My brand new Sandisk Cruzer 32GB suddenly died causing me to lose all my data. Look at the web - Sandisks dying is not uncommon. Decided to buy the best because I can't afford to lose data. Patriot vs Corsair? Decided on Patriot because of compact size - not disappointed. Very fast flashdrive. No problems at all.

A bit pricey, but a good deal. Solid construction, fast data transfers for a usb2 device. Overall a good buy and I would buy again.

Best Product and Deal Ever!

Comment:
Fastest USB drive I've ever owned. Nice construction. But I'm sure I'm going to lose the end cap, which is loose.

Comment:
I received the item as promised. Great performance and capacity. I only gave quality a little lower rating than the rest due to the removable cap. Other than that this was a great value at a great price!

Works good, no problems

First foray into the Flash Drive market need to configure it as a bootable Vista researching

I have had this thing for over a year now and use it nearly every day. Performance wise, this flash drive is very fast and never has a problem copying or moving any type of file. It has nice rubber coating for protection with a rubber usb cap. I have no complaints whatsoever. Works Great! By far the best flash drive I have ever had, and I've gone through my share.

Expensive but worth it, I guess

As an IT manager in my exploited talents as a paralegal, because our backup system failed and had to be completely replaced, I purchased this flash drive to back up documents until our new server arrives. It works perfectly and will suffice in the interim of the arrival of the new server.

I ordered this 32 Gig flashdrive to back up files of my very large picture file on my computer and about anything else on my computer that I felt needed backed up. I use it as a safe guard to my second backup hard drive on my computer. Easier to move from one computer to another. It worked great. The only draew back is the rubber cap on one end that is loose and could get lost. Rubber seems to loose it's life after time and I wonder now if it will do as most rubber produsts do after time and start to flake off and get into the end of the flash drive. I feel a heaver plastic cap would have been better. Other than that its a good product.

Have not received the $10 rebate. Found the same item locally for $20 cheaper.

The Patriot flash drive is fast and reliable. What I don't like is the removeable cover for the end of the drive. Instead of retracting or scissoring shut for storage, this drive has a small rubber removable cover that is not attached. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I lose this.

This product is awesome! I owned a 16 GB Xporter and I needed a bigger one. I noticed the 64 GB is not on site anymore or I would have bought that one. It's like having a mini computer in your pocket. Plenty big enough for a lot of portable apps. I love the rubber casing and have never had a problem with it. I think it's definitely worth the money.

When using this device for media storage I format using NTFS for improved speed for copying large files. I also use this device as a multi-boot system recovery tool formatted with FAT32 for work. I have it setup to boot to four different live OS or Norton's Ghost for rebuilding PCs. I will be ordering another one in the near future!

Got a couple of these on different occasions. I like the fact that it has a big rubber casing, so it doesn't slip out of your hand while handling. Activity light is not too bright. Lifetime warranty. My MIR came in within two months which is fast. Very happy with these. Recommended.

This is my first flash drive purchase. I bit the bullet and got a huge capacity because I wanted to be able to create a second back-up of my files that could be taken off-site in times of need. The drag and dropping of files into this flash drive is a no-fuss, easy procedure. I've used it once where I had to bring files to a business associate to plug into her computer. It worked like a dream. I like the quick-release clip on the neck strap. It could use a small attachment or connector for the rubber cap protecting the business head of the unit as I would imagine that could get misplaced easily. This cap can go on the other end of the drive--similar to the cap of a writing pen--but with the small string connecting that end to the neck strap it's not a really clean, tight fit. Other than that, I'm hoping this is the answer to move me into a more current age of computer storage.

Awesome product at a reasonable price.

Comment:
The drive is somewhat slow, but I haven't had any problems with it other than that.

Comment:
Fast, reliable, relatively inexpensive.

Comment:
I had to reformat for it to be compatible with my Honda car stereo. Zero problems since. I don't know if it is as fast now, but I'm happy with it.

Comment:
Great value and extremely handy when transfering large files from work to home. Great for backups and beats carrying around a usb hard drive.

When I purchased this product I had problems on multiple computers trying to transfer large files ( 5gb +) like zipped archives etc. even after formatting it in NTFS. All running programs locked up and became unresponsive during transfer. Transfer speeds were very slow after the initial 4gb. It took me 12 minutes to transfer a 4 GB file, that's unacceptable, especially when your computer is locked up during transfer. Smaller files transferred slowly but didn't seem to lock up windows. It still took me 9 minutes to transfer 2.8GB! I thought the product was defective and sent it back to NCIX. They looked at it and assured me it was fine, so I can only come to this conclusion, it's a buggy USB drive.If you are a light user then the drive is fine, but I wouldn't pay $70 for it. If you value speed and stability then stay away! Spend your money on a bug-free product.Very disappointed

I have Ran this Flash Drive through the Washing Machine Twice.....IT STILL WORKS. I have 25GB of info on my drive and it will copy and paste to my Hard Drive in under 10 minutes. That is fast for a Flash Drive. This thing is great. Highly Recommend.
