It's a pretty good chip, and it works relatively fast. The only problem I have with it is the amount of memory. 4GB is hardly enough for anything. But other than that, works great :)

Kingston is a great brand. Great quality. A lot of storage. I can't count how much stuff I have on mine, and still have mass space left.

In my country it is considered the best brand of storage not only by his memories, principally for their USB! Is really impressive the amount of information and data that is can save on them, took 3 years with the mine and still has much space hahaha
This was a great USB drive as it was durable and lost quite awhile. I needed to reformat it to work for my MacBook, but afterwards it ran like a champ. Good speed for transferring files, but not fast enough to run your OS. For that I would recommend using USB 3.1 2nd gen or thunderbolt 3.
I really love Kingston, is a awesome brand. I can't count how much stuff I have on my USB and still have more and more space. All the Kingston products have great quality so definitely I recommend it!!!
I like to buy a good quality USB memory stick from a reputable manufacturer. No point buying a cheap and nasty one only to have all your data disappear. Kingston is a good brand, it's a quality product, and it comes with software for backups. Only down side, the software doesn't work on Macs.
Pros Very secure little device Encryption app is in the device Cons The cap isn't attached to the device when removed; seems easy to lose the cap
The fact that it limits the number of password tries allows security with a shorter password
This USB is FIPS 140-2 level 3 certified, so it is supposed to be VERY secure. When you plug in the USB, it has pre-loaded software on it that you need to use to configure the USB, such as setting the password, read only option to protect your pc incase the USB has a virus on it. This USB will re-format after 10 failed password attempts. This is not a setting you can remove or configure. It's supposed to be tamper resistant from physical attacks. Con: Extremely expensive, especially for a 4GB stick
