't had the time to get that technical with it yet) and the package is both attractive and clever. My kids call it my "switchblade drive." The spring-loaded mechanism works beautifully, it is easy to retract and I say this as someone who has RA and needs small objects to be particularly manageable. The most impressive thing about this drive is its storage capacity - right out of the package it's 3.84GB, impressive for any 4GB flash media. Too often as much as 25% of a flash drive's storage capacity is lost to the factory-set formatting, which is permanent. A 4% loss is nothing short of impressive. If you are looking for a 4GB USB drive that delivers almost all of its advertised storage capacity at a price that is entirely reasonable, I would strongly recommend this product.

I like them. I wished that it would have a bigger discount. I also hoped it would not take as long to deliver it. over all I was pleased with the whole deal. Thanks.

I have purchased a 2GB already and now with the purchase of the 4 GB drive I am at ease with the amount of information that can be held and carried. I will buy another and give to a friend. I carry 2 in a lipstick case and they fit perfectly. Would highly recommend to all.

You're paying for the cool design, but the drive itself is easy to use, with a fast transfer rate and a good deal of storage. I didn't need (or want) any extra security for the drive which would just take up more of my 4gb. This is simply plug and play. The only real drawbacks are the lightweight housing and the lack of a flap to cover the usb when retracted.

A Little slow on delivery compared to other products purchased same time. But installed without a hitch on two computers, XP and Vista. Seems to perform well so far and I can perceive a transfer speed gain over my other flash drives. Am happy with the product. Might buy the larger capacity model if price gets more attractive.
