Conclusion
There's not really much I can say with this review other then to sum up all the good and bad. While this drive is relatively small in storage size, it makes sense because this is the entry level model. It can be used to introduce U3 drives to the greater public. It's fast, durable and reliable in its storage, which makes it very dependable. Combine that with the U3 technology where you can make your desktop portable and you have a winner.
The only downside I have found with this drive is that U3 isn't available on other platforms. Of course that has more to do with U3 then with the drive itself, but I'm being hardpressed to find a con.
