5 out of 5 stars Finally enough space!   December 17, 2007
E. Platten (Riverside, CA United States)
17 out of 20 found this review helpful

I've had this thing for a little over two weeks and I love it. I finally have enough space to hold all my critical backups and then some. I can't speak to its durability since I've only had it for a short while, but I accidentally washed my 4gb Cruzer along with a load of laundry and not only did it still work perfectly afterward, THERE WAS NO LOSS OF DATA WHATSOEVER! These things are tough! Can't wait for the 16gb Cruzer so I can devote a full 4gb to Vista's ReadyBoost and still have 12gb left over for general data storage.


5 out of 5 stars Love this little drive.   January 29, 2008

The U3 applications take up very little space on the drive. I find U3 useful since I frequently use computers at 3 different locations. It's a great concept in my opinion. Everyone should try them before intantly hating them and uninstalling them. If you find that you don't need the U3 then of course you should uninstall it. It only takes a minute to remove the partition and convert the Cruzer into a normal flashdrive. If you decide you want the U3 system later it's easy to add it back again, but it does require a reformat so back up your information.

The most useful U3 application for me is OpenOffice 2.0. It is fully compatible with Microsoft office and allows me to work on presentations and papers from any computer I happen to be near. Firefox (browser) and Thunderbird (email) are my other two most used applications. These are all proven open source applications that have been around for years, and they are all available at no charge.

I own two 512mb Micro Cruzer drives , a 2.0gb, and the 8gb. I bought my first one about 2 years ago maybe? I have never had a problem with any of them. I really like the retractible plug and they have proven to be plenty durable for my purposes. They all live on lanyards and have been used daily while I'm at college. Very nice sturdy little gadgets.

I figured I'd chime in because I've had mine since Xmas and use it at work almost daily. No issues at all. works great. I suppose I might mention that the keyring is not advisable since it looks kinda week but I keep mine in my pocket.

This drive comes with pre-installed software, plus more can be downloaded from U3 website. Lots of space and the drive is very fast. Great drive for the money.

First the reason that I bought this drive is because my Verbatum 4 gb U3 drive broke. The drive itself did not break but the part that lets me hook it onto my key chain is what broke. The device still works just fine. So I have to say that I really enjoy this device. I have had it less then a month but so far I find that it works just as well as my last U3 drive and the extra space is great. At this point I would recommend the drive to anybody looking for a large U3 drive. I also would like to note that it is tough to tell from the picture but there is a small metal piece that the key chain loop go around unlike my old drive that was all metal. I am hoping that it will help and I do like that this one does not have a cover and is retractable instead.
