Not a good and reliable storage drive
Jan 07, 2018 04:40 PM

Kingston flash drive is worst and not a reliable product. I also has a bad experience with this product is that I purchase the Kingston 16 GB flash drive about 4 months ago. I use the kingston flash drive for 1-2 days. The drive is not supports on my pc and it also did not supports on other pc. After I request shopkeeper to change the drive with the new one. Then he changes the drive to the new one. Then I inserts the drive in my pc, the drive stores all the data in it but when I runs the drive again on in pc, then it doesn't open on the pc. I again request to the shopkeeper to change the drive to the new one, then he refuse to change the drive.


There is no warranty or guaranty is given with this product. Overall his is the worst product for me.


So, I request you that don't buy this product in future because this is a worst product which did not gives you guarantied service on the product. By buying this product is a waste of money of yourself and also it harms your device or pc.

Size Small Performance Unbelievable
Apr 07, 2017 02:49 PM

Awesome Performance from this Disk But Low Capacity


An SSD mean Solid State Drive


its lo Costy Device & Comparing HDD its Consist Small Amount Of data Size


Like Exact SSD We Got In Same Prize More Data Byte Size Like In 4000 Rs We Got 500 GB In Hdd


But In Same Price We Get 160 Gb Only


But Comparing SSD To HDD


hdd is Slow because its consist magnetic disk that read electrons and save bytes


but its consist lot of power


Sdd is Fast because its consist resistor reader thats why its fast and its consist thin energy

Worst quality drive
May 07, 2016 01:42 PM (via Mobile)

I was purchased 8gb kingston flash drive from my local dealer. He was said its best flash drive and its very fast for data transfer too. The price is very affordable too. When I start using it I realise he was lied about its performance. Data transfer speed is very slow on it. After one month when I use it I was socked my all data was losted. I was stored my important files and documents which was very important. It was stop working.


I visited that dealer from where I was purchased it he said call the Kingston customers service they will provide full information about warranty. I call them and send emails but no one answered. Kingston products are very low in quality. I'm feeling disappointed. I don't recommended Kingston's flash drive to anyone.

Good products from Kingston
Mar 22, 2016 01:59 PM

Its been an era that Kingston is leading the Flash Drive market with a brand value. I am using Kingston Flash Drive from almost 5-6 years and never faced any issue.  I have used Kingston Flash Drive 16 GB 2.0 which was there for couple of years. Right now I am using Kingston Flash Drive 16 GB 3.0 which is just awesome and work like butter. There is rarely any port connection issue. Its long life and consistent performance is best of the Kingston.


Nowadays prices are dropped like hell and they are so cheap now. Their competitor is San Disk but san disk's life is not that good as compare to kingston. Currently the Flash drive I am using is 3.0 USB stick which gives speed of copying 30 MBPS plus which is just awesome overall data transfer time reduced by many folds.

Kingston Not a good flash drive
Sep 18, 2015 10:32 PM

I bought a 4gb kingston flash drive few years ago from a local store. It was my second purchase of a kingston pen drive.


I had a 1gb kingston flash drive already which was working fine. Thats why I decided to go for kingston again but the second time my experience was not good.


First 3 or 4 months 4gb pen drive worked fine and the transfer speed was also good but after that it stopped working suddenly and whenever I tried to insert in the usb drive of my computer a message came, the usb device attached is malfunctioned and pen drive was not working at all.


I dont know why the pen drive was not working may be because of virus or something else although I had an antivirus software installed on my computer already. After that I never tried Kingston again.

Not a good product
Sep 15, 2015 04:11 PM

I had purchased a 1 GB kingston pen drive in 2012. Had got the drive from a local retail store. It was a compact drive. Though I had heard about this brand but had never tried it.


Overall there are not much expectation from a pen drive except for that it can copy the data and retain it and should work uniformly. It did the same for about an year or so but then one fine day it stopped working . When I plugged in the drive into USB port it simply would not copy any data and give some error. I thought it might be an issue with local system but then whereever I tried I got the same message. Also tried formatting but of no help. Guess it got corrupted or something.


Since it did not perform it task for even an year so I am surely not too happy with the product and the brand and will certainly not try this again in the future; hence I will not recommend this to anyone as there are many other good brands in this segment.

Kingston DT-101 32GB - One of the best !!
Apr 12, 2015 07:18 PM

Well in 2009 I was in the need of a storage device which would store my important data and would be helpful in transferring bulk files from one PC to Another. So I looked at the market and only found pendrive and mmc with just 8gb of maximum capacity. And 16GB wer new at the market, but price wer equal to Gold.    16 GB pendrives wer available for 6000 rupees.


So I asked my Uncle who was working in United States that he would help me get one from US, becoz I heard in US 32GB pendrives wer out and prices wer pretty cheap there.


So, I asked my uncle to buy one, And he purchased a brand new Kingston DT-101 32GB purple color Flash Drive and gave it me a a month later.  The Price is - 3200 rupees.


Its 2015 and still the pendrive is working awesome without any problems.


Pendrives speeds are pretty low - just about 4 to 6 MB/s.  But pendrive Built quality is much better.  The pendrive is made with a transparent plastic body with a cover-able over revolving metal case.


Its a usual plug and play device.


The only fear I had was Warranty. Becoz since its purchased from US, I has doubt that the warranty will be valid in India or not. Warranty period was 3 yrs and thankfully the pen drive is still working nice.


PROS -


1) Built quality is good.


2) Pen drive has long life.


3) Three yrs International Warranty.


4) Compatible with 2.0 or 3.0 USB.


CONS -


1) Transfer speeds are between low to worst.  Just about 4 to 6 mb/s


2) Not that compact. Little bulkier.


Now the Same pendrive is available for just around Rs.700 to 900 in india.


And this Pendrive is very recommended to buy.


Overall, Kingston pendrives are recommended to buy.


The main Parallel competition of Kingston in Sandisk.  I too own about 2 Sandisc pendrive in good condition and over 7 yrs old.
