...and this is ReadyBoost ready?
By TimVerified Purchaser from Charleston, SC on 10/3/2007
Pros:
Easy to use, High Capacity, Portable
Cons:
Slow
Best Uses:
Additional Storage
Describe Yourself:

Primary use:

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The lag on data transfers from a 10000 RPM harddrive is insane. 1.2GB transfer takes over 10 minutes to perform. I had a Gigabank 8GB drive a few months ago that would do that size transfer in under 2 minutes. Something tells me the ReadyBoost advantages for this device would be limited, if even existent.

Great space for music, pictures, files
By RobertVerified Purchaser from Cedar Rapids, IA on 9/28/2007
Pros:
Easy To Setup, Easy to use, Fast, High Capacity, Portable, Reliable
Cons:
Eject before removing
Best Uses:
Additional Storage, Backup, File Transfer, Music
Describe Yourself:
Power user
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I like the huge amount of space. I've even loaded it with music and used it to test Home Theater systems with USB connections for music and pictures. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that it loads software and you have to use the U3 eject option to avoid the risk of loosing data. Having said that, I usually forget to do this, and other than the scolding I get from the software the next time I plug it in, I don't believe I've lost anything yet.
