It's a nice little flash drive. I use it for backup purposes, and it works great for that. I like that it doesn't try to load a lot of extra software when you plug it in. It simply makes itself available for backing data up.
The one improvement that they could make is to make a retractable USB connector, instead of having a removable cap. Other than that, it's a great device.
